I don’t know what I noticed first.
The darkness or the skittering sounds coming from the Vestibule.
Maybe it was both at the same time.
I popped my head in as I walked passed and noticed immediately where both were coming from. The darkness caused by a huge brick wall just outside the Vestibule window; the skittering from the mass of spiders of all kinds seemingly taking a little holiday in the Room above the Cellar. Frighteningly, most of them skittered away as I entered the Vestibule, with the odd one or two brave ones who decided just to hang around.
I wasn’t bothered about the cobwebs… or the spiders… well, it’s that time of year.
I wasn’t that bothered about the brick wall outside either, for that matter. The Mansion’s up to its tricks again. Well, it’s either that or it’s getting ready for the Gathering. It’s never put up a brick wall before though… maybe the Mansion wants to keep some things out… or someTHING in.
OOooOOooooOOOooooOOOOoooo
I’m sure it’ll let me know what in due course. The Mansion knows what its doing…
