This place.... it's strange, I thought to myself. The room was full of mannequins and masks... all sorts of creepy things like that. There was a mirror sitting on a table against the wall, like the movie stars had, the mirror lined with lightbulbs. On the table there was a single stick of lipstick.
The only source of light in the room was coming from the mirror, but the room looked like there were red lightbulbs somewhere, the room had a reddish tint. It made the room particularly creepy.
I explored the room a bit more, careful not to touch or bump into anything since it was so crowded with all the dolls. I looked over to the corner and almost screamed.
All this time there had been a body hanging from the ceiling.
By a noose.
It wasn't very good lighting, but I could tell that the person's entire body was all black. Their head was hanging down so I couldn't see their face. A tuft of hair stuck out around their head, indicating that he was a man. But then I looked down, at their feet that hung off the ground. But they weren't feet, they were hooves. Not only that but a tail hung down past his- no, its, feet. Not even feet, hooves.
"What is this here?" said a deep, growling voice.
"W-who said that?" I asked.
"I'm not dead you stupid female. This is how I sleep." Then the creature looked up, and the last thing I saw were those piercing yellow eyes.
