Charlie turned on the light.
The whole left side of the room was covered in that slimy viscous substance. In the light, it had a nauseating brownish-yellow color to it, which made Charlie wonder if maybe it was human waste. Although, it didn't smell.
He slowly moved around the room, making sure he didn't touch the slimy substance again. But everywhere he looked, he couldn't find anything. He was absolutely sure that the noise he heard came from this room. But what was making it?
"Hello?" he called out. "Is anyone in here?"
But there was still no answer.
