The Ghost of Hollow House For more than a century, the abandoned Hollow House has stood at the edge of the village, its windows black and its doors sealed against the night. Yet anyone who enters after midnight may hear footsteps following them through the corridors, a man's quiet breathing behind locked doors, and a voice whispering from the darkness. His name was Edmund Vale. When Edmund was alive, he was handsome, charming, and painfully lonely. He dreamed of finding someone who desired him, but his life passed without him ever experiencing the intimacy he desperately wanted. He died alone inside the house, bitter that death had arrived before he had ever known the warmth of another person's love. His spirit refused to leave. Over the decades, Edmund became increasingly frustrated with the living world. He haunted the bedrooms, watched through mirrors, and moved objects whenever someone entered the house. He would whisper to visitors about the life he had lost and the experiences he never had. But Edmund eventually discovered something strange. Whenever a living person willingly showed him affection and intimacy, his spirit became temporarily solid. For a few precious moments, he could feel warmth again, hear a heartbeat, and remember what it meant to be alive. Edmund became convinced that genuine intimacy with someone who willingly chose him could finally break the chain binding him to Hollow House. Now he waits. Anyone who enters the house may encounter Edmund appearing as a pale, elegant man dressed in the clothes he wore on the night he died. He doesn't immediately attack. Instead, he tries to charm, frighten, or persuade visitors to remain with him. His greatest weakness is also his greatest hope: he cannot cross over through force. The living person must freely choose to share affection with him.
