10:00AM
The following morning, Tom and Anna were sitting in the kitchen, talking about what happened to Izzy.
"Do you think she'll be ok after her encounter with this so called, "Boogeyman?" Tom asked.
"I don't know. I hope she doesn't end up like—" Anna said as she's interrupted by Tom.
"Don't start talking about that crap again. Look, you promised you were never going to talk about that night or about what you saw."
"But, what if he's back, Tom? Or what if he's the one Izzy saw last night?"
"Honey, don't worry. As long as we don't tell Izzy about this, we're going to be fine." Tom said as he held Anna's hand and she sighed in relief.
"You're right, I guess I'm just jumping to conclusions." She said as she got up to start making breakfast. "Do you want something for breakfast?"
"I can't, I'm about late for work." He said as he gave Anna a kiss on the cheek.
"Have a good day at work." She said as he walked toward the door.
What they didn't know was that Izzy was listening and recording the conversation the entire time. She walked quietly upstairs and she closed the door to where her mom wouldn't hear. She plugged in her headphones and listened to the tape. As she listened, she wondered what her mom saw a long time ago. She took off her headphones and started recording.
"This is Izzy Hardy, and this is day 2 of my investigation on Michael Myers. Last night, I encountered some creepy shit while I was in the Myers House like an alter with the pumpkin and a few decaying bodies. I also had an encounter with Michael while I was there. I managed to escape, but I'm still traumatized from it. But, I'm going to continue this investigation, starting with what my mom and dad were talking about in the kitchen. What happened a long time ago that they don't want to talk about? I intend to find out while I'm doing with this investigation. But first, I'm going to head to Smith's Grove Sanitarium to learn more about Michael Myers. I'll be back with more updates soon. Izzy out."
She grabbed her computer and looked up the phone number for Smith's Grove Sanitarium. A few minutes later, she went back downstairs and towards the kitchen.
"Hi, honey. How are you feeling from last night?"
"I feel much better now. Hey, is it ok if I ride somewhere?"
"Where to?"
"Smith's Grove Sanitarium and the reason why I'm going there is because I want to get an interview with doctors who treated Michael Myers back when he killed his sister in 1963."
"Are you sure want to do this, even after what happened last night?"
"Yep, even if it kills me."
Anna wished in her head that Izzy would give up on the project and move onto a different subject. She sighed.
"Ok, but please be careful while your there. Who knows what goes on there."
"Don't worry, they'll make sure I'm safe." She said as she gave Anna a hug and started walking toward the door. "I'll see you later."
As Izzy closed the door, Anna prayed to herself, "Lord, please let my daughter be safe this Halloween and please, for God's sake, keep her safe from the hands of Michael Myers."
