Slumber Shops
The warm air slowly becomes apparent, as one sets foot on the store's checkered floor. The surroundings consist of stocked aisles, the smell of which is easy to make out. The area resembles a convenience store, though much larger than one would expect.
Lights overhead are strangely bright in comparison to typical fluorescent lights with noises emanating from behind the aisles and echoing from the ceiling, never revealing. The food on the shelves appear to be fresh, but eating them is ill-advised.
as while they smell great, they don't taste as pleasant. Some doors are locked with noises indicating movement hidden behind them. As one wanders through the store the lights may go out. The lack of lights is accompanied by dead silence.
However, the silence is broken by something more unnerving… Footsteps. Their source is undiscernible as they slowly increase in volume, eventually being heard only feet away. The lights blinding as they turn back on. Everything is as it was, however, something seems awry. They are wide open.
