A baby pressed his face against the wall every hour, always in the same place. His father thought it was just a phase. But when the child finally spoke, he uttered three words that shed light on everything. And the truth was absolutely terrifying.

But Ethan was scratching David’s chest, desperately trying to turn around to look at the wall again. That was the first night that David wept because of it. Something was really wrong. The next morning, he called a child psychologist.

“I don’t want to sound crazy,” David said, “but I think my baby is trying to tell me something.” Something he can’t express in words… and it’s terrifying.

The psychologist, Dr. Mitchell, came to see them the next day. She watched Ethan, played with him, spoke to him softly, and finally he walked to that same corner and pressed his face against the wall again. Dr. Mitchell seemed concerned.

“David,” she asked in a low voice, “has anyone else entered this house since your wife’s death?”

“No,” he replied, “only nurses, but none of them stayed more than a month.”

Ethan cried every time they entered the room. All of them have resigned. Dr. Mitchell asked if she could talk to Ethan alone for a few minutes, through a two-way mirror in his office. David hesitated, then finally agreed.

The moment David walked out of the room, the baby didn’t cry. He simply walked to the corner and turned his face back to the wall.

Several minutes passed. Then Ethan began to make small sounds. At first, no one understood what he was saying, only almost inaudible murmurs. Dr. Mitchell leaned forward in her chair, her mouth parted in amazement. When David returned, she was extremely pale.
