It was a warm summer evening, and a group of five friends decided to go on an adventure. They had heard rumors about an abandoned asylum on the outskirts of town and were intrigued by the idea of exploring it. None of them had ever been inside an asylum before, and they were excited to see what they would find.

The group consisted of Mia, a bubbly and adventurous girl, Tyler, the group's leader and a risk-taker, Liam, a smart and analytical guy, Sophia, a quiet and introverted girl, and Alex, the prankster of the group. They all piled into Tyler's car and drove towards the abandoned asylum. None of them knew what they were getting themselves into.

As they made their way towards the abandoned building, the group began to feel a sense of unease. The asylum was located in a remote area, and the surrounding woods were dense and foreboding. The building itself was enormous, with high walls and barred windows that gave the impression of a fortress.

Despite their growing apprehension, the group pressed on, fueled by their sense of curiosity. As they approached the entrance, they noticed that the front door was slightly ajar, as if someone had recently entered or exited the building. This only heightened their excitement, and they eagerly pushed their way inside.

The interior of the asylum was dark and musty, and the air was thick with the smell of decay. The walls were adorned with peeling wallpaper, and the floors were littered with debris and dust. As they walked deeper into the building, the group noticed that many of the doors to the patient rooms were still intact, and they peered through the small windows, hoping to catch a glimpse of what lay inside.

They explored the first floor, finding nothing but empty rooms and furniture covered with sheets. They made their way up to the second floor, where they found a room that had been used as a laboratory. The equipment was old and outdated, but it still looked like it had been used recently. They also found a room filled with old medical records, some of which were marked with red X's. They shuddered at the thought of what might have happened to the patients who had been marked for treatment.

It wasn't until they reached the third floor that they realized something was amiss. As they were exploring one of the patient rooms, they heard a faint whisper coming from down the hall. At first, they thought it was just their imagination playing tricks on them, but the whisper grew louder and more distinct.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from the end of the hallway. The group froze, unsure of what to do. They could see the silhouette of a figure approaching them, and they could hear the sound of heavy breathing. As the figure came into view, the group realized that they were not alone in the asylum.

The figure was a man, dressed in ragged clothing, with wild, unkempt hair. His eyes were dark and sunken, and he looked like he hadn't slept in days. The man approached them slowly, a look of suspicion on his face.

"What are you doing here?" he asked, his voice hoarse.

The group stuttered, unsure of how to respond. They explained that they were just exploring the building, and they meant no harm. The man eyed them warily but seemed to relax slightly.

"I've been living here for the past few weeks," he said. "I came here looking for a place to hide, and I haven't left since. It's not safe out there, you know."

The group was taken aback by the man's words. They had heard rumors about the asylum being haunted, but they never imagined that someone would be living there.

As they talked to the man, they began to
