Ace and Joseph entered the hotel at around 8 P.M., along with their guide, Cade. Their job was to see if stories about the hauntings were true or simply legend. and for that, they'd stay and explore the hotel from 8 P.M. until 8 A.M. Let's hope they survive.
They entered one room when Ace froze in his tracks. "Did you hear that?" Sneaking out into the hallway, he peeked into the next room.
PEF #1: Pass 1d6.
"What is it?" Joseph asked, his rifle entering the hallway before him.
Eyes peering left to right, Ace shrugged. "I guess just my imagination. I could have sworn-"
PEF #2: Pass 1d6.
"Did you hear that?"
Cade entered the room, pistol shifting as he glanced around. "I heard that too. Something's here, just not sure it's a ghost."
"It's like the walls have eyes that watch our every move," Joseph said with a shudder.
Backing out into the hallway, Ace nodded. "That wasn't the wind. I thought I heard talking."
PEF #3: Pass 2d6; 4 Opponents total.
Ace again entered the room and paused as he thought he heard movement all around them.
PEF resolves as ghosts. Ghosts act first and split into two groups.
"I don't see anything now," Ace said.
Just then, Cade and Joseph spun around to find a spectral being staring at them. Cade froze in his tracks (gains Insanity point) while Joseph fired his rifle. To their surprise, the creature disappeared into the room, and the two men gave chase.
Ace, meanwhile, encountered three ghosts in one bedroom. He opened fire, but suddenly, all three shrieked, and Ace stumbled back, head spinning. (2 Insanity Points gained.)
11 P.M.
Cade and Joseph chased the ghost through the hallway, with Joseph getting a few shots off. Finally corning it in a bedroom, Joseph slowly entered. He fired but missed, and suddenly, the walls begain wailing at him.
Seeing his friend in pain, Cade pointed his pistol and fired. Hearing a thunk, he thought, 'I got you, so son of a-'
Then he saw Joseph hit the ground (OOF) and he realized his horrible mistake. Before he could check on his friend, the ghost lunged forward, and Cade bolted for the hallway.
Cade found Ace in a nearby room, collapsed in the corner (4 Insanity Points, but saved by Star Power). Helping Ace to his feet, the two took off down another hallway.
(At this point, only the heroes activated for three turns.)
2 A.M
As the ghosts gave chase, Ace and Cade opened fire, driving the beings off. They continued circling from room to room, and both were having problems focusing.
5 A.M.
However, the spectral presence was begging to take its toll, and not long after, Cade collapsed unconscious. (OOF. Ace survived again thanks to Star Power, but he was down to 3d6.)
Finding Joseph, he did his best to tend to the man's wounds (Passed 1d6 on Recovery table), before taking up his rifle and continuing on his way.
6 A.M.
Just have to last two more hours, Ace thought. Spotting a shrieking shadow, he fired, and it vanished, but then he heard howling from the room next to him. He ducked just as a ghost flew over his head and put his back to the wall as a third approached.
Wait, he thought, is my back glued to this wall? He pulled himself away, but now the lights were screaming at him, the paint was taunting him, his own gun even cackled when he tried to pull the trigger. (Gained another Insanity point for 5 total.)
Dropping the weapon, he fell to his knees and covered his face in his hands. He tried shaking his head, but it did no good. (Star Power failed).
Collapsing on the floor, he opened his eyes to find three hideous specters watching him with glee. And the last thing he heard was their high-pitch cackles.
Ace, Cade, and Joseph were never seen again. Their bodies were never found. And no one ever entered the hotel at night again, until its location was long forgotten.
Does Death's Kiss Hotel exist today? Possibly. It could even be one you stay in next. But when the sun goes down, just keep reminding yourself that's possibly all a myth.
Unless of course, the walls really are watching you right now!
