Story

Bernard Thorne just got discharged from the hospital after recovering from falling down the stairs of his house. As usual, he wakes up from his sleep in the middle of the night. Normally he would read a book and wait for the sunrise, but tonight is different. Tonight, he has to climb up the attic.
