Chillingly good stuff. The atmosphere described here is intense and I really love that last picture of Olive. She looks like one scary old lady there. You know, the sort that you could imagine waking up at the end of your bed in a haunted house!

Thanks. I really like Olive though, but I don't think many people would respond well if I presented her in a less frightening light :P

Very creepy, and entirely in keeping with the Specter estate. Good job!

:O SO CREEEPY!!!

I looooove the last shot, tho, without her face, not like she's not creepy enough at it is, LOL! but the close up of the knife its perfect!! ;)

And great job with 100 words, so much said in so little!!
Very good!

Thanks ale! Now it's your turn to update ;) I need to know what will happen next in Obsession! WILL SHE GET PASCAL OR NOT?

I was worried about the knife shot, actually, so thanks for the reassurance. I think it's just a bit more creepy without the face...less personal and more just scary.

Yep, Its a lot creepier without the face, just the close up. It works great for the whole concept. ;)
Like on a good scary moooviiieeee!!! :o

My game is still down, though :( *sigh*
I need to reinstall the whole darn thing, but at least I left the scenes set up before it broke, and the text is also written, so as soon as I have my sims back, it'll be just taking the right pictures. ;)

:( I hope you get your game back soon...I would go mad if Sims wasn't installed/working. I don't even play it for weeks sometimes, but it's reassuring just knowing it's there.

...Okay, that sounded a lot less strange in my head.

I love the POV switch, especially that it goes from 1st to 2nd, because 2nd POV is my absolute fave. And it really helps up the creepy factor.

Your Olive is terrifying.

Oh good. I was worried about the switch, but I'm glad it worked. I love 2nd POV too but it's often so difficult to use well.

I know, right? Something bad must have happened to her to make her that way... *ponders*
