The stranger climbed in throught the open window of one of the children's bedrooms downstairs quietly. It was seven o'clock. Dinner time. He knew this well, they were all sitting at the table discussing why John, the eldest son, dropped out of yet another sport.
The stranger had watched the family for months. He knew their every move. And now..it was time to make his.
He walked down the hallway tracking mud on the mother's white carpet. It had been raining outside. She wouldn't appreciate it. Ofcourse, She, would never discover it.
He continued down the hallway and through the Living room slowly..Making sure not to make a sound. He came to the doorway of the Dining room which was connected to another door way leading to the kitchen. They never used the Dining Room. Only on holidays. The man walked to the kitchen doorway and the father raised his eyes to him,"How did you get in here? Is there something I can help you with?"
"Yessssss" the man hissed and raised his right arm which held tightly in his hand was a butcher knife. The mother screamed and grabbed her youngest child sitting in the highchair next to her.
Then the brutal slaughterings began.
When the stanger was done he walked over to the sink and washed off the knife then places it in the knife holder where it belong. Where no one even noticed it was missing...three weeks ago.

"Holy shit...Dan get your ass over here!! What happened?! You can't quit!" The suited man yelled. "I don't know sir....But I'm not working on this house anymore."Dan answered.
"I thought you said you cleaned up all the blood." "We did sir."
"Then why is it still here?"
"I don't know sir. We've been trying to clean it up for three days sir. When we leave each day it's gone. But every morning when we come back, sir, the blood is back on the walls and carpet sir."
The suited man stormed into the house. As he did, He started yelling at the men to get back to work. As he was he felt something trickle down his neck. He put his hand on the back of his neck and brought it to his face. "Blood." He looked up at the ceiling,"What the...Dan!!??" The man yelled. "Get in this house. I'm going upstairs to see why blood is leaking through the second floor still!!!"
The suited man then ran up the stairs to the one of the childrens rooms leaving the other workers confused. They looked at one another. "Dan? There's no Dan working with us."
They then heard the suited man's scream from upstairs.
