Recently, Lulu was drawing in her room whilst her parents talked in the living room. As she stood up to grab a pack of coloured pencils, the door suddenly creaked open. Her parents went dead silent, and footsteps echoed through the hallway.

She walked quietly to the door to investigate, but she found nothing. A loud bang came from the closet. As she opened the doors, she saw her friend. She took a step back and gasped in shock because her friend had gone missing five years ago.
