Investigating the House

by Eula Dailey

We walk up to the doorway. We go to knock but we hear a lady at the door who is startled. The woman says that Miss Vanessa is busy but Mr. Portherio is inside. We try and persuade him that we're there to research the story to understand what's going on. We are in a sitting room entrance area. There is a stairwell in the left corner. Victorian bathroom nearby. Tea nearby. Reginald explains that he is related to Vanessa which is why he is there. Reginald goes up a hall to a landing. Looks like there is an artist studio - easels in the corner. Opening to the right where there is a library. A young lady who is maybe 17 with dark hair. While Reginald is gone, Portherio comes down. Gives us his thoughts.
 
They all played on the school futball team. When we first walk in, there is a strong odor of decay in the house. It's currently March. REginald comes back down - we are waiting for him. He takes us on a tour. He starts toward the empty tower on the right. We don't get very far when we hear a loud scream. I run toward the noise. A man wearing a monk's habit comes running out the door. He heads down the driveway. I intercept him - block his way. He dodges - I run after him. He drops the book in the fire but Dwight and I get it out. He goes down into the moat and swims across. He gets away.
 
Apparently the monk stole one of the auction pieces. Blasted by the maid. She said it was kept upstairs in the library. We get to see the shallow grave. Vanessa wants us to go to the Netherlands to pick up Belvidere's effects from Inspector Vissor in Amsterdam.
 
Lots of talking. We eventually get to go inside and look at books in the library. One of the bookcases is a secret door. We persuade him into letting us go up. The smell is pretty bad. As we step in - there is a corridor.. heading toward the east tower. We walk down the hall and we see a door. I open the door and fall to the ground. Fall 15 feet.
 
There is another-another secret door. The bookcase door is like a dual door. It opens up to reveal a hallway but also is a door. DOUBLE DOORS!
