OCTOBER 31 — CASE FILE 31 | CASE CLOSED
THE LIBRARY — STACK 6
Investigators follow the sound behind a row of old reference books.
A concealed door is discovered in the wall.
It opens.
And out walks Dr. Willa B. Well, very much alive, very annoyed, and surrounded by enough books to keep her occupied for days.
While attempting to verify the questionable health information Hazel had shared, Dr. Well discovered an old archive hidden behind the Library shelves. The door closed behind her and jammed, trapping her inside.
Hazel did not intentionally harm Dr. Well. But the unreliable online claim she shared started the chain of events that led Dr. Well to the Library.
