![“[P]eople think that in order for something to be frightening, it has to be dark, musty, and full of cobwebs and secrets. That's a lie of epic proportion. The scariest, most unexplainable things happen in the bright light of day. And just when you least expect.” quote by Suzanne Palmieri](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/2fb/suzanne-palmieri-11031_frightening_p-eople-think-that-in-order-for-somethin_689606.jpg)
