It was dark outside when Elandra stepped outside from the bar. "Man I was in there for too long" she thought. The sun was hanging lazily in the sky when she went in but now it was pitch black outside save for the street lights. Elandra glanced a her watch and it read 2:47 AM. "Well I've got to be up in about four hours so I might as well just stay up and drink some coffee" she sighed to herself. As she started the long walk home from the bar she noticed that the air was unnaturally still and there wasn't any of the normal city noises either. "Well this is weird" she thought, but she kept on walking, the faster she got home the faster she could shake this feeling of uneasyness that she'd been feeling since she'd left the bar. When she was about halfway from her house she heard a loud cracking sound like someone cracking a whip in the alley way ahead of her. When she rounded the corner of the alleyway she stopped and stared in horrified silence at the sight she beheld. Strung up from a fire escape was the remains of a man in his late sixties. He was a slight man with short cropped hair and a long scraggly beard the color of salt, he had the look of a vagrant about him and would have been fine were it not for the fact that he was hanging by his neck suspended from a rope connected to the fire escape on the fifth floor of the neighboring appartment complex. Elandra stood there in stunned silence for another few seconds before taking out her cellphone and quickly calling the Police. The Police arrived shortyl after the call was made and started cordoning off the area. Shortly after the area was sealed off Detective Mike Rourke arrived and our story truly begins.
