My friend Clara and her family actually abandoned their three story townhouse in Charleston suddenly back in two thousand and eight. Her mother was a total stoic who treated every structural anomaly like a minor maintenance issue. For instance, if a heavy oak cupboard door unlatched itself and swung open against the wall, it was an unlevel hinge. If the hallway smelled like wet iron in old well water, it was just the city's coastal storm drains backing up through the foundations. Looking back, her mum was clearly running an exhausting daily campaign of damage control, just to keep Clara and her younger sister from packing their own bags and sleeping on the sidewalk. Clara was ten at the time, sharing a massive drafty corner room with her sister, Lily.
Because the house had this freezing, high ceilinged density to it, the kind of cold that seemed to radiate outward from the plaster, rather than the windows, they had a strict habit of leaving the bedroom door wide open so that they could see the pale yellow glow of the safety light plugged into the baseboard by the top of the stairs. Now one night, Clara woke up because she felt an immense suffocating weight pressuring down on the mattress right next to her hip. The air in the room had gone completely still and completely cold as well. Then she heard somebody breathing and but with like lungs full of fluid, is what she said. A shallow breath that sounded like somebody was drowning. Clara shifted on the mattress, turning over to tell Lily to move back over to her own side of the bed.

The indentation on the edge of the mattress was Wasn't a person. The fabric and the foam were simply compressed down six inches, forming a deep and narrow hollow right next to Clara's legs, as if an invisible ninety pound iron weight was resting perfectly balanced to the springs, and As she stared at the empty sheets, the fabric inside the indentation slowly shifted, twisting slightly as if whatever was sinking into the bed was turning its weight around to face her.
Clara she didn't scream because her throat completely locked up all of a sudden. She scrambled backward out of the covers, her bare feet hitting the old pine floorboards, and sprinted out onto the dark landing toward her parents' room at the other end of the corridor. Right as her heels hit the carpet though, she hit something damp. There was a small square of carpet that was now completely wet and Now, in her room was a small square attic access panel in the ceiling, a heavy piece of solid waterlogged plywood that required a step stool and actual physical force to lift it. And as she was running she heard something come from there, so she looked up, and And it didn't drop down, but it was raised into the crawl space by about an inch and
