Intro. You step into your house and something feels wrong. The place is quiet, too quiet, almost like someone paused the whole room. You take a few slow steps and notice small things out of place. A cushion on the couch is tilted. A drawer is open by an inch. Your heartbeat starts to rise. Then you hear it. A tiny shuffle from your bedroom. You push the door open and freeze.
