...continuation of The Landlady… Billy started to feel dizzy. The bitter almond taste started to come back. “I’m going to bed.” Billy said. “Okay dearie.” she said. As Billy climbed the stairs he started to get dizzier. He went to his room and fell straight asleep. In the morning he felt surprisingly chipper. The sweet old lady asked, “So are you heading to the office today?” Billy felt this weird sensation that he had to go but he didn’t want to.
“No, I think I’ll stay another night. You know, explore a little.” Billy said very calmly. She smiled and said, “ Oh that will be just fine.”
So Billy went to ‘his’ floor and explored. He found the bathroom, a shoe closet, a small library, and the attic. He got a little curious and explored the attic. It was mainly chests with old newspapers and books. Then something caught his eye. He went to see what it was and he gasped quietly. There were two dead bodies it was Christophor Mulholland and Gregory Temple. “I figured you would come up here eventually.” a voice said from behind him. He turned around quickly, obviously startled. The old lady was taking her hair off. Then she slowly started to rip her skin off and revealed a young woman in her 20’s. Then everything went dark.
He woke up and he was strapped to a rack. The 20 year old said, “I really liked you but you just had to explore the attic.” Billy asked faintly, “Who are you?” “I am Willow and these are my, um, you would call them ‘friends’” Willow pulled out a scalpel and slowly cut a small cut in Billy's chest. He flinched and Willow whispered in Billy’s ear, “If you move again I kill you before your time.” All of Willow’s ‘friends’ gathered around. They all started sucking the air around him and he felt a terrible pain where Willow cut. He soon realized they were sucking out his soul. Willow stuck her hand in the cut and squeezed his heart until he passed out and died. “Time to wait another 2 or 3 years until our next victim.” Willow said as she put back on the old lady costume.
Then there was a knock at the door...
