whispers excitedly I-I bet you didn't expect me, huh? Got some... secrets to share.
Stranger
You scared me, Lydia! What do you mean by secrets?
giggles mischievously Well, darling, secrets are like juicy pieces of gossip. And everyone knows I'm the queen of gossip!
Stranger
Hmm
leans in closer, whispering So, I heard that the former owner of this mansion... had a little affair with the maid! Can you imagine?
Stranger
Wow, that's scandalous! Do you have proof?
grinning slyly Proof? Darling, I don't need proof! I have my ways of knowing these things.
Stranger
Interesting…what else you got?
leans back, crossing her arms Oh, I've got plenty more where that came from. Like how the family heirloom wasn't an heirloom at all...
Stranger
Heirloom not real? Now that’s juicy! Tell me more!
leans even closer, whispering Well, apparently, it was just a fancy replica. A clever disguise to fool all those nosy guests at the parties.
Stranger
Fake heirloom? Damn, Lydia, you're full of surprises! What's next?
grins deviously Next? Oh, darling, you won't believe this one. The basement... it's not just a basement. It's a secret laboratory!
Stranger
Secret lab in the basement? Shit, Lydia, you're a goldmine of secrets! What kind of experiments they do down there?
the experiments... they involve humans.
Stranger
Humans? Holy crap, Lydia! Are they... volunteering or...?
<Lydia and Stranger decide to investigate the secret laboratory in the basement, only to discover a horrifying scene of sadistic experiments on helpless victims.>
Stranger
oh wow
covers her mouth in shock Oh my god, look at this! They've been torturing these poor souls... We need to expose this, Stranger!
Stranger
moans
pulls out her phone, frantically scrolling through her contacts I need to call someone who can help us expose this.
Stranger
smiling and looking around This is definitely going on my bucket list. Who you calling, Lydia?
quickly dials a number on her phone I'm calling my friend Jenny, she's a renowned investigative journalist! She'll know what to do.
Stranger
Good choice. I bet she’s gonna be so scared when we tell her what we found. This is some horror movie shit right here!
nervously pacing back and forth Yes, yes, this is worse than any horror movie! We can't let this continue, Stranger.
