The moment I stepped foot in this house I knew I was going to die, or maybe I was dying before I got here. I don't know, Mom always said I was a hypochondriac, but this feels different. There's something seriously strange about Harker Drake and finding out the truth will be the death of me. Werewolf, wizard, shapeshifter, heck maybe he's a robot and I'm just overthinking it. I thought he was a vampire, but like, come on, that would be so obvious. At the very least, he's totally annoying and clearly has an attitude problem.
