(Recap)
Shit we were trapped. Finding nowhere to run, we latched on to each other as we watched the shadows near.
So this is it, death by ghost is how I go out for the second time. As they neared, I started to see their hollow faces and glowing eyes, with wide open mouths. Their tattered clothing that clung to their skeletal frames slowly moved as they neared as if a faint wind was blowing.
"Does this happen often to you?" I heard Shaun ask.
"Nope, this is a first."
Then we both screamed as the shadows closed in on us, moving from the sides as well as the ceiling and the only light of the elevator started to flicker as it finally went out.

Chapter 23
We sunk down to the floor as they neared and I started to feel the damp touch of their outstretched hands. I could smell their putrid breath as it got closer, I shut my eyes tight, to block out the sight of their ghostly faces, so close to mine.

When my eyes connected with the owner of that high pitched whine I couldn't help the groan that slipped out of my mouth. Yip I died and gone to hell, so the fall back was the big fall down to hell, and Terry was here with me... the ultimate torture, yes the universe was just that cruel.
Someone cleared their throat and both Shaun and I jumped up and apart. Awkwardly standing and dusting ourselves off. By now I had realized that we weren’t dead, mainly from the freaked out looks we were getting from the people around us and from the fact that I had recognized the hospitals elevator. My foggy mind slowly registered that the woman was still waiting on our response,
