Once upon a time, there was an old, abandoned house with a camera obscura in it. A young girl, curious about the strange device, entered the house alone. As she peered into the camera obscura, she saw a shadowy figure that seemed to be staring back at her. She gasped and tried to run, but the door slammed shut. The figure in the camera obscura grew closer and closer, and she could hear its raspy breathing. She closed her eyes and screamed, hoping someone would hear her. When she opened her eyes again, the figure was right in front of her, and then everything went black.
