The Midnight Knock
The moon hung low in the sky, a bloated, sickly thing that cast an eerie glow over the ancient town of Hollow Creek. The clock on the wall ticked away the interminable seconds, each one echoing like a funeral knell in the silent house.
Detective Emma Hartley sat at her desk, poring over the case files that had haunted her dreams for weeks. The wicked had struck again, and the town was on edge, waiting for the other shoe to drop. She had just closed the last file when she heard it - a soft, almost tentative knock at her front door.
Emma's heart pounded in her chest as she made her way to the door. Who could be calling at this hour? She peered through the peephole, her breath catching in her throat. Standing on her doorstep was a figure cloaked in shadows, a hood pulled up to hide their face. The wicked had come calling.
A Message from the Grave
Emma hesitated, her hand hovering over the doorknob. She could walk away, pretend she hadn't heard the knock, and go back to her life. But she knew she couldn't. The wicked had chosen her for a reason, and she had to face them head-on.
With a deep breath, she opened the door, revealing the figure standing on her doorstep. The hood fell back, revealing a face that was both familiar and wicked - it was the face of a victim, a girl who had gone missing weeks ago, presumed dead. But here she stood, her eyes burning with a wicked intensity.
"Can I come in, Detective?" the girl asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "I have a message for you from the grave."
