Maria is engulfed in a wreathe of licking flames, and, with a terrifying whinny and a clattering of hooves, emerges as a nightmare. As a nightmare, she appears as a large black horse with dead, white eyes and flaming mane, tail, and fetlocks. These flames are not hot to the touch. She snorts black billows of smoke and has an otherworldly whinny that sends shivers down the spines of mortals.

in the cold hour of winter midnight a man skulks the streets of Ontario. Hands bloodied, tucked deep within the pockets of his coat as he paces down the sleeted path, high above a raven circles above the man, croaking sonorously in the dead of night following the man to his home. Entering his home, the man sanitised his hands, his knob , burns his coat and jeans in the blaze of his furnace changing into a new attire befitting of the cold night. As soon as he lay on his chair a sudden "KRAK,KRAK,KRAK" reverberated . He looked and their lay the crow on the kitchen counter gawking at him with it's bottomless pits. As he moves for the window a "thud" followed by a sharp "shh" came from behind, before he could turn something lodged in his throat and pulled out, blood seeped down in the gallons. The man falls, a shadow of a human figure looms over him with a stillness matching that of the cold air.
