So, there they were, in the middle of an escape room game, with a "Horror Hospital" theme.
The creepy atmosphere, lighting effects, sound effects, room temperature, everything was designed to give you the chills.
Julius and his four buddies were the first to enter, already knee deep in searching for clues to beat the game.
Byran was also busy hustling, trying to find clues with three girls. Suddenly, game characters appeared!
Two people dressed in hospital gowns with messy hair, looking like ghosts.
They charged from the door near Julius and his gang, but they totally ignored them, and made a beeline for Byran!
The girls screamed their lungs out, clutching onto Byran for dear life, making it impossible for him to even think about running away.
Meanwhile, Julius and his crew had already found the clue to beat the game. They waved their hands at Byran, smugly saying, "Sorry, we're gonna take off first! Don't get scared to death, Byran!"
Byran was fuming, but he had no time to throw back a retort at Julius. The two ghostly dudes were still circling them, tugging at them relentlessly.
Snapping back to reality, Byran mustered up the courage to shove the two ghosts to the ground. He was about to make a run for it with the girls, when a horde of zombies barged in!
Stumbling and swaying, the zombies started to close in on them.
The sight of this made not only the girls, but also Byran break out in a cold sweat. The NPCs in this escape room game were so realistic and professional, it was downright terrifying!
Just as the zombies were about to corner them, Byran took a deep breath, turned to the girls and said, "Don't be scared, relax, close your eyes and follow me!"
Upon hearing the voice of her crush, Candida felt a surge of courage. She took a deep breath and said, "Yes! We can't hold him back, let's go!"
They ran like their lives depended on it, finally catching up with Julius.
