The New Build with an Old Presence | After Midnight

Hannah had avoided one part of the house since childhood — the addition.

It wasn’t the older side with its natural creaks and settling sounds. It was the newer build, especially the downstairs bathroom beneath a small loft. Even as a child, the space made her feel exposed. Watched.

When she moved back home at eighteen and began living there alone, the unease sharpened. The bathroom door tested its lock while she stood inside. The mirror fogged with handprints that didn’t match her own. The cats reacted to something beside her that she couldn’t see.

What unsettled her most wasn’t the activity — it was the pattern. Childhood nightmares of a man near a boiler cupboard. Plumbing. Enclosed spaces. The loft positioned directly above the sink.

For the first time, she stopped avoiding the addition. And something seemed to respond.
