Phantom of the House

V4

[00:00–00:33] [The house awakens; dust swirls in faint moonlight.] [Quiet pipe organ intro] [00:33–00:44] [A distant soprano call echoes; the phantom halts, listening.] Ahhh (ah-ah) ... . . ... Ahhh (ah-ah) ... Ah-ah! [00:44–00:54] [Shadows shift as the phantom moves faster through empty halls.] [00:54–00:56] [A sudden scream; the phantom appears in anguish, shaking the air.] [Scream] (A-Ahh)! [00:56–01:16] [He glides slowly, hands brushing faded walls, steps soft as whispers.] 01:16–01:18 [Another piercing scream; the phantom disappears into darkness.] [Scream] (A-Ahh)! [01:18–01:28] [Footsteps resound; pizzicato strings trace his restless wandering.] [01:28–01:38] [The choir sighs; the house breathes heavily, deepening the tension.] Hmmmm (ohhh) Hmmmm (ohhh-ahhh) ... .. ... [Scream] (A-Ahh)! [01:38–01:50] [His voice emerges faintly, breaking the silence] [Phantom vocals]: Ahm-ah... ... .. ... [Phantom vocals]: I'm here ... .. ... [Phantom vocals]: Still here [01:50–02:02] [House introduces the phantom] [Choir] Shadows crawl, Walls breathe. Silence— [Phantom vocals]: But not alone. [02:02–02:30] [He fades into mist as the choir calls out with longing, haunting melodies.] [Silent choir] Ahhhhh (ohhhhh), ahhhhh— Ahhh-ahhh, ahhh-ahh-ahhh— Oohhhh-ahhh, ohhh-ahhh-ahhhhh— [Verse 1] [Phantom vocals] This house remembers. Each cry, each step. I linger. Forever. [Whispering] (Forever) [Breathing] (hhhh-hhhh) [Bridge] (hollow, dark) [Spectral Voice] Fingers on the glass— You hear me. [Breathing] (Ahh-Ahh-Ahhh) Cold breath— You feel me. [Drop] Stay! [Fade-out] [Bass whispering] ... ... ... ... ... Don't leave. ... ... ... ... ... I'm here. ... ... ... ... ... Always. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... [Fade-in] [Outro] (Driving strings, doors slam) [The house slams doors, windows, showing that there is someone in it and it doesn't want to see anyone else] [Soprano fade-out] Ahhh-ahhhh! [End]
