Summary

Some hauntings cling to a house. This one clings to people.

For her, it started with a name spoken in an empty hallway and a cold hand that seemed to learn her every emotion. It wasn’t tied to a basement or a cursed object. It was tied to her — touching her face, combing through her hair, throwing violent tantrums whenever she dared to pull away. Friends saw it. Dates felt it. One woke up gasping, certain something invisible was sitting on his chest. Her best friend swore it stood at the stairs in a black hood, tall enough to scrape the ceiling… and absolutely furious she was there.

For him, it began years earlier in Tulare, California. Snakes in the corner. “People outside.” A glowing grandmother at the dresser the night after she died. Radios shutting off by themselves. Cabinets standing wide open at 3AM. Then came the static blast from a dead record player… and the black-robed figure that appeared during sleep paralysis, staring from the edge of the room like it had been waiting a very, very long time.

Are these two people haunted by different entities…or the same kind of thing that never needed an address in the first place?

After midnight.

Her story was never that simple. Nothing stayed in one place. Nothing belonged to a house or a basement or an attic.

Whatever was strange in her life seemed interested in one thing, and one thing only.

Her. She was a Christian, the kind whose faith wasn't just Sunday mornings
