On the first day of school, I was assigned to Dorm Room 404.
The older students all said someone had died in Room 404 last year, in an extremely gruesome way.
No one dared to stay there, so it was given to me.
In the middle of the night, a note was slipped under my door. It read:
“1. Do not open the door after lights out. 2. Do not respond to knocking. 3. Do not look in the mirror. 4. Do not…”
The fourth rule had been smeared out with blood.
As I stared at it, a heavy knock suddenly sounded from outside the door.
“Knock, knock, knock, ”
My phone screen lit up, displaying blood-red numbers:
00:00.
