You continue with the tour, making sure to make a mental note about the secret rooms the mansion might have. Ann then takes you to the ballroom and tells a story of dancing ghosts straight out of a ride from a certain theme park. From there you go to the eastern wing. Though the area fits the grand elegance of the first part of the mansion, it feels noticeably less old. Ann ushers you past the more sterile but modern and efficient kitchen and to a spot near the back.
"As I said before, this freezer was believed to be a storehouse during the prohibition, but converted into a walk-in freezer. Even before the refrigeration was installed the room had had a cold, deathly chill. Some say you can still hear the clinking of glass and the thumping of kegs being moved. Others say that there are even people who will call out to you. If they call you by name, be sure to run."
She then unlatches the freezer and you shine a flashlight in. It's nothing but bare metal panel walls with a machine high in the corner with fans on it and a pipe leading into the floor. There isn't any food. There isn't even any shelving units.
You ask if we can look inside.
"I mean, if you want." She says, leaning on the wall near the door. "I hate going in there. Reminds me of the freezer from my job."
Seshat doesn't seem that keen on entering either, which is good because you would not like to be put into a position to be locked in. You, Zul, and Tamako walk around the square steel box. You take a quick look at the refrigeration unit, but it's not like you know much about that kind of thing anyway. It's not making any noise and the fans aren't moving so it's probably off. Tamako quickly gets bored and starts knocking on the walls like a drum, and it's at that point you decide it's best to move on.
As Ann she latches the fridge close you lean over to Zul to see if she found or sensed anything.
"...I'm pretty sure there was a fake wall. One of the panels Tamako was knocking on sounded oddly hollow." Zul says, thinking to herself.
Ann takes you aside and says in a low voice, "Anyway, we could hit the second floor back in the main building if you'd like. Just a few of the doors up there. You know, the master bedroom and stuff. We went a bit long though, probably because I passed out. Maybe I should go to the hospital, ah-ha. You want to keep going? I don't wanna keep up the kid on a school night unless you are okay with it."
