In the quiet town of Gulfeim, the old manor on the hill had long been abandoned, its grand piano left to gather dust in the decaying parlor. The townsfolk whispered of a tragic past, a tale of a pianist named Evelyn who had met a gruesome end. Her spirit was said to haunt the manor, her death shrouded in mystery and fear.
One stormy night, a young musician named Clara, driven by curiosity and a desire for inspiration, decided to explore the manor. She had heard the legends but dismissed them as mere superstition. Armed with a flashlight and her notebook, she ventured into the dark, creaking house.
The air inside was thick with the scent of mildew and decay. Clara made her way to the parlor, where the grand piano stood like a silent sentinel. She brushed off the dust and ran her fingers over the keys, producing a hauntingly beautiful melody. As she played, she felt a strange chill in the air, as if unseen eyes were watching her.
