Adrian never had any intention of abandoning the building that used to be a nursing home. The fact that right now Green Pines House was to some degree considered a biohazard and its structural integrity left too many doubts, downgrading its value, only made Adrian even more interested.
After screwing his brothers over, the land and the building were sold out at a discounted price a year after their closure. A company decided to buy it; that company later re-sold the property to a subsidiary of Adrian Naval Empire, who coincidentally had a good contact in the Agriculture Ministry, which also handled rural land development.
A year later, after buying the land, Adrian hired an architect and a demolition team. The place was torn apart, and the dangerous materials were ignored after some bribes were handed to the right people. Who knew where all that asbestos and lead would end up? However, the demolition crew didn't have a fun time. The building had many metal structures inside its walls. They would have finished a lot sooner, but the architect Adrian hired was obsessive with the building's foundations.
"Oh, come on, Manuel, don't you guys say that if it ain't broken, don't fix it?" The foreman of the demolition team was not happy with the architect's idea of removing the foundations of the building in their entirety.
"That saying comes from engineers, not architects." Answered Manuel. "And I want those foundations removed; that William guy was mentally challenged; his designs are a mess; there are a lot of weird choices in his building's after nineteen fifty-five; dig it all up; I don't trust in those foundations."
Manuel could not even imagine why Willy filled the walls with a lot of metal parts, some of which were even mobile. There didn't seem to be a function for them. It seemed like Willy got his hands on a bunch of used metal and decided to just stuff all of it into the building's walls to give strength to the structure. However, it didn't serve that purpose; actually, all that loose metal compromised the building's integrity to some degree.
An hour later, after the heavy machines started digging the building's foundations, the floor cracked and a hidden underground space was discovered. The collapsing walls made a lot more noise than anyone would expect. The newly discovered room had no exit or entrance; along its walls, there were a lot more of those weird metal structures.
"By god, what the hell was that guy thinking?" Said the foreman.
"I have no idea; he was probably insane. Just dig everything up; I don't want anything of this building left. Let's start from zero." Answered Manuel, he would make it his priority that all of William Argent Palau's works were examined carefully and, if possible, demolished.
All the men working in there felt a bit uncomfortable during the rest of the day. They were getting goosebumps for no reason.
Unbeknownst to them, a mass of distorted souls had been freed from its prison. Elizabeth was still holding in her soul hundreds of deformed, angry, crazy, and tortured souls. Thanks to the time the munchers spent hiding inside her, she learned many things from them. The munchers had some memories they obtained from their time inside Willy; it was a shame that her own insanity didn't allow her to understand all of them. However, her hatred towards Willy and the hatred of hundreds of souls allowed them to focus on one thing. Willy's location. They knew what his plan was, and the other ghosts knew the location of the Atocha Hospital. As soon as the sun went down and the light stopped hurting, a giant, distorted blob of growing body parts ran in a straight line, all united under an intense hatred and desire for vengeance.
