34. Pool Room
The smell of chlorine is immediately obvious as the door opens, the echoes of laughter that still linger in the air set the tone for this large room. The far walls are windows, providing a view of the greenhouse, and the space is occupied by two large, Olympic sized pools, a smaller wading pool, and a large hot tub.
Chairs line the sides, perfect for a parent to lounge in while their children play, and a wide variety of pool toys occupy the space around the pool, neatly stacked on shelves as though waiting to be used.
One of the pools is clearly meant for diving, the deeper water almost too deep to see the bottom of. A diving board stands high above the pools, still swaying slightly as though someone has just jumped.
The other pool is monogrammed with the initials M.H. The both pools are lined with an almost translucent blue tile which causes them to look deeper than they actually are. There are small specks of white scattered against the bottom almost innocently, and diving will reveal smooth, high quality pearls. They are flawless and seem to be worth quite a bit of money, though what good is that here?
If someone stands perfectly still in the area, they might begin to hear noises caused by things that aren't there. Something splashes in the deep end of the pool, though no ripples will appear to show that anyone has entered the water. Occasionally one might hear soft laughter, as though someone stands just behind them, or the sound of wet feet running across the floor. Even when the room is otherwise empty, it seems that someone lingers in it.
Doors that lead to a spa and a locker room are hidden in the back. A small closet holds bottles of chemicals, though the drain in the floor shows hints of other stains that have been washed away. Those who step away from the door might hear a soft tapping, as though someone is knocking very gently on the other side of the closed door. Opening it reveals the small room is empty.
35. Locker Room
At the far end of the pools is a public locker room, four stalls for changing and an array of bathing suits from different time periods hanging on racks. The suits gathered there vary in style and size, and anyone who wishes to try can likely find what they are looking for.
Beyond the collection of odds and ends are two large doors leading to public restrooms, though neither is marked with a gender sign. Six neatly kept stalls in each make this one of the most comfortable bathrooms to use, and large stonework sinks provides ample room to wash hands and faces.
A small closet between the rooms holds a wide range of soaps and towels, allowing those who enter here to clean themselves.
Both bathrooms have a shower room with multiple spigots to rinse chemicals off skin.
In the bathroom on the left the showers seems to be a bit tetchy. They work fine, but the temperature knobs clearly need some adjusting, as often the hot water will turn on and refuses to turn off again. Anyone who showers alone in the bathroom on the left might find that they hear someone whispering behind them, though the words are often little more than a request to wash someone’s back.
Strangely, when the showers are empty in the room on the right, those entering the room would insist that it sounds as though the showers are on. Anyone checking the room will find that the floors are dry and the room is entirely unoccupied. The mirrors often fog up for no reason, even if the water isn't on.
36. Spa
Located through another door is a small day spa. Large panes of glass face the greenhouse, and much has been done to make the area as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Six folding chairs sit facing the window, allowing people to sunbathe if they wish. A record player sits in the corner, with a few greatest hits sitting under it. A closet in the corner is filled with mud masks, cucumbers, incense, oils, scented candles and fresh smelling towels.
Three massage tables seem to be waiting only for patients, towels, oils and heated stones in easy reach. A sticky residue remains beneath one of the tables, as though oil has pooled on the table and been allowed to drip. It doesn't smell, but the rust brown color is rather alarming.
Two tanning beds sit behind screens, offering some privacy for those who rest within them. Though the area has been kept meticulously cleaned, one of the beds still clearly holds an occupant. The corpse is now charred beyond recognition and makes it rather difficult to open the bed. Scented candles have cleared the smell from the air.
37. Sauna
A small door in the back of the spa leads to a small personal sauna, the wooden benches smoothly sanded to protect from splinters. The fire in the center is allows stoked, and the steam filling the room is rather relaxing. A clean stack of towels rests outside.
A latch to keep unwary children from wandering into the room can easily be secured from the outside.
It seems like a wonderful place to relax, and the faint strains of music do little to make the room feel unwelcoming.
