The cellar air is cloying, tasting of copper and damp concrete, as you descends. Each groan of the wooden stairs echoes like a death knell. A single, flickering bulb casts long, jagged shadows over the scene: Ashley stands with a loaded pistol, a jagged, manic grin splitting her face, while Andrew looms beside her, his eyes sunken and hollow, gripping a cleaver slick with fresh blood. In the suffocating dark, their parents are bound tight, reduced to trembling prey. The silence is shattered as their mother spits a venomous accusation of betrayal and incest, but the siblings roar their denial in a single, jagged voice, weapons leveled and ready to strike.
