funeral.

The Grand Stairwell

There are 111 steps to get all the way to the top of the
tower, and each step creaks under the weight of any-
one walking. There are several landings and small
alcoves that may contain interesting artifacts such as:
a small skull with a demonic symbol carved into it
which Cassidy may recognize, a ceramic lamb whose
eyes have been replaced with tangled, red Christmas
lights, one of Popper Polly’s signature hot pink car-
abiners, and a family bible inscribed with the Reyes
family tree – although Desi’s name has been violently
scratched out. The banisters on a landing halfway up
are blackened and there is a lingering smell of smoke,
although there is no other signs of fire. This is where

On the floor lies a crumpled note filled with
deranged poetry about love for a heavenly creature.
Anyone reading this to themselves will have vivid
memories of a love they have not yet experienced,
and reading it aloud causes all within earshot to
drop whatever they are doing and relive the last
time they felt truly, deeply loved. All are left with a
deep melancholy for several minutes afterwards.

The Drawing Room

At one time this was the entertainment hub of
the house. There is a grand piano in the alcove
created by a bow window, its stained glass now
broken and lying on the floor, and bits of broken
furniture stick out from the trash gathered along
the sides of the room. Another fireplace faces the

“Ardenter amo” (Ardently Love), and features an
