In the dressing room, the Gothic Goalie, known to his teammates as "The Shadow," was preparing for the upcoming game. His eyes, usually a deep, dark shade of Gothic, were filled with a haunting uncertainty. The team had been haunted by a series of strange occurrences, and whispers of a malevolent presence lingered in the air.

"Are you ready, Shadow?" whispered his closest friend and teammate, Alex. The Gothic Goalie nodded, his expression unchanging.

During a break in the action, the Gothic Goalie found himself drawn to her. He approached cautiously, his voice steady despite the pounding of his heart.

"Are you all right?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

The woman turned, her eyes meeting his. "I'm fine," she replied, her voice as cold as the ice. "But you're not."

The final shot was a beauty, a perfect arc that seemed to dance just out of reach. The Gothic Goalie lunged, his fingers stretching out to catch the puck. But as he reached, a shadowy figure stepped into the crease, a figure that had been there all along, unseen and silent.

The Gothic Goalie's eyes widened in shock as he realized the truth. The woman in the stands was not just a fan; she was the source of the haunting whispers, the one who had been manipulating him all along.
