Hunting Hunter - Open Starter!
{{ Just for fun because writing horror is actually my preference and who says it has to be confined to a season? Open to anyone who wants to claim it and it can make the jump to the new discord if you like! This can be a prank played on him that goes a little haywire or something more sinister~

As he closes the door to the shop for the final time Hunter lets out a content sigh. It had been a decidedly long work day with not only new shipment coming in but interviews for new hires and also a sudden call from back home intermixed with the regular workload. It was by no means a bad day, just a very long one indeed. He turns the lock to the main door and switches off the glowing ‘COME IN FOR A SPELL’ sign in the window.
He had sent his workers home already and so its just him that remains and that would be typically fine by him. Tonight though, something shifts. It happens almost the second that he flips the switch for the main lights and the room goes to the warmer golden lights of the glass cases that hold the jewelry, special crystals and scrying tools for purchase. The energy in the space goes from pleasant ambiance to chillingly haunting. The skin of his arms lifts with goosebumps and Hunter takes a cautionary look around the main area of the store. A spirit? Bad lingering energy from that weirdo customer earlier?
For a few moments he just waits it out and when it seems like nothing is going to happen is when he hears it. The sound of something scratching. He can’t quite pinpoint where it’s coming from but he hears it clear as day before it stops.
“I’m too old for this shit, please, just show yourself.”
