  • A
  • simple
  • supermarket
  • becomes
  • an
  • unlikely
  • battleground
  • when
  • some
  • unlucky
  • customers
  • and
  • an
  • unruly
  • crew
  • of
  • overnight
  • workers
  • become
  • trapped
  • in
  • the
  • building
  • by
  • a
  • massive
  • flood.
  • As
  • the
  • flood
  • rages
  • outside,
  • those
  • trapped
  • within
  • soon
  • realize
  • that
  • the
  • rising
  • water
  • is
  • not
  • the
  • only
  • thing
  • they
  • need
  • to
  • fear.
  • A
  • murderous
  • maniac
  • wielding
  • a
  • sledgehammer
  • has
  • seized
  • the
  • opportunity
  • to
  • pick
  • the
  • occupants
  • off
  • one
  • by
  • one.
  • All
  • the
  • while
  • a
  • dark
  • entity,
  • ancient
  • and
  • unsympathetic,
  • stalks
  • the
  • shadows
  • and
  • ravages
  • the
  • minds
  • of
  • its
  • victims,
  • slowly
  • driving
  • them
  • to
  • madness.
  • A
  • handful
  • of
  • motley
  • survivors
  • are
  • the
  • only
  • ones
  • who
  • can
  • stop
  • the
  • vicious
  • creature
  • from
  • breaking
  • free
  • from
  • its
  • watery
  • prison
  • and
  • reigning
  • terror
  • upon
  • the
  • world
  • outside…
  • assuming
  • the
  • monster
  • or
  • the
  • sledgehammer
  • does
  • not
  • break
  • them
  • first."The
  • air
  • was
  • thick
  • with
  • dust,
  • musk,
  • and
  • consternation.
  • The
  • smell
  • within
  • the
  • basement
  • was
  • horrid
  • a
  • rancid
  • aroma
  • induced
  • by
  • bodily
  • terror
  • and
  • the
  • presence
  • of
  • a
  • solidifying
  • evil.
  • Entombed
  • within
  • the
  • darkness
  • was
  • a
  • pale
  • light
  • that
  • cast
  • eerie
  • shadows
  • through
  • an
  • obscure
  • cascade
  • of
  • drizzly
  • dust.
  • A
  • dingy
  • bench
  • lamp
  • with
  • a
  • cracked
  • facade
  • and
  • a
  • crooked
  • harp
  • was
  • the
  • source
  • of
  • the
  • light.
  • The
  • old
  • lamp
  • flickered
  • and
  • hummed.
  • Ceaseless
  • was
  • the
  • ghostly
  • humming
  • as
  • it
  • sang
  • a
  • steady
  • song
  • that
  • seemed
  • to
  • intensify
  • its
  • presence.
  • First
  • it
  • manifested
  • within
  • the
  • ears,
  • then
  • within
  • the
  • mind,
  • and
  • finally
  • within
  • the
  • flesh
  • a
  • thousand
  • tiny
  • needles
  • tunneling
  • their
  • way
  • through
  • your
  • face
  • in
  • an
  • excruciating
  • endeavor
  • to
  • unite
  • with
  • the
  • despotic
  • darkness
  • of
  • the
  • outside world."
