Ch. 23 Walking on Thin Air
As soon as Jennifer walked across the wall, she instantly realized that the air was very thin. However, with the wall cracked, that provided extra air for her to breathe. But even worse, she saw a skeleton….A REAL DEAD PERSON! She gasped with shock as her hands cupped her mouth. That was probably the worst she's seen yet in this mansion aside from Mr. Barrows.
There was a black, medical bag and note beside the skeleton. There were also a bunch of tally marks on the wall like someone was counting days…counting days until their death!
Jennifer glanced at the medical bag and it said, "Walter Simpson". "Walter Simpson?" Jennifer stared at the corpse and then realized who it was. "Dad?….daddy?...she killed my daddy?" That did it for Jennifer. She could deal with the crazed mansion but finding out that her family was involved was despicable!
How dare Mrs. Mary kill her family! She was definitely going to pay for that!
After looking at that medical bag, she didn't wanna read the note. Jennifer couldn't help but start crying. "Daddy!...why?"
What was the note going to say? Could it have been a suicide note?
'Oh no I hope not!' she thought to herself. "Well….there's only one way to find out." Jennifer picked up and read the note. What she read was shocking.
It basically revealed what happened with Mrs. Mary in the mansion.
She learned so much from the note. It told her everything she needed to know about Mrs. Mary.
It turns out that Mrs. Mary had two, demon children that harmed her father. Apparently, her father was some sort of doctor. So with those demon children…was one of them….Scissorman because he sure looked deformed. That would mean that Scissorman is actually Mrs. Mary's son. That's why they work together as a team. But who was the other child? Also in the note there was a very, familiar quote. It mentioned about "a cradle under the star". Wasn't that what Mr. Barrows mentioned about earlier?
"So he wasn't crazy after all." Jennifer said to herself. "But I wonder what that means." Even though the note was disturbing, she wanted to keep the note. So Jennifer pocketed the note from her father. She got one last look at the room and her father before leaving him for good. Jennifer looked at the skeleton and said, "Goodbye daddy."
