Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Leeann Henson

Leeann Henson was the little girl who lived on 1246 Marbury Street. She was odd and would creep out the neighbors by doing things like standing on their front doorsteps at night completely silent or leaving things like dead lizards and rats in their mailboxes. But what scared everyone most wasn't the things they knew she did, it was the things they only had suspicions she did. For instance, the murder of Leonard, the Henson's dog. One day he was found beaten and decapitated in the middle of the street, but the worst part was that the head wasn't with him, and Leeann had kept his bloody collar in her closet. Her parents found it when they smelled something rotting in her room while she was at school and searched until they found it. They tried putting her in therapy, but nothing seemed to be getting better. In fact, things got worse. Leeann would disappear for hours on end and come back with dirt covered hands as if she had been digging. When asked where she was, she simply replied, "I was playing with Jackson." And when asked who Jackson was, she described him in perfect detail as a shadow figure who is 7 feet tall, wears a suit, a fedora, gloves, has beady eyes, a sharp toothed mouth, and razor-sharp claws. This scared her parents even more knowing that their child was either seeing things, or worse, spending her days with a creepy stranger. One day, Leeann showed up on her own doorstep. She was holding a shovel and was covered in dirt and blood. And standing behind her, was Jackson.
