But before she could reach the safety of the stairs, a cold hand closed around her ankle, sending her crashing to the ground with a sickening thud.Pain exploded through Justine's body as she felt the creature's jagged teeth sink into her flesh, tearing through muscle and sinew with terrifying efficiency. She cried out in agony, the sound echoing through the empty basement as she struggled to break free from its iron grip.With a surge of desperate strength, Justine kicked out with her free leg, striking the creature's face with all her might. It let out a guttural growl of pain, releasing her ankle for a brief moment. Seizing the opportunity, Justine scrambled to her feet and raced up the stairs, her heart pounding in her ears as she fled from the nightmare below.She burst into the safety of the hallway, her breath coming in ragged gasps as she stumbled toward the bedroom where her friends slept. Blood seeped from the deep wounds on her leg, staining the floor as she collapsed against the door, her strength fading with each passing moment."Help!" she screamed, her voice trembling with fear and pain. "Please, someone help me!" But in the darkness of the night, her cries went unanswered, leaving her alone to face the horrors that lurked in the shadows of the house.
