Sarah hummed a tune as she unpacked boxes, her energy boundless. Her new condo, with its stunning city view, was everything she'd hoped for. This was a new beginning, a fresh start. A chance to reinvent herself.

She laughed as she imagined hosting glamorous dinner parties, inviting friends, and building a life filled with joy. This was the first step on the path to everything she had always wanted.

She decided to check her home's history. The website's list of facts about the building did not mention the grisly murder that had occurred there a few years ago. She swallowed hard, suddenly very aware of the quietness of the space. Her initial sense of thrill was replaced by a disquiet she couldn't explain.
