Dark Secrets

As you move toward the passage you are cursing yourself under your breath for having gotten yourself into this mess. The passage leads into a very narrow staircase that spirals down. You begin to walk down the steps slowly making the least amount of noise possible. The candles mounted on the stone walls flicker constantly casting shadows all around.

After what seems like an eternity, you reach the bottom of the staircase. There is an old wooden door with a skeleton keyhole.

"Might as well go in." You mutter amazed at your sudden courage. Just as you are about to enter you hear the passage at the top of the stairs beggining to slowly slide shut!
