The lobby of Waverly Hills was dark, save for the flashlight beams sweeping the place as Dan and Aiden entered the building. Ayana and Mifa stopped inside the lobby at the stairwell just as Ramon stepped over to them. They surveyed the situation silently for a moment as the two other members of the paranormal group came in with cases of equipment.
"Woah," said Aiden as the flashlight beam cut across the area of the dusty lobby where the ritual had taken place. "What the hell is that?"
"What?" Dan asked as he turned around suddenly, seeming a little jumpy tonight. But then, given the tension that all the spirits in the building were feeling, Mifa wasn't surprised that maybe the ghost hunters would be picking up on it too.
"Look at this," Aiden said. He hunkered down and touched the groove of the circle. "Dude... I think this is blood."
