Previously… As strange writing appeared on the lobby floor, the girls, terrified, quickly left the hotel…
‘mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon…’ Tamryn chanted under her breath as she and Krystal walked the sidewalk through town. Krystal stopped and grabbed her sisters arm. “Tam? Are you okay?” Tamryn shook her head no and stopped chanting. “I- I- I- I- I-“
“Come on, Tamryn, spit it out,” Krystal said nervously.
“I remember something weird about those words, but it’s not my memory.” The words shot out of Tamryn’s mouth as if they were running away from something.
“Girl, what? You need to calm down and just stop thinking about that. You sound crazy.”
The girls went on with their day and tried to stay away from the hotel as much as possible. They came across flyers in town for a beach homecoming event and decided to go there instead of heading back to the hotel for bed. The event seemed almost like a school homecoming, just without the football game. As the girls explored the event, Tamryn couldn’t help but dread the thought of going back to the hotel. “Hey, Krys, do you think we could try to find a new resort or hotel?” Tamryn asked. Suddenly the crowd went into complete silence, and all faces seemed to be staring at the girls. “Mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon… mi glutos vian animon,” They chanted at the girls as they formed a circle surrounding them. As they continued to chant, Tamryn felt her entire body turn ice cold…
