She didn't want to spook anyone- or worse, draw a crowd.
The voices cfrom two female students walking side by side down the corridor, pointing at a certain classroom.
"No way... I heard that place used to be an old supply room. People say it's haunted..." One of the girls widened her eyes and hugged her shoulders instinctively.
"So creepy?" The other girl sucked in a sharp breath, shrinking her neck.
Fear flashed across both their faces, and without another word, they bolted downstairs in sync.
Jean stepped out from behind the wall. Haunted? There were ghost stories about this building? She turned and looked toward the room they had just been whispering about-the supply room. From the outside, it did look a bit more run-down than the other classrooms.

Jean quickly walked toward the supply room. She reached the door and turned the handle- It was locked.
She hesitated for a moment, then knocked.
If Ludwig really was inside, maybe he'd hear it.
She knocked gently.
This was the arts building, after all; she didn't want to make too much noise and draw attention.

Jean gripped the key tightly, now more certain than ever that Ludwig was hiding in this supply room.
She slid the key into the lock and turned it- The door opened.
Jean stepped inside right away and closed the door behind her.
The room was filled with old, discarded equipment-brokem planos, damaged plaster statues, dusty wooden easels... Everything inside seemed to be covered with a thick coat of dust.
The whole place...
Looked like the perfect set for a horror movie-skind of haunted school special. Jean shook her head with a chuckle. No wonder there were ghost rumors floating around.
It did look like a horror movie set.
Especially those plaster statues-at first glance, they were seriously creepy.
Jean narrowed her eyes and walked straight toward them-
She stopped in front of the statues, but her gaze wasn't on them. She sn't was staring past them-at the wall behind. Jean blinked, like she had just noticed/something.
