Void

You were in your own house — in the attic, to be exact — searching for something. (What? I have no clue what you might have been looking for!) You were going through the boxes that had been placed up there. The attic itself was dark, with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling.

Then you saw a book in one of the boxes. Its cover was torn and old-looking. Curious, you reached out to pick it up — but before you could, you heard a low, dark, hysterical cackle coming from someone… or something… nearby. Immediately after the sound, your ears started to ring, and you quickly placed your hands over them.

The cackling stopped. You looked around, trying to find the source of the sound. You circled the attic, searching, before you heard that same voice again — this time whispering “Boo” directly into your ear.

And it came from the ceiling.

You looked up and saw a figure. A being that had the form of a man… but his head was a black hole. He wore a black tail coat, black trousers, black luxurious heels, a dark gray shirt, and a black tie. He stood 6’3” — 192 cm tall.

A moment later, he was suddenly standing right in front of you, his arms hanging loosely by his sides. His skin was coal-colored, and his hands were unnaturally long. His fingers were longer than any human’s. He didn’t look human at all. He stared down at you.

You couldn’t read his facial expression — because he didn't have a face.
