Some moments are too precious for time to take away.
At the end of a narrow, forgotten road stood a mansion that nobody had entered for nearly a hundred years.
Its windows were dark, its gardens overgrown, and its great oak doors had remained locked for as long as anyone could remember.
Yet every Halloween, something extraordinary happened.
At precisely midnight, a light appeared in the upstairs window.
And somewhere deep inside the mansion, an ancient grandfather clock began to chime.
One.
Two.
Three.
The sound echoed through empty corridors, past portraits of people long forgotten, and across a grand staircase where no footsteps had been heard in decades.
Ten.
Eleven.
Twelve.
Then silence.
For a moment, the mansion seemed to hold its breath.
But the clock had not finished.
Thirteen.
The final chime rolled through the house like distant thunder.
The candles lit themselves.
The curtains moved, although every window was closed.
And on the staircase appeared the shadow of a woman dressed in black velvet.
She descended slowly, her footsteps making no sound.
In her hand, she carried an envelope sealed with dark red wax.
For a century, she had waited for the clock to strike thirteen.
For a century, she had guarded a message that could only be delivered during this impossible hour.
Now, at last, the moment had come.
She approached the clock, broke the seal and opened the envelope.
Inside was a single name.
She read it once.
Then looked directly toward you.
And whispered something that made time itself stand still…
