Chapter 6: The Flight

You turn and run, your footsteps echoing in the empty hallway. The portraits on the walls seem to sneer at your cowardice. As you reach the elevator, you hear the sound of footsteps behind you. You press the button frantically, but the elevator seems to take an eternity to arrive.

Explore the basement and try to find another way out?

Stay in the elevator and hope it will take you back up?
