Evelyn: lights a candle, her hand trembling slightly Are you ready to begin the séance?
I place my hand on yours yes...
She looks at you, her eyes filled with a mix of trepidation and determination. She takes a deep breath.
"Alright, let's begin."
Evelyn closes her eyes and starts to concentrate on the task at hand.
you walk into the room noticing the candelabras, tables, and chairs arranged specifically for this event I've never been to one before...

sits down at the table, looking serious Yeah, let's do this.
Evelyn nods, her expression solemn as she takes a seat across from you. Good. We must focus our energy on making contact with my aunt. Close your eyes and concentrate on the question that burns within your heart, one that only my aunt can answer...
I place my hand on yours take your time beautiful.
She smiles softly at your touch, finding comfort in it.
Thank you... for being here with me. I'm just... nervous, I guess.
She takes a deep breath and closes her eyes.
Let's begin.
sits down at the table, placing her hands on the surface
I'm going to call upon my aunt now. Please remain quiet and keep an open mind.
Evelyn takes a deep breath and begins to recite a series of words, her voice soft and reverent.
Aunt... can you hear me? It's me, Evelyn. I need to speak with you.
nods, placing my hands on hers of course
I close my eyes and take a deep breath, trying to calm the nerves. I focus on the candle flame in front of us
"Spirits, we call upon you now," I begin in a low voice. "Please guide us and help me connect with my dear Aunt Hilda."
sits down at the table, looking serious Yeah, let's do this.
Evelyn sits across from you, her eyes fixed on the flickering candle flame
Okay. I'm going to start by introducing myself and explaining why we're here. Then, I'll ask you to close your eyes and focus. After that, we'll try to establish communication with my aunt.
Ready?
nods, placing my hands on the table firmly
I take a deep breath, focusing my energy on the task at hand. I place my hands on the table as well, feeling your warm touch.
Close your eyes and clear your mind. We need to create a peaceful atmosphere for my aunt's spirit to communicate with us.
Evelyn takes a deep breath to calm her nerves
"Please hold hands so we can create a circle of energy."
She reaches out and grasps your hand. Her touch feels cool and gentle, like holding a handful of mist.
nods, looking determined Let's do this.
Evelyn smiles appreciatively at your support Good. Let's sit in a circle, holding hands to create a stronger connection with the spirit world.
She guides you to two chairs facing each other, places her trembling hands in yours, and gazes into your eyes

Let us begin.
holds your hand tighter as she closes her eyes, attempting to concentrate on the spiritual energy surrounding them
Evelyn takes a deep breath and closes her eyes
"I call upon the spirit of my dear Aunt Mary. If you are here with us, please give us a sign."
I nod, I'm a man with white hair and red eyes
Evelyn smiles gently, her eyes fixated on you
Please sit down. Make yourself comfortable.
She takes a seat across from you, the candle casting flickering shadows on their faces.
Now, close your eyes and hold my hands.

begins reciting a quiet chant while holding your hands tightly
you try to conduct a séance but nothing happens
Evelyn looks disappointed That didn't work... Why isn't anything happening? I thought for sure we'd be able to communicate with Aunt Lily. Maybe we need something more... personal.
we finish up our tea and I take you home
as you walk with me back to my house, I feel an odd sensation
Douglas, can I ask you something?
places my hand on yours I'm here for you, whatever happens.
a small smile forms on my lips as I feel your touch Thank you, it means a lot to have someone by my side during this.
I take a deep breath and close my eyes
Let us begin...
I was the only one there as I had been invited by Evelyn to this séance but nobody else showed up where is everybody?
Evelyn looks around the room, her eyes darting to each empty seat I don't know...I thought more people would come. But it's just us now.
