As always time went passed so quickly, the gusthouse was slowly transforming thanks to the infection from the ever increasing number of souls and horror. The guesthouse began to show the disease within, wallpaper peeled, floors lost their shine.
Yet still guests came and went, some left of their own will and some were taken by those trapped within the house.
Elinor herself however did not change, she seemed unaging, an uncalled for gift from the spirits. In order to get them sustenance she must retain her youthful looks and beauty. The next allotment of 6 years was approaching, already she had found the next sacrifice.
Amy Thompson. The friend of Sarah who had been with Drew and Sarah when Elinor was left at the house.
Bringing Amy to the guesthouse was slightly harder, but elinor used the idea of a university reunion - supposedly a secret for a retiring professor. Amy responded that she would attend and not breathe a word.

When Amy arrived at the Guesthouse, like Drew she didn't recognise Elinor, in fact her ignorance of her hostess made it all the easier for Elinor. She informed Amy that they needed someone with her elegant taste to help with the decoration which were in the cellar. Complaining of dust and mustiness Amy nevertheless followed elinor into the cellar.
The chamber had been prepared and a swift blow to the back of Amys head made her almost lose consciousness. Minutes later Amy found herself in the centre of the sacrificial circles, her soul about to join those already trapped here.
A flash of steel as Elinor brought out the knife she had already used to kill Drew. Amys scream went unheeded.
Only one more sacrifice to go - the final one....
