That day, I was alone in my new home.
I went to explore it.
I'm a curious girl, what can I say?
Besides I might as well get to know the place that I'll be calling home for a while. Or at least until I turn 20.

I went down to the basement, and it wasn't anything special. If anything the dimly lit room just made me constantly look around.

But to my surprise there was something on the floor, in the corner of the room.

A brown and dirty fedora.

I grabbed it, dusted it off and tried it on.
It was a perfect fit.
But the moment I wore it, I could hear screaming. Laughing.
Crying.
And the sounds of flames and metal sharpening.

I immediately took it off.

What was that?
Am I going crazy....or did I actually hear what I heard?
