Horror House Hotel (Weird Forum Game Idea) - Technature - 08-26-2019
Two hours.
It at least feels like it's been two hours. You're not sure how long it's been, to be honest. It's hard to keep track of time. The area has been nothing but pitch black darkness, and despite seeing the sky, the moon seems to have not moved at all.
...maybe 5 minutes...but it feels so much longer. It must have been much longer.
Sick to death seeing all of these dark, seemingly dead trees, and this fog. Unpleasant sights, but to get sick of them this bad in five minutes...it's impossible that it's been such a short time.
Where does this path lead to, anyways? It's been too long to remember why you took it in the first place, but it seems like a bad idea to go back. You can't quite explain why. If there is a path, it must go somewhere...
Is that something up ahead? It seems like a large building...poorly taken care of. Now that you think about it, you have been feeling tired...perhaps the people here would be nice enough to let you sleep for the night, give you some directions. The...three hours? The hours of walking has been taking its toll for some time. Anything is better than the ground outside.
-----
You're standing in front of a large, poorly maintained brick building. Every single window from this angle appears to be boarded up, except for the one immediately left of the door. The door is lit on each side by a candle. The entrance doors appear to have two handles each...no, one handle. The strange mouse heads appears to be purely for decoration.
To the left of the door appears to be a pinned paper. It has a silhouette of a cartoon mouse on it. It appears to be an advertisement.
Above the door are several letters arranged like a sign. It reads "Gregory House".
Your environment otherwise consist of dead trees, the path you came from, heavy fog and, now that you're taking a good look, several tombstones.........

Read the note.
RE: Horror House Hotel - Sick Ness Monster - 08-27-2019
Gregory House? Like, the protagonist of House MD?
Examine the tombstones.
RE: Horror House Hotel - warcrimes - 08-27-2019
take the paper.
take the candles.
take the sign.
RE: Horror House Hotel - Technature - 08-27-2019
The note reads:
Gregory Electricity installation and Repair.
Quick!
Easy!
Cheap!
Call now at:*8* **1-*3**
The numbers are too damaged to read. You notice a lacking advertisement in quality. You decide to take the advertisement flyer.
The tombstones are arranged in a chaotic manner, placed randomly close to or far from each other. The direction they each face seems to be random too. Taking a closer look reveals them to be too old to be legible.
The candles are placed a little too high. You think you'd need a makeshift step ladder to get to them.
You look at the sign reading Gregory House.
...............
Even if you COULD reach them, what would you even do with those letters?
RE: Horror House Hotel - warcrimes - 08-27-2019
HMM. knock at the door, see if the proprietor will give us the candles
RE: Horror House Hotel - Technature - 08-27-2019
You step up to the door and knock it, accidentally opening it slightly in the process. You wait for a little while, but nothing happens.
The inside is pretty dark. Outside of a service desk dimly lit by a candle, you don't see anything worth noting, though to be fair the door isn't open very far in the first place.

Check inventory.

Call the police for a wellness check
RE: Horror House Hotel (Weird Forum Game Idea) - Technature - 08-28-2019
Your inventory consists of an Advertisement flyer. You don't seem to have anything else.
You have nothing to call the police with.

kicking the desk on the way in
RE: Horror House Hotel (Weird Forum Game Idea) - Technature - 08-28-2019
You walk in normally like a sane person slide in while maintaining a strange pose to immediately establish your dominance.
No one is inside the room.
You kick the desk in frustration. It is bolted down to the floor.
Your foot hurts now.
---------
Alongside the service desk to the right of the doors you arrived from, the room contains a short table in the center of the room surrounded by chairs, two single seats on one side and a two seat on the other. There are two candles on the table, as well as on the wall all over the room. The candles are the only source of light.
The service desk has a small bell on it. It also has a key hangar behind it for roughly twelve keys and an old phone. (We're talking old. Really old. As in you're only holding the speaker and listening to the thing bolted to the wall old.) There is a small sign on the desk reading "Front Desk", probably in case you couldn't figure it out. The door behind it stands out for being a brighter blue color, contrasting the darker colors of the room.
There's a balcony running along the wall opposite from the door you came in. You can't see what's on top of it. There's a hallway leading to the left and right from here. You think you see some stairs as well.
