Account
A few days later the guest and a young cousin hid in a cornfield at night during a hide-and-seek game. The guest touched what he thought was another cousin but saw a tall long-haired being with glowing red eyes that growled, then stood up. After the guest spoke to it, it walked away with heavy footsteps heard by others.
