The air was thick with tension as the group huddled in the walk-in closet, the faint hum of the mansion's ancient air conditioning drowned out by the guttural moans echoing through the halls. Hendrick stood by the door, his bloodied hands gripping the clothes hanger like a weapon. His face was pale, but his eyes were sharp, focused.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVYCUAXFzv
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWy6agB4nw
"We need to move," I said, my voice low but firm. "Now."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX38aDOhRL
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr4UC5dgrj
Evelyn nodded, her usual confidence replaced by a quiet determination. "My mom's room is down the hall. There's a back door that leads to the garden. We can get out that way."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm2oDSSb3b
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8TH2pN2jP
"And if it's locked?" Maya asked, her voice trembling.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5G3exPunl
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6MLhEO0Co
"It's not," Evelyn said, "Mom is always forgetful, so she leaves the key in the keyhole."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEHgrYXvRm
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaQpix8H7O
We exchanged uneasy glances. Evelyn seemed genuinely confused about what was going on in her own house. Hopefully, she was right about this.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS56X4HdIQh
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQduNofP66
"Stay close," I said, stepping toward the door. "And don't stop for anything."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6x4r2fvfn
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKR2scqtK0
I opened the door slowly, peering into the hallway. The shadows seemed to shift and twist, the faint sound of footsteps echoing in the distance. The creature was close—too close.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MwDKn68WY
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSTzWDddbl
We moved as one, our footsteps soft but hurried. Evelyn led the way, her familiarity with the mansion guiding us through the labyrinth of hallways. Hendrick brought up the rear, his eyes darting nervously behind us.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXXeNxB74F
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dCXysil1O
The moans grew louder, and the air grew colder. The creature was following us.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3GEv5JV1m
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi0efhGMBB
"Faster," I whispered, my heart pounding in my chest.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcjNdhuRZe
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEtCKvEtoG
We turned a corner, and the hallway seemed to stretch on forever. The sound of the creature's footsteps grew louder, closer. I glanced over my shoulder and saw it—a hunched, humanoid figure with glowing eyes and a grotesque snarl. It was gaining on us.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4eWBc0EUh
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh21tSpGPT
"Run!" I shouted, pulling the others forward to get ahead of me, starting with Sasha, Masha, Maya, then Evelyn.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v85T3HFbe
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBLRY7KHqD
But Evelyn froze, her eyes wide with terror as she stared at the creature. "No," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "It's… it's Grandpa."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr97eiz9k4Y
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1xnciSpjW
Hendrick didn't hesitate. He stepped in front of Evelyn, his clothes hanger raised like a weapon. "Go!" he shouted, his voice firm. "I'll hold it off!"246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx2nGUT2WP
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe1saWcjn5
"Hendrick, no!" Maya screamed, her voice breaking.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3jlmBsTSt
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizq5n4DhDR
"Just go!" Hendrick snapped, his eyes never leaving the creature. "I'll buy you time!"246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKoaA2aDYE
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2vT39fgBc
The creature lunged, its claws slashing through the air. Hendrick swung the hanger, the metal clanging against the creature's arm. It roared, a sound that sent shivers down my spine, but Hendrick stood his ground, his face pale but determined.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIkUzugN2S
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKHyoO5lHO
"Go!" he shouted again, his voice strained.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyo6sartqJ
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9D4KjHx2P
I grabbed Maya's arm, pulling her away. "We have to go!" I said, my voice tight with urgency.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHLrQaTGIi
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHSKL93STP
Maya hesitated, her eyes filled with tears, but she nodded. We ran, a loud defiant scream from Hendrick coming from behind us. I didn't look back. I couldn't.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeaaHeN8SS

...246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGcjtdIMtp
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UvgwKm9Vu
We reached Evelyn's mom's room, the door slightly ajar. Evelyn pushed it open, her hands trembling. "This way," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8nr978q4e
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUehQRiHVV
The room was dark, the air heavy with the scent of dust and decay. The back door was visible at the far end, but before we could move, a low, guttural moan filled the room.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPt3kmGK9x
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6tvg41NHE
Another creature stepped out of the shadows, its glowing eyes fixed on us. It was smaller than the first, but no less terrifying.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZFQ3WlzRr
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UM8VBKsQ5
Masha quickly grabbed a lamp from a nearby table and hurled it at the creature, the glass shattering against its chest. The creature seemed unaffected by Masha's move, roaring instead, its attention fully on Masha.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPmfEXgNle
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTDZL2qoCK
"What the hell are you guys doing!" Masha shouted, her voice sharp. "Run."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf3geaeJL2
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0ElTfhQN0
I hesitated, my heart pounding in my chest. "Masha..."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cAPQxSYJ0
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxCLD2AAlY
"Don't worry," she said, forcing a small smile. "I'm right behind you."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeTmJ5XFVp
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx9Kf47ZEB
We started for the door, but the creature grabbed Masha.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCnwhsP6eS
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BlzZjUM9Y
"No!"246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbVw2Zt5wF
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNftq1ydV29
"Keep going!" she insisted, struggling against the creature's grip.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFlRcdQbw4
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElMALOSgnm
And so we did. I glanced over my shoulder just in time to see the creature lunging at her, its claws slashing through the air. Masha didn't scream. She just looked at us, her eyes filled with a quiet resolve, and a small smile on her face just before the creature's claws tears into her sternum, separating her body in two.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTm16IjJhk

246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPvDSDnqY0
We burst through the back door, the cool night air hitting us like a slap. The garden stretched out before us, the moonlight casting long, eerie shadows across the grass. But the relief was short-lived.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4iaoLDurJ
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpst06l3CS8
The sound of the creatures' moans echoed behind us, growing louder with each passing second. They were coming.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmuzzldBpb
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZB9oALu8tH
"We need to keep moving," I said, my voice tight with urgency.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhekoGJrE9C
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BghuOnJog
Maya nodded, her face pale but determined. Sasha was silent, her eyes filled with tears. Evelyn looked back at the mansion, her expression unreadable.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBYgnW5SQx
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIi43vnImK4
"Come on," I said, grabbing her arm. "We can't stop now."246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfO5nbNo27K
246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJArESdnKoR
We ran, the sound of the creatures' footsteps echoing behind us. The garden seemed to stretch on forever, the shadows twisting and shifting as if alive. But we didn't stop. We couldn't.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteSodr34rM
