    The hunter got lost in the forest and found an empty cabin to stay in for the night. When he went inside, he saw that there was a comfortable bed and a fire burning. However, the walls were covered with incredibly detailed and realistic family portraits that made him feel uncomfortable. In the morning, he discovered that the walls only had windows, not portraits. The character heard a noise coming from the basement and thought they stepped in blood when going to investigate. In the basement, they noticed a bad smell and saw a shadow move. They found a flashlight and saw that the "monster" making the noises was actually their sick dog that had thrown up after eating a ketchup bottle.
