Vincent Wolf and Miyazaki Saeri arrived at the haunted house, only to unexpectedly find a bustling scene.
Many people were queuing in front of the haunted house, demonstrating its popularity.
“Saeri, do you think all these people queuing for the haunted house are believers? Why are there so many people?”
“They shouldn’t be. A gathering at a base usually consists of only about ten people, but this queue has dozens!”
Saeri was also perplexed. She took out her phone and began to read a description of the haunted house on an app.
The app was similar to Dianping, where you could see reviews for different stores.
After reviewing the app for a while, Saeri said to Vincent:
“This haunted house is extraordinary!”
“Extraordinary? Isn’t it just a haunted house?”
“No. This haunted house is highly rated. The comments suggest it’s terrifying, with many people being dragged out by staff members. The horror level is rated five stars!
“Hah, how can it be scarier than demon beasts, it’s not even real. People these days are so dramatic.” Vincent scoffed.
“Don’t be so sure. How do you know you won’t be scared if you haven’t experienced it? Try not to faint from fear before finding the entrance.”
“Psh.”
While Vincent was dismissive on the surface, in his heart he began to respect the haunted house.
If the haunted house is widely accepted, it must have something special.
There’s a girl next to him. He musn’t fail and make her look down on him.
“Hmpf, let’s try then, let’s see what’s so great about it!” Vincent immediately Dulled Saeri towards the haunted house to Queue.
While in line, a commotion came from the front. Vincent looked closely and saw that two tourists had fainted from fright in the haunted house and were being carried out for emergency care.
Based on the reactions of staff and onlookers, it was clear such an incident was not a rare occurrence. The emergency care was done efficiently, and the two tourists soon regained consciousness, but they were still panting and looked drained.
“Thi…This…it is true!”
Vincent’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“It does look really frightening.”
Coming to his senses, Vincent said seriously:
“Hmm, it does seem interesting, but it might be a bit too exciting for a young girl like you. I think we need to think this through.”
“I grew up in a shrine. Do you think I would be scared of a haunted house? Don’t worry, if you’re scared you can hide in my arms. It’s normal for a young boy to be scared.”
“How could I be scared?!”
Vincent immediately retorted, while Saeri smirked, chuckling to herself.
The queue in front of the haunted house moved quickly, and it soon came to Vincent’s and Saeri’s turn.
At the entrance of the haunted house, a staff member was introducing the projects within.
“Currently, this haunted house offers three different experiences, and the one available today is called Qingchuan Hospital.”
The staff member pointed to the introduction and warnings for the haunted house project.
“People with cardiovascular disease, arrhythmias, or similar conditions are prohibited from participating. Minors between the ages of twelve and sixteen should be accompanied by a parent. We also have a disclaimer. The next batch of tourists, please come forward to sign.”
Vincent glanced at the introduction of the haunted house project.
“Qingchuan Hospital, once the largest mental hospital on Qingchuan Island, held over 200 patients suffering from acute mental disorders. Twenty years ago, during the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, everyone in the hospital mysteriously died. The Qingchuan Hospital project is based on these true events…Wow!”
Vincent gasped.
This is based on real events?
Do the people at Bai Gui Hui have too much free time?
At this point, the staff member handed Vincent and Saeri a disclaimer each.
The disclaimer listed a few precautions and stated that if anything happened due to violation of these regulations, the haunted house would not be responsible.
Vincent knew this was essentially the same as signing a blank check. However, this development added to his anxiety.
“Inside Qingchuan Hospital, the truth behind the mysterious death of all the patients lies. If you find it within twenty minutes, you win the game. By the way, no one has succeeded yet. Alright, please go in.”
The staff finished talking and gestured towards the dark entrance.
“It’s fake, all of it is fake!”
Vincent tried to boost his own morale as he followed closely behind Saeri into the haunted house.
Inside the haunted house, the music echoed eerily. At first, it sounded ethereal and pleasant, but after hearing it a few times combined with the eerie surroundings, it started to become disturbing, as if a ghost was hovering nearby.
The inside of the haunted house was quite large with three doors upon entry. The other two doors were locked with chains, leaving only one door that
seemed to open.
However, the rusty iron door was decrepit, with faded bloodstains contrasting against the rust stains. Even before entering the door, a strong smell of medicine wafted out.
Inside the door was a corridor. The flimsy wallpaper on the walls left behind hysterical scratch marks and bloody writing. Various hospital rooms lined the corridor, with shapes moving within them, as if something was lurking inside..
