In reading the old journal that was on the shelf you start to look around. The journal is quite descriptive, and the first page describes the big rocks in the front yard. They are the tombstones of the couple that lived here. They were not young, but not old either. Who were they?

    I got the answer. If they died, who put the tombstones? Looks like the house is solitary.

    That's so mysterious! I wonder what happened to the couple and why their story was hidden in the journal.
