Authors Note: This chapter is so long, that I had to break it into three different chapters.

Case Report File 2

Upon my arrival at the manor gates, I stepped from my vehicle into a large puddle born from the chilly, autumn rain. A quick flash of gold near a storm drain caught my attention, and I reached down to collect a locket that once that once belonged to a women whose spirit was freed from this awful place by my friend. Just then, the locket's owner and manor's namesake appeared before me and delivered a warning that caused the fur on my arms to rise!

After some confusion on why I was here instead of my friend, Emma's ghost advised me to leave Blackpool before I meet her fate. Upon refusing, she offered to follow and assist me by altering the appearance of objects that might aid in my investigation. After some hesitation, I paused, looked around, and finally collected the objects she effected. True to her word, Emma's locket suddenly burst open with a blast of ghostly energy drawing my attention to a nearby lantern! When I looked again she was gone.

"You're not the detective." Emma said when she saw that the person that she was talking to was not the detective from before.

"No. I'm not her." Tech said, pulling the hood of his raincoat over his head. "I'm her back-up when she has to take a break for medical reasons and you must be Miss Ravenhearst. I'm Tech Chiryō-shi. What is it that you are trying to tell me Miss Ravenhearst?"

"My soul is now free." Emma said. "But I fear that you're in great danger, all because you have taken your friend's place, because she has done so much to help me and the others, we now promise to follow and assist you."

Tech sighed as he figured out how the locket worked and Emma left. "Great." He said. "Someone laid a trap here for my friend and I just walked head first into it." He sighed again and pulled out some headache relief pills from the field medical kit he always carried with him.

"How can this get any worse..."

Tech now wanted to bash his head against something. He had headed for the lighthouse that he could see from where he was standing by the gate and since the gate was not opened, he had been forced to look around the grounds for a way in.

This had led to another encounter with a ghost, this time it was Rose Somerset, the second spirit that his friend had freed from this awful place.

Rose was also confused of the fact that Tech was here instead of the detective that had freed her, but after a quick explanation she was soon doing the same thing as Emma, warning him.

"Please." Rose said, after Tech had explained why he was here instead of the Master Detective. "Heed our warnings, Detective.

Turn back while you still can."

Rose disappeared and Tech had the perfect chance to bash his head in for a few minutes before he could continue on his way, solving more puzzles and finding a way to use his car to open the gates, although, he was freaked out by the sign crashing through his windscreen.

Case Report File 3

The creepiness of this place is more then I expected it to be. A small, dilapidated cottage once inhabited by the son of my friend's nemesis, Charles, barely remains standing. It was here that she was abducted by Charles and his son, Victor, before she thwarted their attempts to imprison the souls of two little girls, and their mother inside caves beneath the manor.

A small box secured with a custom lock appears to be a new addition, but it's owner and contents will presently remain a mystery until I can find a way to get it unlocked.

Tech's Journal Entry 2

This place is so wrong on so many levels, the finding of objects and solving puzzles, that I'm okay with, but ghosts?!

At least they're trying to help me. Emma's locket will be a great aid in finding objects that may help me in this investigation.

It's the reason why they showed themselves to me that worries me the most, they keep on trying to tell me to escape while I have a change, but that decision was taken away from me the moment I decided to take on this case.

And since Chaos is sick at the moment, it's my job to solve this mystery or to gather enough information, that when she gets better enough to come down here, that it will be easier for her to solve this case.

I guess I should write down important notes on each ghost I come across as I investigate this place.

Emma Ravenhearst

It seems fitting that my time at Ravenhearst Manor begins with a meeting with the Manor's namesake, the first spirit my friend freed when she came here for the first time and the first encounter she had on her second visit.

Miss Ravenhearst was the first one to tell me to leave and I have the feeling that this will not be the last time that I'll receive this warning.

Rose Somerset

The second spirit my friend encountered and freed here, during her second visit here and the second spirit that tried to make me leave.

I have a feeling that this will not be the only time that I'll see Miss Somerset.

Both of them was expecting my friend and expressed confusion when they saw me, which means a theory I developed after meeting Miss Ravenhearst might be coming true.

Did somebody set up a trap here for my friend?

And if I'm right about this...

Does this mean that I've triggered the trap and taken her place?

Yes, it looks like Ravenhearst is pissing Tech off, he's taken a huge step out of his comfort zone and it's too late for him to go back into it.
