Chapter Eighteen

Theo wasn’t sure she wanted to know if her dreams had truly happened here at Hill House, but at least she would know once and for all if she actually had some psychic ability.

Judging by the outside architecture, the large tower should be somewhere on the back, left side of the house. Walking in that direction, she hoped she wouldn’t get lost in the maze of tunnel-like hallways and dusty rooms. Whenever she stumbled upon a staircase leading up, she took it, figuring that she would need to be at the top of the house to find the tower.

She soon came upon a set of footprints in the dust. On impulse, she followed them. They led her to the enormous attic. The footprints wandered off to the right, heading toward an oval portrait of a beautiful young woman. A dead end. Theo went to the left where she discovered yet another staircase in the corner leading upwards. The rickety stairs creaked alarmingly as she ascended. She prayed they would hold her weight. With a sigh of relief, she made it up the stairs and entered a large room.

This was it! The tower room from her dream! She had been right. A shiver coursed down her spine. What did this mean? That she was truly psychic? The idea was both empowering and terrifying. She wrapped her arms around herself, almost expecting the ghost of Ligeia to appear.
