The Echo in the Walls
Author:Ricky Arnold
Our dream home became a living nightmare. It started with whispers and shadows, things my rational mind could dismiss. But then it began to wear the faces of those I love. It learned their voices, their laughter, and twisted them into instruments of terror. I made a mistake. I looked back when I should have run. I acknowledged it. Now, it's not just in the house anymore. It has my phone number, it knows my name, and it wants to wear my face next.
