The police stormed in en masse, filling the house with armed officers and special teams. All entered the dark underground tunnel, but none returned.

Worry turned to panic as the officers disappeared without a trace. That night, holed up at my aunt's house, terror gripped us. Nero, my faithful canine companion, seemed to sense a sinister presence stalking us. His erect ears and restless gaze warned me of impending danger.

Suddenly, a sharp knock on the door broke the silence. My aunt nervously went to open the door, thinking it was the police with news.

But when the door opened, all we saw was impenetrable darkness on the other side. An absolute blackness that seemed to swallow the light.

At that moment, I realised that what we had awoken upon discovering that cursed tunnel was not of this world. An ancient, primordial evil had been released. And now it was coming for us.

The darkness began to creep into the flat like a viscous mass. Nero snarled, baring his fangs, as I recoiled in terror. My aunt screamed in horror, unable to comprehend what was happening.

Then, out of the shadows, deformed claws emerged and swooped down on Nero. My brave friend jumped to defend me, but was thrown against the wall with lurid force. The darkness advanced relentlessly, blocking my way out.

Cornered, with no escape, I felt their icy breath surround me. Amorphous jaws opened wide in front of me, ready to devour me.

I screamed at the top of my lungs as this beast of utter darkness swooped down to claim my soul.
