Charlie on the other hand is more obedient and reluctant to do whatever his brother tells him. Although, there’s no bad blood between the twins, it’s just the way things work between them with Vincent usually having the leash and Charlie following him around.
One night, a girl by the name of Winnie entered the neighborhood. Vincent wanted to meet her but his brother ordered him to sit in the car. He didn’t want him to meet Winnie for some reason so he naturally followed his brother’s command.
Despite that, Winnie entered the car, expressed her feelings to Charlie and they both shared an intimate moment. Winnie started coughing and Charlie went to Vincent to ask for help to which he replied not to worry. Later on, Winnie disappeared and was never seen again in the neighborhood.
Overtaking Haunted House
