00:00Some people say you can't see the devil unless you've already invited him in.
00:05I never believed in all that religious stuff, not seriously anyway.
00:11My friend did though.
00:13He talked about demons and night terrors, like they were just part of his routine.
00:19I'd always listen, nod, maybe joke about bad dreams and too much caffeine.
00:25But that night, I wasn't laughing.
00:27We were in his room, the one he said felt heaviest.
00:32The air had that stillness, as if everything around you was waiting to inhale.
00:39The room was so quiet, I could hear the faintest creak of the floorboards.
00:45I was wide awake, staring at the ceiling, until I wasn't.
00:50Until I saw him standing by the closet.
00:52My skepticism was at its peak, and the tension in the room was palpable.
