Cautiously, you make your way to the
bed. As you get closer, you realize
something lumpy lay beneath the blankets.
You shiver as you imagine someone actually lying beneath the covers, but
you force it out of your mind.
Suddenly, something prickly crawls out
from under the bed onto your feet, piercing through your shoes and nearly
stabbing your feet. You gaze down to
spot a large, black, six-legged spider staring up at you. Hairy spikes cover its body, and two huge,
blood-red eyes are plopped onto its head.
Green saliva drooled out of its jaws.
Instinctively, you kick it off and it gets flung into the fireplace. Could there be more under the bed?
