When Arthur Belding was a child he could swear that he heard an unexplainable voice talking to him from the shadows of his Aunt Helen’s basement. When he returns to visit her many years later as an adult he is convinced that the voice was merely the overactive imagination of a little boy. But as night falls and the house grows quiet, Arthur can still hear that voice drifting up the stairs from out of the basement’s impenetrable darkness.
