SUMMARY OF PART 1
In Part 1 of this story, Jack and Madeleine find themselves driving through treacherous terrain as a storm rapidly approaches. Tensions rise as Jack recounts a terrifying experience he had years ago in the ominous Black Forest, where he and his friends encountered a mysterious and monstrous figure that vanished just before midnight. As they drive deeper into the forest, the storm intensifies, and their path is blocked by a fallen tree, forcing them to take a dangerous detour. With the storm worsening, they realize they must cross two potentially flooded streams. When the second crossing proves too treacherous, they are stranded, only to spot a mysterious light in the distance. They decide to seek shelter in what turns out to be a massive, ancient castle hidden deep in the forest. Inside, they are greeted by a sinister porter and are shown to a dark, eerie room filled with unsettling portraits. As the night progresses, strange and terrifying events unfold, including ghostly footsteps and mysterious shadows, hinting that the castle holds dark, supernatural secrets.

All is quiet for a couple of minutes. Then Madeleine's scream cut through the air. "Help me, Jack!"
Jack jumps off the bed with shock visible on his pale face. He knows he has to confront the chilling truth and do something about it, now or never. "Enough of this evil! Madeleine, it seems to me that our big drama has just begun. The spirits, or whatever they are, intend to drive us livid with fear. We need to get out immediately. I'd rather face the stormy weather outside than this torture, any second longer."
Ghostly laughter echoed in the room, merging with the thunderstorm in an unholy symphony. It drives cold chills down their spines.
"Jack! Look there! The portraits. The people or monsters in the portraits are starting to climb out of it!" Madeleine's terrified exclamation cut through the eerie, ice-cold room.
Jack, his voice filled with dread, responded to the unfolding supernatural horror. "Accursed devils! They're floating towards us, like they want to attack us."
Eerie ghostly laughter intertwined with the thunderstorm outside as Madeleine defiantly shouted at the monsters coming towards them. "You won't get us, you vile devils! Go away, leave us alone!" her voice screams the words out loud with a hoarse sound.

Chapter 1
INTO THE UNKNOWN
Jack's knuckles turned white as he clenched the steering wheel, guiding the car through the treacherous terrain. The rocky path seemed to echo the uneasy rhythm of Madeleine's concern. Her voice tinged with an anxious cadence matching the impending storm. The clouds hung ominously low, and lightning slashed across the sky, casting an eerie glow on the landscape.
"If you were paying attention," Jack's voice cut through the tension like a blade. "You'd notice that a storm is rushing towards us. We'll be engulfed in it before we reach the house, judging by the lightning and those dark clouds looming."
