Behold this Key – the secret key to the Locked Reading Room of the Manor. The room houses the darkest secrets of its grotesque inhabitants, chronicled over centuries on its musty shelves. It’s the duty of each Lord of the Manor to ensure this room remains locked, for great misfortune awaits the unsuspecting guest who might stumble upon it. Yet, these ancient mysteries have a life of their own, ensnaring more souls into practices that feed their thirst to spread their morbid and depraved ways.
The sentinel of the secrets will unlock the room, no matter how securely it’s been fastened. Each night, the Key turns and the doors swing open at sunrise, luring another innocent soul into the labyrinth of its wicked rituals. They are ultimately drawn into the vortex of what we mortals naively call a living Hell.
So routine has become this ritual of the locked room being opened by the ghostly Keeper of the Key, that the Key now has its own life. It will turn even when not in the lock, regardless of where or when.
The narrator holds up a Key for his captivated audience to examine. It appears to be an ordinary, lifeless Key – none would attribute to it the occult powers they are about to witness. For when the narrator places the Key across his hand and whispers an invocation, behold, the Key turns mysteriously of its own accord.
Yet, there is always a skeptic in the crowd of eager believers. This skeptic may suspect the narrator of deception, perhaps manipulating the Key in some unseen or unknown ways. To dispel these doubts, the skeptic is invited to place the Key across his own hand. The narrator holds it to transfer the ectoplasm, the very essence that allows the Keeper to manifest his power. And behold – the Key turns once more, defying reason, understanding, and belief!
