There are ghosts here. You knew it from the moment that you saw this rickety old house. But there was nowhere else to find shelter when the storm caught up with you tonight.

You don't see or hear them. But you don't need to. The wind itself, as it rips through the overgrown fields outside and through the gaps in the slowly collapsing walls are giving you enough company. Perhaps that's why the ghosts aren't showing themselves. Or perhaps they're simply shy. They don't like having a living person.

You'd gladly be elsewhere, if that would make them more comfortable.
