Manuscript text[]
The Dark Presence had touched the girl to lure the writer into a trap. now it was night and he lay helpless, drugged, lit only by the flickering of the TV screen filled with static.
Shadows coalesced in the room as the Dark Presence leaned close to the writer, ready to touch him again: "Back to work, boy."
