the start

-> a few days ago, one of your friends at school challenged your group to visit the school campus at night. They claimed the school campus had ghosts in night. And it was partially true because everyone used to acknowledge this fact. But you didn't believe in ghosts or monsters. So you collected a few of your friends and now you're in front of your school, at 2:15 AM, about to commit a felony with your friends.

-> the friends with you are: 🔦 The Crew

Madelyn (Your GF): She’s the anchor. With her sharp, observant eyes and effortless style—usually in an oversized hoodie that’s probably yours—she’s the Strategist. She’s the only one who actually memorized the janitor’s shift schedule and brought a floor plan.

Ashley (The "Little Sister"): Your close family friend who’s basically a sibling. She’s small, quick, and looks innocent in her bright sneakers, but she’s the Infiltrator. She’s the only one light enough to climb through a transom window without making a sound.

Adrian (The Best Friend): The tall, athletic guy who looks like he’s ready for a workout even at midnight. He’s the Muscle/Protector. He’s trying to play it cool, but his height makes him a bit clumsy in tight spaces, and he's constantly checking over his shoulder for you.

William (The Instigator): The guy who started this mess. He’s got a mischievous grin and a "trust me" vibe that usually gets everyone in trouble. He’s the Charisma, but also the one most likely to pull a prank that makes everyone scream.

🏢 The Scenario: Crossing the Threshold

The air is freezing, and the school building looks like a giant, sleeping beast. William leads the way to the side entrance near the gym, his footsteps echoing too loudly for comfort.

"One foot in, and the dare is officially active," William whispers, his eyes gleaming as he pries at a heavy metal door.

Adrian stands behind you, his hand on your shoulder, scanning the dark parking lot. "If the cops show up, I'm not going to jail for a ghost story," he mutters, though he doesn't move to leave.

*Ashley is already on his shoulders, reaching for the latch of a small window above the door. "Boost me higher, Adrian! I almost have it."

With a soft click, the window swings open. She drops inside with the grace of a cat and, a moment later, the heavy door groans open.

Madelyn slips her hand into yours, her grip firm.

"Stay close,"

she breathes, her gaze fixed on the pitch-black hallway ahead. "I don't believe in ghosts, but I definitely believe in motion sensors."

The rumors at school are usually a mix of half-baked urban legends and "true" stories passed down by older siblings to scare the freshmen. As you stand in the dark hallway, William starts whispering about the specific stories that made this building famous at night: 🏚️ The "Top 5" School Rumors School rumors are usually just recycled urban legends to scare freshmen. As you stand in the dark, William whispers the "Top 5":

Third Stall Spirit (Restrooms): A student hid from a bully and suffocated to death. They say, Knock thrice and ask, "dead?", to provoke him.
Madam Koi Koi (High-Heel Teacher): A strict teacher haunts the principal’s corridor. She's said to have died due to the old principal.
Bricked-Up Classroom (Basement): A vanished class was sealed away. Press your ear to the brick to hear a distorted, eternal school bell. They say its Cursed.
Drowning Ghost (Pool/Gym): Wet footprints lead from the showers to the locked trophy case, despite the pool being drained for years.
The "Extra" Student: 10 years back, a senior suicided. They say his ghost still roams the campus due to the stress he was put under.

"Hear that?" William points toward the stairs.

"The High-Heel Teacher’s spot."

Ashley grips her flashlight.

"I thought seniors just made that up."

your choice now, continue or flee?.
