You wake up on a steel bed, with a hard mattress. You're freezing. You huddle the thin, natty blanket towards you, but it seems to make you colder, if anything.

Your name is Thomas. You and your friends came here, to [b]SPOOPWICH MANSION,[b] to stay overnight. You have vague memories of a long, boozy night. You finally admitted to Jenifer how much you liked her, she played it off as a joke, you tried to grope her, everyone made you sleep alone in this room.
But now, upon waking, you feel that something has gone horribly wrong. That perhaps the rumors surrounding Spoopwich were right.
You fear for your friends, but you know, in the pits of your mind, that you have only one goal.

ESCAPE SPOOPWICH MANSION.

The door to the left, where you know the rest of your friends slept, is locked. You don't know where the key is.
There is a door to the right, which should lead to the upper foyer, and by extension, the rest of the mansion.
There is also an entrance to the attic.

>KNOCK DOOR
You knock politely on the door, noting that the only locks on the door seem to be on your side.
You knock once again.
"Guys? Guys, c'mon! I know you're in there!"
No response.
You bang on the door, shouting for your friends to answer.
No response. Just the hollow echo of what seems to be an empty room behind the door.

>TAP WALLS
Gasp! The walls sound like there are empty spaces on the other side of them! Perhaps because this room is on the interior of the house. You can't find any hidden entrances or exits in this room.
>DUMP PACK
You find one (1) old Receez Peceez wrapper. And get a bunch of dirt and tiny paper scraps and such on the floor.
>SEARCH DRESSER
Rifling through the dresser, you don't find much. Looks like children's clothing, motheaten to the point of uselessness. Some small toys, a ball-and-cup. A was of socks, densely packed.
Digging into the sockball, you find that it was actually molded around a diary.
You're not sure if you should open it. Who would you be to disobey the wishes of someone who writes "Do not read" in such a frilly way?

>Defile a small dead girl's trust in man by reading her diary, even though it specifically says not to read it
It's not really pitch dark in here, and you have pretty decent night vision. You can read it fine.
There's only two pages. Not, like, the other pages are ripped out, this thing looks like it was only printed with the two pages.
The first looks like a normal diary entry.

Dear Diary, I'm sorry I haven't written to you in a while. Mother has had me so busy preparing me for my first act of witchery! She says we're going to perform the Ritual Of Key-Getting first, since it's so easy any schmuck could do it. I'm so excited!
The twins aren't doing well. They still have that dreadful cough. We're lucky it hasn't already to anyone else. The podiatrist came by recently, and Mother wouldn't let me talk to him, but I could tell, he didn't think there was much he could do.
Talk to you again soon, Diary!


There's small writing at the bottom, heavily crossed out, but you can still pretty much read it.

PS Saw that tall boy outside again yesterday, wish Mother would let me out to see him
Imagination will have to do

You turn to the second page.
It looks like a small page of instructions on how to perform the Ritual Of Key-Getting! It says that the pentagram thing is already set up in the basement, and just needs some items to actually start the spell.

Huh. Not sure you want to try possibly dangerous possibly complete bunk witchcraft. Hold onto the book for now, though.

>GO
You head out the open door to the right, entering the UPPER FOYER.
You can't see any sources of light, but the place is lit up decently enough for you to see. A thick layer of dust coats everything evenly, although you remember everybody fooling around through the entire house just last night. There are no windows.
The UPPER FOYER is built like a large U around the lower; you stand in the hall that makes up the leftmost side, with the railing in front of you covering a fall into the lower floor. There are two doors to your left, the central staircase leading to the LOWER FOYER, and three doors on the right-hand side of the U.
The railing looks old and moldy - if you leaned on it, it's likely it would break.

The painting swings open, revealing a ladder heading up!

It appears to be on heavy, mechanized hinges. Maybe if you had some tools and time you could pop it off, but it seems to be on there pretty solid. And it's not like you can just add a whole painting to your INVENTORY! It would totally be larger than you can hold.

You climb up the ladder.
This room seems to be in the attic, based on the curving roof-like-ness of the ceiling. There's a row of coffins lining the walls, going from largest to smallest. The two largest have "His 'n Hers: Spoopwich" embossed on their fronts. The smallest has "Mr. Whiskernubbins" on it.

You check the room directly to the left of the room you woke in.
There's a pair of cribs pushed against the wall. There's a variety of small toys scattered around the floor, and a tiny bookshelf full of old, moldy children's books. There's another door to the ATTIC in the ceiling.

You tear the small blanket off. It's... just a lightbulb on a hook?
What?

No! Impossible! They wouldn't know how to set up a wire on some kind of motorized spring or coil connected to a proximity sensor attached to a lightbulb covered by a blanket, ever! Even if they pooled all their engineering know-how together!
They're kind a stupid, honestly.
>Wave your hand above it
You slap the wire, knocking the lightbulb off the hook. It shatters on the ground.
A tug on the wire brings it down to about two meters, before it stops. Presumably, it's reached the end of it's spool.
It's being fed through a small hole in the ceiling. It's thin and dark and semi-clear; that must be why you didn't notice it approaching the crib.
It's anchored too firmly to just tear down. If you wanted to bring it with you, you'd need something to cut it down with.

Boy howdy, that sure is a mirror. A piece of reflective glass. You can see stuff behind you in it. And yourself. Particularly, you can see your definetely not girly face. With these short, sharp locks of hair and clearly not impossibly long eyelashes. And your nose, which is not cute and button-like in any way. And your squared, rigid, sharp, not soft and rounded chin.
Manly.

Anyway, more about the mirror. It has some small scratches and corrosion on the edges.

You have entered the MUSIC ROOM. This room looks even more disused than the others; the everpresent layer of dust covers the wide assortment of instruments piled in the room, and this layer of dust is accentuated by large, wispy cobwebs draping themselves just about everywhere. There is a mirror against the far wall. There's a grand piano in the center of the room, flanked on either side by a large harp and some kind of fancy lookin' Neil Peart giant fuckoff drumset on a rotating platform. The harp seems to be strangely designed; first off, it's massive, far bigger than you'd think a harp should need to be. There are also small hooks imbedded in the frame of the instrument.

You actually know how to play this thing. You've been cast in some commercials where you dressed up like an angel and had to play the harp while the main actor talked about soap or diapers or whatever it was.
However, you can't play this thing! The strings are incredibly stiff, they have almost no give. You can thump them and the vibrate a small tone, but you can't play it at all.
To the drum!

You got no idea how to play these. You just... hit them with the sticks? You've never actually messed around with a drum kit.
You take a seat on the small stool behind the drum kit, and feel the seat sink down a little bit. With a jerk, you're almost knocked from the seat, as the drum kit suddenly spins and raises! You hop down to investigate.
Hm! It looks like as the stage raised, it revealed a small compartment in the side! You grab a small key from the compartment.

You quickly run off screen, back into the first room, and try the key on the door. Doesn't seem to work. The lock on that door looks like one of those giant, important kinds of locks. You'd probably need an important-looking key for it. Like, some kind of Final Boss key, that's like the size of your hand, and has a big eye on the end, or something.

NO! They obviously just needed a male angel! Male angels are a thing! They're called cherubs! Like, cupid is a cherub! You were totally a cherub! They just... they needed five angels and a cherub!

>NEXT ROOM
You head across the hall to the room directly across from this one.
This room is pretty large; probably the size of the music room. The floor is covered in bright hardwood, coated with dust just like everywhere else. There's a large locker set against the wall, about closet sized. The far wall is a single large mirror, with a metal bar across it. The mirror is scratched and corroded around the edges. A part of the floor in the corner looks fairly rotten, and there's a steady drip and drizzle falling into that spot from a small crack in the ceiling.
You have entered the DANCE ROOM.

You begin to pull on the second leg.


...no.
No, you do not really want to wear a tutu.
Noooooo.
You tear off the tutu. Wearing a tutu should be a last resort! You would never willingly wear one, unless it was the absolute, last option.
I mean, your clothing is perfectly good right now! You've got a... dress made out of old bedsheets.
But it's not a tutu!

You head back to the music room, setting the box on the piano. Playing Sex Machine elicits a few unlocky-sounding clunks from the lock as the lid appears to loosen just a bit, but when you stop at the end of the incomplete sheet, it closes up firmly again. It seems like playing the full song would unlock it, but just half doesn't do the trick.

You crack your knuckles, preparing yourself to play the song all true men should know. A song written by the manliest composer to ever live; Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Seriously, dude was fucking nuts. And he wrote one of your favorite party songs.

>DO PIGTAILS
Yeah! Pigtails could be cool. Lots of awesome manly guys have had ponytails and pigtails and stuff. Like samurai! You're pretty sure you saw a picture of one of them with a ponytail once, and pigtails are just double pony tails, so you'd be, like, a double samurai. But, you don't have anything to tie your hair off with. Hm.
After a bit of critical thinking, you tear off a strip from the bottom of your dress temporary bedsheet covering. You consider tearing a second off, but that would make your dress kilt far too short.

In your panic, it looks like you knocked over the coffins, in a domino reaction. Most of them are still closed, but it looks as if the lock on one of them broke when it fell to the floor. The coffin isn't even hollow; it's a solid block of some lightweight wood. A quick knock on the others confirms that the only coffin with a hollow space inside was the one containing the beast that scratched up your face.

That cat might make a good pet... or might be infected. Find some disinfectant or alcohol, and plan a way to capture the cat.

poor thing was probably trapped in there a while, no wonder it freaked out.
