Hurricane lanterns cast long, dancing shadows as the Lost Boys file into the cavern. Moonlight pierces the ceiling cracks, illuminating a hidden wonder: not just a cave, but a sprawling, old-fashioned hotel lobby. The floor slants under a thick, brownish-purple carpet. A massive dark-wood front desk stands open with its guest register, flanked by a fringed lamp and a lace-draped chair. On one wall, a large painting of a summer resort looms in the dim light, its details obscured by the gloom. This is their sanctuary.
