Now Serena is 13 years old, she just moved from Florida to Hudson.  She loves art, mystery, horror, games, and a lot of other stuff.  Her father just got a new job, they decided to move to Hudson to be closer to her father's job.  They immediately picked a house that looked in good condition.  They packed all their stuff and whatnots.  When they came to Hudson, Serena unpack her boxes and picked out a room, she then took a stroll around the block.  There wasn't many neighbors, since they lived in a secluded house, but she saw a couple people.  She loved the smell of autumn leaves and firewood.  As she turned around to go help unpack, she met a kid, a girl about her age. 
"Hey!" Serena said.
"Hi! You must be the new neighbor!" The girl said.
"Yeah. My name is Serena, what's yours?" Serena asked.
"My name is Talia!" The girl said.
"Well it was nice meeting you! I got to go, if you want a look around, I live right down the street, with the blue car!" Talia said.
"Thanks! I look forward to talking again!" Serena shouted.
As Serena walked away, Talia turned around.
"Hey! Where do you live?"
"Oh sorry, I live where the gray house is!"
Talia's eyes grew huge.
"Do you know the story of that house?"
"I'm sorry, what story?" Serena asked.
Talia shut her mouth and quickly said,
"Oh, it's nothing, just an old tale! I'll tell you another time!"
Talia ran off, Serena felt weird. She didn't know what Talia was talking about.  Serena shook it off, and walked to her new home a little faster to catch up with her mother and father. 
"Mom, Dad? I'm home!"
"Oh, good! I'll need your help cleaning!" Serena's mother said.
"Great!" Serena shouted.
"Now where do you thing we should start?" Her mother asked.
"How about the kitchen?" Serena suggested.
Her mother smiled and turned toward the kitchen.  All of a sudden, they heard a loud crash!
