The Halloween Children are watching me. They’re watching us all, Jacob.

Forget what I said about coming to visit. Don’t come near this place. It’s too late for me, but you can still save yourself.

PLEASE DO NOT COME HERE.

There is NO ESCAPE once you enter this place.

There was once a boy named Jack who stabbed his parents because a DEMON MADE HIM DO IT.

There once was a man who blew his brains out with a SHOTGUN.

He PULLED THE TRIGGER with his BIG TOE.

What if that man is still here?

A shotgun blows off half of your face and where does it go?

IT SEEPS INTO THE WALLS.

He’s here NOW, Jacob.

I researched photos of gunshot wounds. I found one that I think was taken in my apartment.

HIS FACE IS IN THE WOOD PANELING IN THE BACKGROUND.

PLEASE DO NOT COME HERE.
