"Whispers in the Abyss: A Descent into Madness"
I sat alone in the empty house, my mind filled with a deep sense of unease. The silence was palpable, broken only by the faint ticking of the grandfather clock in the corner. As I contemplated the solitude, a strange sound reached my ears, emanating from the depths of the basement. It was a soft, almost imperceptible scratching, like tiny claws scraping against the cold concrete floor.

Doctor Winters Forgetfulness Clinic- The Drink Took Him
“I just don’t think I can live with this. I need it gone, or it’ll drive me to drink.” Dr. Winter tapped the edge of a spoon against the tea cup, and the sound it made was like a clarion bell. She brought the cup over to the man sitting across from her, taking him in with a study to glance. He was different from her usual clientele. The man looked as if his demons were far behind him, all save this one thing he couldn’t quite exercise. He wore a crisp, white button up shirt, was clean shaven, and looked as though he had a handle on his life. He looked as though he ran most mornings, perhaps hit the gym for more than three months out of the year, and other than his eyes, which roved like a scared horses, he seemed very well put together.
