Helen has been hearing a strange tapping noise in her attic for the past two days, but she never thought to check what it might be until today.

Tap!

She sighs. "I should probably go check that out."

She goes over to her attic in the hallway, pulling down the stairs to see what the noise is.

Each step she takes makes a creaking noise, something obvious from the way the steps have aged.

She makes it to the last step, looking into the attic to inspect what might be there.

Not seeing anything, she decides to go inside the attic and investigate further.

A few boxes lay around the room, but nothing that could be making the noise Helen has been hearing.

Tap!

She jerks her head to the left where she heard the noise, but sees nothing.

"What the heck?"

With no proof of the noise she has been hearing, Helen decides to leave and call her friend. She walks back towards the stairs, but the second her foot hits the step, a large, spider-like arm wraps around Helen's waist, dragging her back into the attic.

She screams and attempts to get away, but it is useless. The door shuts, a loud noise echoing from it as she is killed by the creature.

Three days later

Helen's friend, Jackie, knocks on her door. She had made plans to go out with her today, but after not answering any of her calls, Jackie was worried.

"Helen? You in there?"

She looks through the window on the door, seeing nothing of interest.

She takes out her spare key that Helen gave her, unlocking the door and going inside the house to look for her.

"Helen?"

Tap!

She looks up at the ceiling where the noise came from, knitting her eyebrows together.

"Probably the attic," she thinks to herself.

She goes over to the attic door to see what the noise might be, opening the door and going up the steps. She takes out her phone to use the flashlight, immediately regretting it.

Helen's lifeless body lay there in the middle of the floor, spiders crawling all over it.

Jackie screams, falling down the steps. Her head hits a framed picture of her and Helen, the glass going into her head. She falls to the ground, her impaled head hitting the ground, causing the glass to go deeper into her head and eventually killing her.
