Lauren opened the door. There was a room inside, and there was another door at the other end of the room.

Therefore, Lauren inferred that when she opened the other door, they would arrive at the next room.

Each room should have a different ghost.

There was a wardrobe and a bed in this room. On the bed, there was only a blanket. It did not bulge, so it looked like there was nothing in it.

They walked to the other door and took a look. There was a note on the door that said, “To open this door, please find the key.”

Lauren tried to twist the doorknob, but it would not open.

She turned around and said, “We should be looking for the key in this room.”

“What kind of haunted house is this? It’s obviously an escape room, and we’re even playing with ghosts.”

Ever since Quinn entered the room, he had not stopped talking. He was either screaming or ridiculing the others.

“I’ll do it,” Bryce volunteered.

He usually loved escape rooms.

Because of the 3D glasses, everything became very realistic. Bryce fumbled his way to the bed and picked up a corner of the blanket.

Quinn hid behind Franklin, not daring to look.

Bryce did not hesitate at all and directly lifted the blanket.

“Ah!!”

Quinn’s scream made Franklin feel like his ears were going deaf.

A long-haired woman was on the bed. This woman’s eyes, nose and mouth were all bleeding. Her eyes did not have pupils, only left with the white of the eye. Her appearance was indeed quite frightening.

After the quilt was lifted, the female ghost bounced up.

Lauren had sharp eyes. With one glance, she saw that there was a rope on the female ghost’s wrist. On the rope was the key.

“The key is in the hands of the female ghost!”

As this female ghost was a 3D image, she could fly and float.

With the 3D glasses, they could see that the female ghost was suspended in the air above them, floating straight towards them. Meanwhile, the blood on her face continued to drip down.

As she flew, the female ghost was laughing. Her laughter was shrill and ear-piercing.

Although it was fake, the scene was very vivid at that moment. Even Bryce could not help but take a step back.

As she watched the female ghost fly towards her, for a moment, Lauren subconsciously wanted to take out a talisman.

Could this be the legendary occupational disease?

In the end, she managed to control herself and repeatedly told herself that this was just a game.

Lauren pulled Franklin’s pants.

“Franklin, carry me.”

Franklin picked up Lauren. Just as the female ghost flew past her, Lauren quickly grabbed the key.

“I have the key!”

The moment Lauren grabbed the key, the female ghost disappeared. The room returned to silence, leaving behind a strange empty bed.

They used the key to open the door and entered the next room.

As Bryce did not successfully completed the mission in the previous room, he volunteered to continue the challenge in this room.

This room looked like a study. There were many bookshelves and a very wide desk.

“According to past experience, these ghosts must be hidden in one of the cabinets.”

So, Bryce went to search through the cabinets.

Mr. Hayes and Ben were only here to experience it. During this time, they stood in the corner and watched the group of children playing.

“There’s nothing. How strange!”

Bryce did not find anything, so he closed the cabinets.

Suddenly, he cried out in pain.

Franklin asked, “Bryce, what’s wrong?”

After putting on the 3D glasses, everyone’s appearance was replaced by a virtual character. They only know the other party’s location, but they did not know what had happened to the other party.

This made the game even more difficult and exciting. If they could not see who their companions were, their fear would definitely increase.

Bryce shook his head and realized that the others could not see.

“I’m fine. It’s just a nail that scratched my hand. It seems to be bleeding a little.”

Lauren had a sharp nose and she could indeed smell the blood.

“Are you alright?”

“It’s nothing serious. It’s just a few drops of blood.”

Then, Bryce walked to the desk and began to study the things in front of the desk.

“Hey, there’s a box here.”

Franklin and Lauren went over to take a look.

As Quinn was scared, Ben, Mr. Hayes and he had become the “corner trio”.

“What’s in this box?”

Bryce opened the box.

However, Franklin and Lauren were a little confused. What box was Bryce talking about?

They did not see any box on the desk from their 3D glasses. There were only some books and papers..
