All the lights in the room had suddenly extinguished themselves, and Louise turned her head left and right. The light of lightning came through the open window, and she tried to get to where Lady Viola was in the dark.
"What happened?!" questioned Lady Viola, panic in her voice.
"Why did all the lights blow out?" Louise heard Father Edward questioning them from where he stood.
"Gilbert!" Lady Viola called the butler so that he could bring in the lit lantern into the drawing-room.
The next words that Father Edward said had Louise turn alert. He said, "I think she is here. I can sense the presence of evil and its turning heavy! It would be best for us to step out of the room and also step outside the manor with everyone to be together!" he advised.
Father Edward was right, thought Louise in her mind. It was much better for everyone to be at one place so that the ghost wouldn't surprise and hurt them.
