<<if $enteredLobby===0>>\ The front entrance to the school is unlocked. You have entered the lobby. <<set $enteredLobby=1>>\ <<elseif $enteredLobby===1>>\ You are back in the lobby. <</if>>\ It is dark and eerily quiet in here. The flashlight on your phone reveals a recruitment poster for St. Comba's Academy’s drama club. The corridor leads to the [[west|West Corridor]] and [[east|East Corridor]] sides of the building. <<if $lobbyDetected===0>>\ Scan with your [[EMF Reader|LobbyInv]]. <<else>>\ The EMF signal comes from the east side. <</if>>\

<<set $enteredLobby=0>> <<set $lobbyDetected=0>> <<set $enteredCloset=0>> <<set $AuditoriumDetected=0>> <<set $hasSkull=0>> <<cacheaudio "cat" "aud/cat.mp3">> <<cacheaudio "bone" "aud/bone.mp3">> <<cacheaudio "bgm" "aud/ambience.mp3">> <<cacheaudio "slowbeep" "aud/beeping-slow.mp3">> <<cacheaudio "fastbeep" "aud/beeping-fast.mp3">>

The auditorium has been setup for a play before the school was shut down, with rows of chairs facing the central stage. Return to the [[corridor|East Corridor]]. <<if $AuditoriumDetected===0>>\ Scan with your [[EMF Reader|AuditoriumInv]]. <</if>>\

You see shelves of scientific equipment covered in dust and rust. <<if $hasSkull===0>>\ There is also a life-size model skeleton in the corner. Take the [[skull|TakeSkull]]. <<else>>\ There is a model skeleton with a missing skull. <</if>>\ Return to the [[corridor|West Corridor]].

This corridor leads to the [[Science Lab]] and some empty classrooms. Go back to the <<if $AuditoriumDetected===0>>[[Lobby]]<<else>>[[Lobby|Lobby B]]<</if>>.

From this corridor, you can access the [[Auditorium]] and the [[Janitor's Closet]]. Debris has blocked off the rest of the hallway. Go back to the [[Lobby]].

<<set $lobbyDetected=1>>\ <<audio "slowbeep" play>>\ You detect a signal coming from the east side of the building. Head [[east|East Corridor]].

<<if $enteredCloset===0>>\ <<audio "cat" play>>\ You are startled by a blur that moves out of the closet. It turns out to be a cat, and they make their way towards the auditorium. <<set $enteredCloset=1>>\ <<elseif $enteredCloset===1>>\ The janitor closet is empty. <</if>>\ Return to the [[corridor|East Corridor]].

<<set $AuditoriumDetected=1>>\ <<audio "fastbeep" play>>\ Your EMF Reader goes wild from the reading. "Words, words, words." The ghost of a student manifests on the stage in the costume of a Danish prince. "Hmm... a proper actor reads his lines while holding a skull." She notices you. "Can I borrow your skull?" <<if $hasSkull===1>>\ [[Hand her the skull.|Ending]] <<else>>\ You managed to record this on your phone, and you can upload the footage online if you make it out alive. [[Run|Lobby B]] before she catches you. <</if>>\

"Thank you!" The ghost takes the skull. She returns to the stage and recites her lines once again. "To be or not to be..." You are free to leave the school. You return home and upload the recordings of tonight's ghost hunting. When you wake up in the morning, there are thousands of likes and upvotes. You have become the envy of the ghost hunting community. !!THE END

You are back in the lobby. The entrance is sealed shut by a supernatural force. Head [[west|West Corridor]]. <<if $hasSkull===0>>\ You shouldn't go back to the east corridor, unless you want to be killed by the ghost. <<else>>\ You now have the item to appease the ghost. Return to the [[Auditorium|AuditoriumB]]. <</if>>

<<audio "bone" play>>\ <<set $hasSkull=1>>\ <<if $AuditoriumDetected===1>>\ This skull would probably do. <<else>>\ You are urged by a morbid compulsion to remove the skull from the skeleton. <</if>>\ Return to the [[corridor|West Corridor]].
