Frozen in place, we listened with every fiber of our being, desperate to hear the voice one more time.

And then, like clockwork, it came again.

"Hello? Is there anybody there?" The voice trailed from every direction, echoing as if caught in a vacuum.

I was certain it wasn't the apparition of Shane. The sound just didn't match in any way. It wasn't that of a young boy, but I couldn't be sure what it actually was. Maybe someone was lost in the woods or at the labyrinth.

Its distant echo made it impossible to trace.

"Outside," Shane gasped. "Come on!"

We hurried out of the secret room, and Shane locked it behind us.

Darting through the upstairs rooms, we made our way to the stairwell and bombed down into the kitchen.

"Helloooo...." The voice was more distinguishable now, that of a young man.

The hairs on my neck prickled.

"Who's there?" I called out, sure the voice was coming from somewhere inside the house.

Shane and I stopped and stood perfectly still. We listened for another call with every fiber of our being.

I wasn't sure if I hoped to hear it again or if I prayed for it to go away.

With only our eyes moving around the room, the silence kept us frozen in place.

"Is it gone?" Shane whispered.

"I don't know," I breathed.

With my heart pounding in my ears, I strained to hear anything.

The longer the silence lingered, the more my breath released from me.

And then it came again.

"What is your name?" The voice echoed all around us.

"Holy shit," I gasped. "What's going on?"

My eyes filled with heavy tears as terror rooted itself deep within me. I'd never believed in haunted houses until this very moment. And now there was no escaping the reality of it.

Someone was trapped and searched for an escape. They begged to be heard, and we had the ability to hear them. I wasn't sure if it had to do with our psychic gifts or if this voice would have been noticed by anyone nearby.

Shane held his hand out to calm me. I panted in my spot, wishing for it to all go away.

"Who's there?" he called out, searching in every direction.

We waited in stillness, as I tried to hold my breath.

With my heart pounding in my ears, I allowed the muffled sounds to buffer whatever was out there.

And then the voice broke through again, sending me into a panic.

As the young man's call filled the space within the house, and within our heads, my mind exploded in shock. Before his words even registered in my thoughts, I'd recognized the voice without question.

The voice was so familiar in its tone, a slight gasp escaped my trembling lips.

Shane's jaw dropped as the sound echoed all around us. His wide eyes met mine in search of confirmation of what we were hearing.

As he watched a heavy tear fall from my eye, he swallowed hard in understanding.

And then its searching cry called out again from all around us.

"Hello? Whoever is there. My name is Dominick."
