The house, a charming Victorian, was a dream come true for Emily. Until she read the police report. The master bedroom, once her sanctuary, now felt tainted, a place of morbid secrets. She kept finding herself walking through the rooms, tracing the walls, touching the doorknobs. Her sleep became restless, filled with disturbing dreams. She woke up drenched in sweat, a cold dread clinging to her. She considered moving, selling, anything to escape.
