I tucked the journal back into my pocket and put my hands over my ears.
Out of an old habit, I even mumbled a prayer.
Over the din of the storm, I heard someone cackling.
I looked up, tears streaming down my face.
And I saw Agnes laughing at me.
Agnes raised her bony finger and pointed at me.
Her laughs got louder and louder, rivaling the winds.
I finally knew what was happening.
She still owed the creature a soul.
She'd killed those men, even Jim's father.
She probably planned on landing a fifth, but the stroke was an unexpected curveball.
Now she was all alone with only Jim and nurses to help her.
And she wasn't going to hurt Jim.
Her next victim would be one of us.
Most of them had the good sense to leave when weird shit started happening.
And now, I was going to be number five.
