Ismah: slams the car door “We’re here. No turning back now.”

Sakshi: staring at the mansion “Are you serious? This place looks cursed.”

Tanishka: trembling “I don’t want to be here. It feels... wrong.”

Shreya: shrugs “You’re all being dramatic. Ghosts aren’t real.”

Ismah: “Let’s go find out. We didn’t drive all this way for nothing.”

They step inside. The door creaks shut behind them.

Sakshi: nervously “Why is it so cold in here? This place is giving me the creeps.”

Pari: softly “It feels like... like something’s watching us.”

Tanishka: whispers “What if we’re not alone?”

A loud bang echoes from upstairs. Everyone freezes.

Shreya: “That was definitely not just the house settling. What the hell was that?”

Ismah: grinning “Ghosts don’t scare me. Let’s go check it out.”

They slowly make their way upstairs. The floorboards creak under their weight. Another bang. Then... whispers.

Tanishka: panicking “I don’t want to do this anymore. I want to go home!”

Shafiya: hushed “I... I think it’s too late for that.”

The door at the end of the hallway swings open on its own. The air grows colder.

Ismah: without hesitation “We came here for answers. We’re finishing this.”

They enter the dark room. Suddenly, the door slams shut behind them. The whispers grow louder.

Sakshi: “What the hell is happening? We can’t get out!”

Out of the shadows, a figure materializes. Its eyes glow as it steps forward.

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdtG74xKlK

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViN1lIfopO

Voice: “You shouldn’t have come.”

The lights flicker. The group gasps as the pressure in the room thickens.

Shreya: whispering “We’re not leaving. Are we?”

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50o067qBil

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ozF8OqC4F

The figure suddenly stops. It speaks in a calmer tone.

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0Fr6ZYAz2

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOsqUR8VJH

Voice: “Wait. You are not like the others. You see the truth, don’t you?”

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMklID35hun

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjup7e4VnoG

Ismah: eyes narrowing “What truth? Why are we here?”

The figure pauses, then slowly steps closer.

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6HRwojaXr

Voice: “This house... it calls those who are brave enough to seek. You are the ones who can break the curse. The spirits here... they can’t move on until you do.”

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqMkqd2iHi

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugOXtXYDI8

The air shifts, the darkness receding slightly. The house feels... less oppressive.

Shafiya: “So, we’re supposed to help? How?”

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9ul8SYUvI

19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGRowEC0lD

Voice: smiling faintly “By letting go. By breaking the chains of fear. You must choose—leave now, or help free us from this prison.”

Ismah looks around at her friends. One by one, they nod, even Tanishka.

Ismah: stepping forward “We’re in this together. Let’s end it.”

The figure slowly raises its hand, and the door to the room creaks open on its own. The oppressive feeling lifts completely, leaving a quiet peace in its wake. The group steps outside, the house behind them now still, quiet, and no longer threatening.

Tanishka: exhaling “Did we... did we really do it?”

Sakshi: grinning “We did. And I’m never doing anything like this again.”

As they walk away from the mansion, the wind stirs behind them, but this time, it’s gentle. The curse has been broken. They can finally leave in peace.
