I went into the kitchen and started digging through the freezer. Near the kitchen was a small room with an old floor hatch leading down into an unfinished, dirt-floor basement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile I was looking through the freezer, movement caught the corner of my eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe basement hatch was opening.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt lifted only far enough for something to come through. By the time I turned and looked directly at it, I saw a pale, hairless, impossibly thin figure moving on all fours. Its arms were long, its hind legs bent strangely beneath a raised back end, and its small dark eyes sat in a face I can still remember nearly three decades later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI screamed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy sister saw it too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhatever we saw ran across the basement area and disappeared into the laundry room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe did not follow it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo this day, I don't know what we saw that night, and I'm not going to give it a name simply because nothing I've found has ever completely matched what I remember.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeather \u0026amp; Labdanum gives the candle a dark, atmospheric character suited to old wood, shadowed rooms, and things better left beneath the floorboards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe antique-inspired label deliberately doesn't show what came through the hatch. Instead, an open refrigerator casts its ordinary light across the kitchen while the basement entrance sits open nearby, revealing nothing but darkness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes what you can't see is the part you remember longest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🗝️ \u003cstrong\u003eLeather \u0026amp; Labdanum\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSomething opened the door.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCandle Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Size: 9 oz\u003cbr\u003e• Amber glass vessel with gold lid\u003cbr\u003e• Coconut soy wax blend\u003cbr\u003e• Cotton wick, lead and zinc free\u003cbr\u003e• Approx. 45-hour burn time\u003cbr\u003e• Vegan wax blend\u003cbr\u003e• Gluten, paraben, and phthalate free\u003cbr\u003e• Made with renewable ingredients\u003cbr\u003e• Part of the Ghost Stories Collection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leather \u0026amp; Labdanum\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCandle Care\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrim the wick to approximately 1\/4 inch before each burn. For the first burn, allow the melted wax to reach the edges of the vessel to encourage an even burn and help prevent tunneling. Keep the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts and flammable materials. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep away from children and pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eI don't know what came out of that basement.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI only know that the door moved first.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shadow Threadz","offers":[{"title":"Leather \u0026 Labdanum","offer_id":64461911622001,"sku":"PMH74-L-LAL.1859838","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0906\/3533\/8097\/files\/4de639f9e1413ddc49b375352fa693e1646f835c.jpg?v=1787666514","url":"https:\/\/shadowthreadzshop.com\/products\/thing-beneath-the-house-candle-9oz","provider":"Shadow Threadz ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
