darkness her name was Elise she was only 16 with a whole life ahead of her she was walking home from school one afternoon when she noticed the car Monique was behind the wheel smiling sweetly offering her a ride Elise hesitated but Monique's motherly demeanor put her at ease what harm could come from accepting a ride from someone so harmless as soon as Elise shut the door behind her she knew something was wrong the air in the car felt heavy oppressive Michel was in the back seat silent his eyes watching her through the rearview mirror the road twisted and turned leading deeper into the woods away from the safety of town Elisa's heart pounded in her chest as she glanced out the window watching the trees blow by they were heading into the unknown and she could feel the walls closing in on her the trees grew thicker the light dimmer and soon the car stopped in the middle of nowhere her cries echoed through the empty Woods piercing the Stillness of the air but no one heard no one was coming Melle and Monique had chosen their location carefully far from prying eyes far from help together they silenced her forever the wood became her tomb and their trail of horror had only just begun after release there were more Michelle was not a hunter of animals but of the innocent his eyes gleamed with a predatory hunger as he stalked his prey each new victim fueling his insatiable thirst for control and death but he wasn't alone Monique who had once been meek and broken had become something else entirely a predator in her own right they perfected their methods Monique would lure the victims using her unassuming nature to disarm them Michelle would strike quick and brutal their targets were always the weak the vulnerable the ones who couldn't fight back girls with wide trusting eyes boys with no one to notice when they disappeared they used deceit fear and brutality to capture to their prey leaving nothing behind but Echoes of Terror each new life they took added to their growing list of victims the fear they created was tangible a dark cloud that hung over the town though no one could pinpoint its source years passed and the couple's evil remained hidden a cold silence between their public faces and their private monstrosities to the outside world they were just Michelle and Monique a quiet couple who kept to themselves they weren't social but they weren't suspicious either their neighbors would see them out on walks hand in hand like any other couple Michelle with his stoic face always seemed distant but never alarming Monique with her withdrawn nature was simply seen as shy together they existed on the edge of society just close enough to blend in but far enough to avoid suspicion their modest home was a place of nightmares the rooms were filled with the remnants of their crimes trophies of the lives they had taken but no one ever crossed the threshold of that house no one ever heard the screams that had once echoed within those walls Michelle and Monique were masters of deception keeping their Horrors concealed behind locked doors and closed curtains to the outside world they were just another faceless couple nothing more than shadows in the crowd as the years wore on Michelle's thirst for control deepened he had to have more his desire for power over life and death consumed him but with each kill his grip on reality loosened the line between predator and prey blurred and Michelle began to spiral Monique watched as her husband unraveled she too had changed no longer the passive accomplice she had become an active participant in the slaughter the darkness that had once frightened her now filled her with a sense of purpose together they were no longer just a couple they were monsters but even Monsters can't hide forever it started with a mistake Michelle in his growing arrogance became careless he was no longer satisfied with the small victories the quiet killing ings he craved recognition though he didn't realize it his ego blinded him to the cracks forming in their perfect facade one of their victims escaped she was broken battered but alive she told the authorities what had happened describing a faceless couple who had taken her who had tried to destroy her her story was dismissed at first too Fantastical too horrifying but the police couldn't ignore the growing number of disappearances soon the puzzle pieces began to fall into place Michael's name started to surface in connection with the missing girls and once the authorities began to dig deeper they realized they had a monster on their hands the night Michelle was captured there was no dramatic Chase no final confrontation he had grown sloppy and his ego had become his downfall the police moved Swift ly arresting him as he left his home one morning his face cold and expressionless as though he knew this moment was inevitable Monique watched from the window as they took him away her face a mask of calm she knew they would come for her too and they did but she didn't fight she didn't scream she simply let them take her just as she had taken so many others the town once so quiet and unassuming erupted in shock and horror the people who had lived next to Michelle and Monique who had greeted them on the streets who had smiled and waved at them in passing now realized they had been living alongside true evil the truth was too much to bear when the truth came to light it shocked the nation The Faceless couple Michelle and Monique had claimed the lives of so many and their Acts were as monstrous as they were methodical their victims were finally given voices and the stories that emerged were more horrific than anyone could have imagined the Press dubed them the faceless Killers title that seemed fitting to the outside world they had always been faceless blending into the background unnoticed unremarkable but now their true faces had been revealed and the horrors they had committed could never be forgotten even after they were imprisoned the Spectre of their crimes loomed large the families of the victims the towns they had terrorized and the people who had once known them could never escape the shadow
