ai photo manipulation: labyrinth of horrors

The scene opens up to reveal a dimly lit room filled with shadows and creeping sounds from every corner. The only source of light comes from a single bulb hanging high overhead, casting eerie shadows across the floor. In the center of this chamber stands a large wooden desk, upon which sits a grandfather clock ticking away at its own pace.

Above it hangs a small lamp, illuminating the face of the timepiece as if waiting for someone to come forward and take notice. Suddenly, there's a loud bang coming from somewhere deep within the labyrinthine corridors of the building. It seems like something has fallen over, but no one can quite tell what exactly happened.

As they all stand still, frozen by fear, another sound echoes through the hallways - footsteps approaching their location. They know whoever it is must be close now; they just have to wait until they make themselves known before taking action. As the seconds pass by slowly, each member of the group begins to feel more anxious than ever before.

Their hearts are racing faster than usual while sweat drips down their faces due to nervousness alone. Finally, after several minutes had passed without any sign of movement outside of them being heard, suddenly everything goes silent once again except for those same dreadful footsteps getting closer and closer towards where everyone stood together. Without warning, two figures emerge out into view - both dressed head-to-toe in black clothing with masked faces concealing their identities completely!

One holds a knife raised high above his shoulder while the other brandishes some sort of weapon unknown to anyone present here tonight...
