Legend has it that the souls of those buried in the cemetery are tormented, unable to find peace.

 Many have reported seeing strange apparitions, hearing eerie whispers and feeling an inexplicable chill in the air. The cemetery lies at the outskirts of a small town, nestled among the trees and overlooked by a darkening sky. The rustling of the leaves in the wind and the sound of distant crows only add to the ominous atmosphere.

 The tombstones are weathered and cracked, their inscriptions barely legible. It is said that the souls of the dead buried there are tormented and unable to find peace. Visitors to the cemetery can feel a sense of unease, as if they are being watched by the restless spirits of the deceased. There is something unsettling about this place, something that makes people shiver even on the warmest of days.

As the friends are still in shock from the Lady at the mansion, they are still unsure how to escape as they hurriedly walk past the many graves, they have this feeling of being followed.

Suddenly they hear a woman call out a name Emily.

They undoubtedly hear her yell out the name Emily and then hear her deep, anguished voice saying, "don't take my child," as a black shadow suddenly appears from the side. It appears to be a woman 

The ghostly woman appeared to be a spectral figure, almost translucent and ethereal in nature. Her long, flowing dress appeared to be made of mist, billowing around her as if caught in an invisible breeze. She had long, flowing hair that cascaded down her back like a waterfall of silver. Her eyes glimmered with an otherworldly light, seeming to reflect the moon and stars themselves.

As she moved, she floated above the ground, her feet barely touching the grass. Her movements were slow and graceful, as if she were weightless and unconcerned with the mortal world. The sight of her was both beautiful and terrifying, as if she were a being from a realm beyond human understanding.

Though she appeared calm, there was an air of melancholy about her, as if she were tormented by a great sadness. Her presence was haunting, the friends could feel her sorrow and despair emanating from her very being. It was as if she were trapped between worlds, unable to move on and find peace.

As they turn around they can see yet another ghostly figure of a woman calling out for her child, The ghostly woman's serene countenance changed as soon as she let out a mournful wail, calling out for her child. Her ethereal form shook with grief as she cried out, her voice carrying a sense of desperation and heartbreak.

The woman's wails echoed through the cemetery, bouncing off the tombstones and filling the air with a palpable sense of sorrow. The cries were so intense that they seemed to reach into the very souls of those who heard them, causing a shiver to run down their spines.

It was as if the woman's grief had consumed her entirely, and all she could do was search for her lost child. Her haunting voice echoed through the cemetery, as if hoping that her child would hear her and come back to her. But her calls went unanswered, and her cries only grew louder and more agonized.

Despite the terror and sadness that her presence brought, there was a sense of pity for the woman, trapped in a state of eternal mourning. It was clear that she would never find peace until she was reunited with her child, and those who witnessed her sorrow could not help but feel a sense of sadness and compassion for the tormented soul.

They concluded that the Lady of the Mansion had undoubtedly kidnapped these missing children and kept them as her own, torturing these mothers souls forever.

In their hearts they knew they had to help these spirits find peace. The kept going through the dense woodland surrounding the cemetery and finally reached the cabin they had stumbled on before.

Upon reaching the cabin they saw an old man slumped on a chair, Alex first thought he might be dead, but suddenly he mumbled something and woke up.

The old man was surprised to see the friends in the middle of the cemetery in his cabin.

He explained that the he was hired by the town's cemetery committee many years ago,  the old man told them there were rumours about the missing headstones , families visiting the Mansion met with terrible accidents and were then buried in the cemetery without headstones. 

However, the Lady of the Mansion would give birth to a child, and the people in the town would gossip about the Lady that her children did not look alike, leading to the belief that the families had their infant children mysteriously taken away from them.

After the old mans revelation everything began to make sense, the friends believed that Lady of the Mansion was responsible for the torment of the souls, and wanted set  to  free them from their eternal suffering, but they didn't know how.
