The Puppet Master

When the room went dark, she heard her name a soft ,eerie whisper broke the silence calling out Wendy, Wendy can you hear me. Wendy's best friend Valerie is a gifted medium, renowned for her ability to connect the living with their departed loved ones. Tonight she is offering her unique talents to help Wendy and her family find solace. Surrounded by her family, the atmosphere is thick with emotion, each person holding their breath in anticipation. The only sound breaking the heavy silence is Valerie's voice as she channels Carl. Wendy's older brother, whose tragic murder in his apartment hangs over them like a dark cloud.

Their hands are clasped tightly together, forming a fragile circle of support. All eyes are locked onto Valerie, anticipation mingling with dread as they await Carl’s next words—will they bring the comfort of closure, or will they plunge them into even deeper despair? An unsettling calm blankets the room, yet it is so intense that the air is charged with unsung fears.
