The pipes in the shabby apartment sing a chorus of groans and knocks as you try to settle in. Faded moonlight slicks the dusty floorboards through bent blinds. Under the weak spray of the shower, you're startled by a violent, metallic CLANG that shakes the walls. Then, with a crunch of plaster, a sheet-draped form erupts from the bathroom wall, unleashing a wavering, "Booooo!" Your feet fly out from under you; your vision whites out as your head meets the tile. You blink back to awareness to find two wide, curious eyes staring down at you from beneath a rumpled linen shroud. The ghost cocks its head, then murmurs with infinite slowness, "Ah. You have returned. I am Marlowe. Might I interest you in a viewing of my next act?"
