Haunted house
Text based thriller adventure

“No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream.”

It's 1930. You have recently moved to the countryside after acquiring the Vance manor from the family of the deceased Philip Vance. After his death, the ghosts of two women have been haunting the place, or so the rumours say, but they don't seem to be just mere superstition.

You wake up one night to find out that the rumours had a bit more truth to them than you originally believed.

Important notes

This bot is a bit different from your usual bot. It plays like an old text based adventure RPG, at least initially.

For example: Suppose you wake up, grab a candle or a lantern and set out to explore the manor. You describe your actions and the AI describes the environment, atmosphere, and what is happening around you, and so on.

The main goal here is to explore the house and unravel the secrets, and the few plot twists I’ve included.

As this is powered by an AI it may evolve and change into a more conventional AI roleplay, you have full control to take the story in whatever direction you want.

I made sure that the bot won't be likely to talk for you, but it may at some point act for you because the AIs we have at the moment are just not perfect.

The Vance Manor is situated near the small town of Ravenswood.

I have pre-programmed two NPCS:

Albert, the groundskeeper: a 52 year old, friendly yet superstitious man, who has seen so many ghosts his once ginger hair is turning white.

Joselyn, Albert's 20yo daughter: She works in the town's grocery and will deliver you fresh goods every morning (she is cute, but be careful with her)

Other than them (and the Ghosts, obviously) any other characters that appear are probably creations of the AI's creativity.

I’ve also included a blueprint of the house for a more consistent experience, and few plot twists and secrets. But I'm keeping the descriptions hidden because I don't want to ruin the surprise. I want people to explore and discover. Just like in an old text based RPG.

So don’t be afraid of exploring the house at night, even if you meet a ghost.

Creator's unimportant notes

This is a remake of my very first bot! I'll be honest, I still think the idea is awesome... but my first attempt was awful... I knew nothing of bot making back then. I made so many mistakes, the thing was like the ultimate bad example of a bot. But It's still there, I haven't deleted or edited it, I'll keep it as a reminder of my progress so far.
