Stocking 8

A shadowy intruder quietly enters a house through the basement and moves silently up the stairs. But before he can enter the house, the door opens and Madison returns home from a night out in the dawn hour. Still tipsy she enters the kitchen, pours herself a glass of water, and drinks it quickly before heading to her bedroom, unaware she is being watched from the darkness.

In her bedroom Madison sits on the bed and goes through her phone, calling her friend that took her out for the night. During the conversation they mention a strange man who had behaved oddly at the party and may have followed them. Madison dismisses the concern and laughs it off, convinced the man was harmless. After ending the call, she sits on her bed and begins removing her stockings. She only gets one off before a noise from the hallway suddenly catches her attention. Alarmed, Madison picks up a nearby baseball bat and cautiously approaches the bedroom door. As she reaches it, the intruder suddenly lunges from the darkness and grabs her arm, forcing her against the wall. He restrains the arm holding the bat and places a hand around her throat as she struggles to fight him off. Madison struggle while the Intruder holds her against the wall with one hand on her neck and the other holding the wrist gripping the bat. Madison’s hand loses grip and the bat falls to the floor. The Intruder lets go of Madison’t wrist and wraps both hands around her neck squeezing hard. Her face goes wide from the intense pressure as she kicks her feet and struggles against him. The struggle goes on for a while as she gradually becomes weaker and weaker. 

The Intruder switches up his chokehold, pulling Madison away from the wall and locks his arms around her from behind in a rear bar hold. She grips at his arms trying to break free but forced to struggle in place. Her feet kick at the intruder behind him but he remains steadfast in his grip. Madison wiggles her body desperately but the pressure is tight and the eyes roll to the back of her head while her tongue sticks out, mouth gasping for air. After a time Madison begins to lose consciousness and both her hands fall to her sides. She continues to gasp for air as her eyes roll back, then her eyes grow heavy and she passes out. The Intruder pushes her forward onto the bed as he thinks what to do next.

Madison is only out for a moment face down on the bed, she gasps for air and turns around raising her hands defensively. Recognizing the man from the party she was at, she yells at him to stop. The Intruder snatches up the discarded stocking from the bed and hops on next to Madison, pushing her against the headboard. She yells at him but he covers her mouth with a hand and tells her to stay quiet. She pulls the hand away and cries out for him to get off her, but he doesn’t listen. Instead he takes the stocking and wraps it tight around her neck, pulling hard on either side. Madison struggles violently, clawing at the stocking and attempting to push him away. The Intruder tightens it as she fights for air. Her eyes roll and her tongue sticks out as she gasps desperately for air. Her feet kick up into the air and slide across the bed trying to get some leverage. She manages to crawl up on to her knees as the Intruder continues to hold on tight. She is on her knees struggling with eyes rolled back gripping at the stocking and slapping at her attacker. The fight gradually gets weaker as she coughs and sputters, eyes rolling constantly. The Intruder keeps holding on as she passes out and falls back on the bed with her eyes closed.

The Intruder checks her pulse and feels there is still a beat, letting her know that he isn’t don’t just yet. He pets her face then takes the stocking and ties a series of knots. She begins to wake up, struggling to gain focus. As he continues to tie the stocking she weakly pleads for him to stop but he pays her no mind. He pulls it taught and the tie keeps the pressure on without him touching it. Madison grips at the ligature trying to pry it free but the Intruder grabs her wrists and holds them down on the bed. Madison gasps for air as the slow but steady pressure from the stocking takes her breath away. Her feet kick out and she coughs desperately as the Intruder keeps her held down on the bed. After much struggle the Intruder figures Madison is weak enough he doesn’t have to hold her hands down. He lets go and looks closely at her while she weakly grips at the stocking around her neck with both hands while gagging and coughing. She is not able to break the stocking free so the Intruder backs off the bed. As Madison continues a struggle for her life, the Intruder enjoys his hands-free method of murder and runs his hands along her body and up and down her legs while she struggles in place on the bed too weak to get up. Madison writhes weakly on the bed as she attempts to breathe. Her movements slow and become uncoordinated as her oxygen runs out. She grows weaker and fades away, eyes watering and rolling wildly. Madison’s last moments of life laid out on the bed while her killer continues to touch her incessantly. Eventually her movements stop and she goes still. The Intruder lifts her arms and lets them fall, leaning in close for some final looks. Then he shakes his head and makes his escape, leaving his victim laid out with the stocking still wrapped tightly.
