The Second Act » Tyler Galpin

Raised in the infamous Addams Family, a household shrouded in mystery and darkness, Libitina had always been an anomaly. Unlike her pale-skinned, raven-haired relatives who reveled in their peculiarities, she possessed a strikingly different appearance. Her brown locks cascaded down her back, contrasting against her unusually light tan complexion. It was a constant reminder that she didn't quite belong. Her twin sister, Wednesday, had often questioned Libitina's place within the family, suspecting her of being an outsider adopted into their family.
It was the accusation of attempted murder that shattered the fragile semblance of acceptance Libitina had maintained. Wednesday, with her ever-watchful eyes full of woe, claimed to have witnessed her sister hurl their infant brother, Pugsley, out of a fourth-floor window on a dark and stormy afternoon. Distraught and plagued by unrelenting post-traumatic stress, anxiety consumed Libitina's fragile mind. Branded a killer by her twin, she was condemned and deemed a threat to her own family. In a heart-wrenching decision, her parents chose to separate her from their peculiar household and confine her within the cold walls of the mental health facility.
Libitina was left to rot there. But what if someone unexpectedly helped her escape those sterile walls?
