Quotes
Houses don’t kill people. People kill people.
There was a presence in that house, and it was not holy.
Get out! Get out! Get out!
It was as if the house was alive, breathing.
The windows seemed to watch them.
The house wanted them to stay.
Every room had its own chill.
The walls whispered secrets of the past.
There were things in the shadows.
Silence was louder than screams.
Something was waiting for them.
The house fed on fear.
