The Midnight Visitor

In the old woods, some secrets are buried deep. But the earth

never truly keeps them. Elias knew the folklore, but he never

believed the dead could find their way home. The visitor arrived after the final

bell. A presence that carries the chill of the grave. Three knocks.

Measured. Patient. The sound of wood hitting bone instead of flesh.

Look closely at the threshold. For those who return, the world begins

to freeze.
