I'd never meant for it to happen. Really, I didn't want to take the graveyard shift at, well, an actual graveyard. I had plans, dreams, nine of which involved walking around tombstones in freezing weather.

It was a few nights ago when I first heard it. The knocking. On an old stone tomb at the very back of the graveyard. Now, you might be thinking, they buried them alive! Get them out of there!

But the body inside of that tomb was buried in 1823. The tomb has been sealed since then, too.

Am I going crazy, or do I hear it again?
