WHO: All kidnapped and sleeping passengers
WHAT: Baby, you’re a haunted house.
WHERE: Murdoch Tower.
WHEN: Now until Oct. 31.
WARNINGS: Add these to your comment subject lines as needed! And if you die in this dream, it doesn’t count, you’ll just wake up at the end with the rest of the gang. c:
CW: Brief reference to suicide below.
All things considered, Murdoch Tower isn’t the worst place to call home. Sure, it’s got its fair share of idiosyncrasies like any other other building; floors creak, pipes rattle, faint noises waft into the walls of homes from places unknown. And there are rumors, of course, that it’s haunted. People love a good brush with the supernatural, right? But they’re just stories - no one has ever documented any true paranormal phenomena. Local legend has it that a terrible accident left a few unlucky construction workers buried alive in the concrete of the walls many years ago, but you won’t find any record of such a mishap in any of the City’s libraries or historical records.
The one thing that is documented fact is that the building’s original owner, Jake Murdoch, committed suicide in the penthouse apartment shortly after construction was completed. A bizarre message was left behind for the staff to find, hastily scrawled instructions of some kind involving an elevator, written on the wall in Mr. Murdoch’s own blood. Since then, the penthouse has been sealed off to the other tenants, who are instructed upon move-in that the topmost floor is strictly off limits. Still, rumors are passed between tenants about a secret elevator into the penthouse that can only be accessed by following the misfortunate owner’s dying missive, though obviously, no one has ever succeeded in finding this hidden entrance.
After all - one cannot find what doesn’t exist, right?
