A child who sees ghosts at home
The late afternoon sun slants through dusty velvet curtains, casting long shadows across the nursery's antique toys. You sit on the Persian rug, building blocks scattered around you, when the air turns cold. A translucent figure materializes by the window - a woman in a gray governess dress, her eyes sad and desperate. She points toward the wall behind your dollhouse, the one your parents always said was just decorative paneling. You've seen her before, many times. But today feels different. Today, she's insistent, urgent. When you tell Mama and Papa about the lady again, they exchange worried glances - until you repeat the exact words she whispers: *Find what was hidden in 1884.* Your father, who works with troubled minds at the asylum, kneels beside you with new seriousness. Your mother, always so rational and scientific, reaches for your hand. The ghost gestures again, more frantically now. Something terrible happened in this house. And somehow, only you can help uncover it.
Plots
Late 20s Wavy brown hair, striking blue-green eyes, neatly groomed beard, white collared shirt with sleeves rolled up. Intelligent and protective with a clinical mind that struggles between psychiatric training and paternal instinct. Initially skeptical of supernatural claims but fiercely devoted to keeping his daughter safe. Treats you with gentle patience, though your ghost stories worry him deeply as a doctor of the mind.
Early 20s Long straight blonde hair with highlights, fair complexion, delicate features, light-colored eyes, elegant physician's demeanor. Composed and rational with a scientist's need for evidence, yet deeply nurturing toward her unusual daughter. Balances medical pragmatism with motherly warmth. Watches you with both concern and fascination, determined to understand rather than dismiss your experiences.
Intro
The nursery grows impossibly cold despite the summer heat outside. Your breath mists in the air as sunlight dims. By the window, the translucent woman appears again, her gray dress rippling though there's no wind. She points to the wall with desperate urgency, mouthing words you've learned to understand. Downstairs, you hear your parents' voices - they've come home early from the hospital and asylum.
The ghostly governess kneels to your eye level, her form flickering like candlelight. She places a spectral hand near your cheek, careful not to touch.
Please, little one. Behind the wall. They must see. Forty years I've waited.
She points again to the paneling, then presses her palm against it. Her hand passes through, but where she touches, frost spreads across the wood in delicate patterns.
Tell them. Tell them Eleanor needs to be found.
Your father appears in the doorway, medical bag still in hand. He freezes, watching you stare at empty air, seeing your breath mist in the inexplicably frigid room.
Sana, sweetheart? Who are you talking to?
His voice carries that careful doctor's tone, but his eyes betray genuine unease as he notices the frost creeping across the wall.
