His name was Leo Garcia and he was attending the meeting as Gabe. He was a young art and antique dealer and a psychic. As far as The Blessing knew, he was in possession of the key. He had inherited it from his grandfather, an antique dealer with psychic abilities. He had come across the key during an auction. After paying a ridiculous amount of money for the piece, he made several attempts to resell it but the key failed to fetch him even what he had spent on it and eventually it found its way in the back of his small antique shop with other “dead stock”.After several years when he had almost forgotten the key, a group of infamous goons approached the old man.“Any idea about this, old man?” one of them asked, showing him a piece of paper.One look at the hand drawn sketch and the old man understood that the key was worth more than he could ever imagine.“I had something similar years ago but I’m not sure if I have sold it or if it’s still lying around,” he replied.“Well you better
When William left to talk to Keith about the Gemini curse, he asked Olivia and Holly to remain vigilant. “Hey, I’m sorry about earlier, I know now that what you said earlier made perfect sense,” Olivia apologized to Holly.“Oh, don’t worry we are good,” Holly replied, smiling.“I have something to tell you,” Olivia said. “This morning, right before you confronted me, I had a weird incident. I was jogging on the road and when I reached the turn at the end of the road. Someone reached out towards me and pulled me away from the road. It was Tessa. I had a feeling that Tessa was trying to corner me, pinning me down to the tree. I got into defensive mode and with all my effort, I pushed Tessa away.”“That’s weird!” Holly said.“She kept on saying that she thought we had something between us; a connection,” Olivia’s said.Both of Olivia and Holly were now convinced that Tessa had to do something with the curse and began to think about what to do next. Before they could figure somethi
When Meredith woke up, she was breathing heavily and her mind was full of fog. Jill and Olivia were leaning forward, looking at her closely.“Are you OK?” Jill asked with concern.“We are glad you decided to come,” Olivia smiled.“I was dragged here. I was trying to stop you,” Meredith gritted her teeth. “And where are we?”“Let’s go and find out!” Olivia suggested.“You don’t know? Brilliant!” Meredith said, getting up slowly.The three of them walked a mile before they found the main road and after reading the road signs they discovered that they were in Connecticut.“Any idea why we landed here?” Meredith asked.“Nope,” replied Olivia.“Is this place close to your home?” Jill asked.“No it isn’t, I want to say there was a glitch but…” Olivia said.“Is that even possible?” Jill asked with disbelief.“I don’t think so. The two of you must have messed up the spell,” Meredith said.“I say, keep walking, let’s enjoy our time while we are here,” Jill said cheerfully.Olivia smiled and th
The Local church was an old building and the graveyard was right next to the church. When William, Olivia and Romos arrived, the funeral service had ended.Three police officers were going around handing posters with a sketch of the suspect asking people if they had a clue about the killings. Romos detached himself from a group of locals he had started a conversation with and walked towards Olivia holding a poster.“Here, look at the sketch made by the human police. It quite matches him,” he remarked jokingly pointing at the priest who was standing in the middle of a group of people, his back towards Olivia.Olivia eyed Romos angrily.“Professor Edward, I am so sorry about Ethan,” a middle aged woman said to a man standing close by.Olivia shoved the poster written in foreign language in Romos’ hand, quickly walking over to the professor, introducing herself as a tourist. Both William and Romos followed her.“I would like to know a bit more about the legend of the old building,” she s
Later that night, when Amber returned home, she had bad news. Maddie had been stabbed. She was found lying in a pool of blood on her doorstep. When they brought her to the hospital she was already dead.“Our lives are in danger, we got to do something,” Amber said.“Gregory!” Olivia said quickly. “We need to do something to keep him safe.”“Fine, go pay him a visit. I will try to find out more from the police department.” William said.Olivia, Meredith and Jill quickly left to see Gregory. When they got near the house they heard multiple footsteps and on impulse they decided to hide. Gregory’s door was open so they went inside. The three of them looked out and to their relief, they saw three kids heading towards the main road. As the three of them started to call out for Gregory, Olivia spotted something. It was a silver knife and she had seen a similar one in Maddie’s house.“It’s him! Gregory is the Crypt Keeper!” She shouted.The very next moment Gregory got out from one of the roo
After the crack of the dawn, William, Olivia and Romos made their way back to the hotel, now sure that the creature was dead. Maxine had already departed feeling depressed as she couldn’t find any links to her son. Now she stood in the corner of an isolated building, not very far from the creek. Suddenly, a woman wearing a white trench coat with red flames on the bottom materialized in front of her.“Good day Maxine,” Maria said.Maxine acknowledged the greeting with a nod.“Hmmm, William Morris!” Maria said. “Guess he would be really impressed to see me again after a long time. He gave me a few chases, without being successful, of course. And wasn’t that the girl they found instead of me when they were trying to catch me so that I could be the slave of the Paranormal Authority for eternity. I really wanted to surprise him but now wasn’t the time or the place.”Maria’s eyes glared with meanness, repugnance obvious on her face as she spoke about the institution. Maxine didn’t react, sh
Reverend Franklin’s mauled body lay in a coffin and the funeral proceedings were about to start. The police had declared him to be the latest victim of the serial killer on the loose.“Shall we go ahead,” the new priest asked one of the representatives of the funeral house.“Few more minutes,” he replied. “We are expecting someone.”As soon as he finished his sentence, an elderly woman in her 70s stepped out of a car and began walking ahead to join the procession. She was wearing a nun’s attire and was accompanied by a slightly younger woman. She put a small bouquet of flowers on the coffin and stood close by.“Are we expecting any family members?” the new priest asked.“No Father, please go ahead. I am the only family he had,” the old woman said.The priest started the funeral proceedings.Sister Rene’ closed her eyes. She recalled the day that had changed her entire life. Around five decades ago, her life was entirely different than what it was today. She was sixteen and she lived i
William, Olivia and Holly checked into a B&B as soon as they arrived in Maine.“We will meet our source soon,” William declared. His name is Keith.”Once Olivia and Holly unpacked, they decided to go out for some fresh air. The atmosphere outside was serene and it was difficult, almost impossible to guess that the town was threatened by supernatural attacks. As they were out and about, Oliva spotted someone running towards them. It was a young girl around 16. As she approached closer both of them watched her stumble on a few pebbles and tumble down the steep road. Olivia and Holly instinctively rushed to her rescue.“Are you Ok?” Holly asked, offering her a hand.“Yes, absolutely fine,” the girl replied. As she gripped Holly’s hand and tried to get up, she stumbled once more, losing her balance. As Holly tried to help her steady with her left hand, her bracelet tangled between the girl’s fingers. Olivia watched with alarm as Holly’s delicate bracelet snapped, breaking in the midd
