In the quaint town of Meadowgrove, a sudden storm raged. The old Victorian house stood tall, defiant against the wind. Inside, the clock struck midnight. A shadow moved stealthily down the hallway. A door creaked open, revealing a dimly lit room. A figure stood over the bed, a glint of metal in hand. The victim stirred, eyes widening in terror. The room echoed with a chilling scream. Then, silence. The murderer vanished into the night.
