WINDOW & RADIO

Though not quite the same, the antique radio that stands before a broken window is similar to a replica you used to own. This one, however, is obviously an authentic original. It’s what was called a “floor radio” or “console radio”.

EXAMINE THE RADIO

As you lean in to get a closer look at the radio, you discover the three dials on the front are glowing with an eerie, pale shine, each dial emitting a different color, despite the fact that there is obviously no power running to the antique. From left to right, the dials read, “VOLUME”, “STATION”, and “WAVE”. You can set them here:

The radio comes to life as an eerie song crackles through the static, riding the radio waves of a signal sent long ago. You recognize the song as the early 1900s hit, “Till We Meet Again”.

The radio sputters, struggling to interpret the radio waves that have been drug across time to carry a message to the present.

APPROACH THE WINDOW

You step past the eerie radio, approaching the broken window. Rolling thunder and crackling lightning are an almost musical accompaniment to the pounding rain. If memory serves you, the weather was supposed to have been much like this in the final moments of the McDermott House victims. It’s enough to give even you a chill. You try your best to shrug off the sense of foreboding and focus on the task at hand. You lean closer to the window to peer outside. It’s hard to see anything through the heavy rain and dense night, but with the occasional lightning flash you can make out what looks like an overgrown courtyard.
