Ghoulish Encounter, Part One

With caution guiding his feet, the unshaven man raced down the left corridor, checking to make sure each door was closed. He listened in, confirming there were no unusual noises coming from any of the rooms. 

As he passed through the corridor, a woman's scream rang out from within the room to his left. It was a bloodcurdling cry, making the hairs on his arm stand as he froze in place. 

Jon quickly looked towards the closed door, "Hey! I'm coming in!"

Trying the handle, it didn't budge, only earning another horrific yell from within the room as he tried it. 

"Help me…! Help–!" The desperate pleas for help came from within the room. 

"I'm tryin'--!" He hurriedly shouted in return, backing up as he caught his breath, staring at the door. "Alright–if you're near the door, then back away! I'm coming in!"
