Samantha followed Christian through the house, examining the blood trail as she moved past it.  She paused near a rather sizable pool of blood.  She tilted her head to the side for a moment, looking at it in confusion.  The blood didn't really bother her that much, but there was something very odd about this particular pool of blood.  She crouched down low, tucked her pale hair behind her ears and leaned forward over the blood stain, inhaling deeply.  After a moment she sat back, her ass resting comfortably on the heels of her boots.  She looked over at Christian, seeing the question in his eyes and just shook her head.  "Don't ask, I really don't know yet."  Finally she stood up and following him up the stairs and into the bedroom.<br/><br/>The torn body nailed to the wall caught her attention and she moved past Christian to get a closer look.  The figure appeared to be male, althought nearly all identifying features had been ripped from the body.  Blood still oozed from many parts of the victim's body, but the skull appeared to have been cleaned, the pure white of the bone a stark contrast to all of the gore surrounded it.  Something round had been stuffed into the eye sockets.  It looked like some sort of stone, with varying shades of red running through it.  Samantha could have sworn she saw the strips of color swirling slightly as she examined the object.  She heard a sound behind her, and realized that Christian had been speaking to her.  A frown played across her full lips as her eyes were drawn back to the stones.  She jerked her head away and went over to stand beside Christian, looking down to see what he was poking at.  "No, it wasn't human.  Hell I'm not even sure that everything in this room is human, and I'm not talking about Fido over there," she motioned towards the small dogs head that had been crammed down over the knob on one of the bed posts.  "There is something else here too, in this house.  Did the guys find any more bodies?  Any unusual rooms, items, anything at all out of the ordinary?  Well...more out of the ordinary than this I guess."  The dark energies within the house were nearly overwhelming, and while she couldn't quite pinpoint their origin, she was positive that it wasn't coming from this room.<br/><br/>Her eyes moved quickly from the tiny finger, to Christian's face, and then back to the finger.  She sighed heavily.  "You know I have to use that right?"  She motioned to the finger.  "I know it's evidence, I know you don't like it, but it's also the purest specimen in the house.  And interestingly enough, it's also the only specimen in this house that actually belongs here.  This mess," she waved her hand around in the air, "none of it belongs here, hell most of it doesn't even belong together.  Even the dog, I don't know where it came from, but it didn't live here.  Now the child on the other hand, I'm pretty sure this is her home, but I don't think she's here anymore."  Her voice trailed off, and she looked around the room with confusion.  She wrapped her slender fingers around his upper arm, feeling the heat of his body through his suit.  Standing there, surrounded by death, it felt as if he body had come alive again for one brief moment.  Ignoring the feeling, she pulled Christian gently towards the door.  "Quick, we need to search this house.  Something else is here, and it knows we're here too."
