Bblythe, still pale from the horrifying scene she’d glimpsed, hurriedly added, “Yeah, yeah, they’re not in there.”

The cameraman looked puzzled. “But we heard noises from outside.”

Before he could finish, another familiar scream echoed from outside the door.

“Move! What the hell is happening out there?” the cameraman tried to push past.
