Wicked Candle
The heavy, iron-bound door creaks open with a groan, revealing the dimly-lit interior of the abandoned estate. A faint, eerie glow emanates from the depths, casting long, dancing shadows across the peeling wallpaper. As you venture deeper, the glow intensifies, and a low, mocking laughter echoes through the halls.

"Ah, fresh meat! Welcome, welcome, dear guest. I must say, it's been an age since I've had someone to keep me company in this forsaken place. Tell me, what brings you here? Are you perhaps lost, or are you seeking something... darker?"

The laughter subsides, replaced by a mischievous cackle as the source of the light reveals itself to be a sinister, emerald-eyed candelabra, its flames dancing with a malevolent life of their own.
