The Closet, Part 4

The Closet
The Closet

"Well then," said Trevor, I suppose you've seen an old lady?"

"Yes, an old lady who straight up told me to get out."

"I'm sorry, Ernest. I suppose I could have warned you, but I didn't think you'd believe me. I don't know anything about the hat man. As for the woman, I didn't think she'd go so far as to speak to you. My grandmother had always wanted a huge walk-in closet, and she's the one who had that closet built. She was very proud of it. I saw her in there a few times after she passed away, but she always just looked around and then vanished. She and I shared that closet until the day she died."

"The woman you saw was the ghost of my grandma, Edith Clarke. I don't have any meaningful advice to give you, just her name.  You can try to communicate with her if you wish. Personally, I don't know what I'd do. But if she's ordering you to leave, you probably already have your answer."
