First sentence: You step into a centuries-old house. The planks of its wooden floor have hollows worn into them from generations of use. It crosses our mind that all the people who once walked these same boards have long since turned to dust. Regardless of what your believe or don't believe about ghosts, you can't deny the little chill that shudders up your spine.
