《Into the Shadows》Chapter 8: The Langham Room 333 Pt. 3
Advertisement
Colby came down to the lobby to wake me up when they were done doing their investigation and had decided to go to bed until three am. Sam and Colby were exhausted even though they were incredibly jumpy. I told them I would stay awake since I wasn't very tired anyway and watch to make sure nothing too crazy and ghosty happened while they were asleep.
I tried to work on some editing stuff while they were sleeping and eventually with my headache getting stronger and my work getting kind of boring, I decided to sit and just listen to some music. Then, before I even realized what was happening, I fell asleep.
When Sam and Colby woke up to their alarm at three am, I was on the floor in front of the desk chair. I guess I had fallen off in my sleep.
We called Corey and Jake twice to see if they are awake and when they didn't answer, Colby and Sam went back to sleep. At 3:33am, Corey called, so we thought they had just slept through their alarms a bit. We called back but they didn't answer so we walked over to their room to check it out. I recorded that whole thing with the vlog camera since it was too late to be pulling out all the big equipment.
When we arrived, Jake and Corey had been sleeping. Corey had not called Colby and Jake had not done it from Corey's phone. There might have been an explanation because of the prank call app, but we were all too freaked out to care.
Sam confessed to having the same horrible headache as me, which only made us think that is was jet lag. We thought so even more when Colby said he had a headache too, just not as bad as Sam and I. Jake gave us some Advil to help, but I wasn't sure how much it actually could. It was nice of him though.

After a while, we all went back to our rooms for the rest of the night. Sam wanted to try and go back to sleep, but Colby was too freaked out to sleep so he sat in the desk chair while I took his spot on the bed next to Sam with a pillow between us. I was also super overheated so I laid on top of the covers.
I woke up a little while later when Colby grabbed my arm and scared the crap out of me.
"What the fuck were you doing?" he asked me. He seemed seriously freaked out.
"What?" I was so scared that I could barely process what he was talking about.
"In the video!" he yelled.
"What video?!" I yelled back.
"What the hell is going on?" Sam sat up rubbing his head with a hiss when he touched the back of his neck.
"Come look at this!" Colby help the camera up and walked over to Sam's side of the bed.
When Sam stood up off the bed to look at what Colby was trying to show him there was a crash in the bathroom.
"What the fuck was that?!"
The minutes after that were sheer chaos as I watched the two of them panic and pack up to leave. They'd had enough of Room 333. I, on the other hand, was completely confused and so groggy that I barely understood what was happening.
"Guys why are you..." I eventually tried to ask them a question but stopped, "Okay that was very funny, which one of you did that?"
"Did what?" Sam asked giving me the side eye as he checked to make sure everything was in his bag.

"Shook the bed. Were you trying to scare me or wake me up?"
"When?" Colby asked, barely giving me a glance as he checked his own bag.
"Just now."
Neither of them was touching the bed. To have done it, they would have had to kick it to reach it. When they realized what I had just said, their panicked looks grew worse.
"We need to get out of here." Colby grabbed my wrist to yank me off the bed to my feet so I could pack, but immediately the bed started shaking again. This time it was violent and visible to the naked eye, not just something you would feel if you touched it.
I screamed so loud and jumped off the bed. I grabbed anything of mine that I saw and threw it into my duffle bag and back pack, not caring if I had everything.
"Can we leave? Now please!" I was shaking. I felt like if I did anything but yell, fast and loud, I would only have a trembling voice and never be able to finish a word.
I picked up my duffle bag in my right hand to head towards the door, but I tripped over it since my shaking hands had barely been able to lift it off the ground.
"Let's go." Colby said, grabbing my duffle for me and pushing me with my backpack towards the door. Sam was right behind us and with his bag and the big camera's carrying case.
We rushed over to Corey and Jake's room and had them pack their things. I sat on the chair by window, taking short and shaky breaths with my knees tucked up to my chin. I could hear Corey talking to Sam.
"What the hell happened to her?"
"We'll tell you once we get the hell out of here, man, it was crazy."
