The Nefarious Haunt Experience Escape Room #2

Permanently Closed - This house holds a twisted evil and looks forward to unleashing its evil on those wandering in. Its inhabitants, The Pendergast family, enjoys tormenting and punishing any visitors after robbing them and taking anything valuable they may hold. Without any fear of the authorities, they have been rumored responsible for dozens of deaths and linked to countless missing persons. When interstate 95 was built, the results devastated small businesses along Route 301 in Hanover County. Amongst the most brutal hit were the Pendergast family, who owned the Inn and the general store, which they lived above. People in Hanover County had stayed clear of the Pendergast family before their economic distress. There had been reports of people who disappeared while staying at the inn, but nothing concrete had ever been proven. After the interstate went in, the Pendergasts lost the inn, and the general store, the Pendergasts had never moved out and are believed to still reside there. Once the traffic had died down on Route 301, drag racing became popular. Spray-painted lines had been made in front of the inn, the starting point, and the general store, the ending. One driver, The Phantom, who drove a blue flamed Dodge, was rumored to have never lost a race. No one knew The Phantom's identity, but it was rumored he was AWOL from the U.S. Army. One Friday night, two boys challenged The Phantom to a race. The two cars speed down Route 301, neck and neck. The crowd at the Inn noticed that the cars had stopped, and some went to check what was happening. As they got close to the old general store, they heard ear-piercing screams and ran off. The rest of the crowd dissipated as the sheriff's deputy's sirens could be heard in the distance. The Pendergast family is still believed to live inside the general store, and there are often reports of missing people in the area. Occasionally, a thrill seeker will try to enter the general store to find out if the Pendergast family is still inside. But none have been heard from since.
