You arrived at the hotel you booked. The place seems nice. You are walking accross the hall when suddenly a big plastic bottle with a welcomming greenish fizzy-drink appears in your hand.
[[accept the bottle]]
[[throw the bottle in the waste bin]]You decided to do something for your health and use the stairs instead. In a few minutes you were there.
However, when you were walking down the hallway to your room you heard a weird noise from a ventilation unit.
You thought it was okay so you just continued walking to your room.
You are there now.
[[Unlock the door.]]
The elevator seemed a bit odd but you still got in. However, when you pressed the button to the fifth floor, the thing took you down instead of up. Or did it? You were now going fast into the unknown depth under the hotel. You started panicking. Where was the elevator taking you?!
The elevator finally stopped. The door opened. First thing you heard were some horrible dying screams and then the door closed right up on you and trapped you in its jaws. When you seemed to wrestle yourself out, some strong hands grabbed you and injected you with a sedative.

(if: $upcycling is 1) [After a long day of travel you finally opened the door of your hotel room and, exhausted, you jumped into the bed.
You slept till the next day. With the morning sun you dressed up and headed out of your hotel room.
[[Smoke a cigarette at the balcony.]]
[[Have a drink in the bar upstairs.]]
[[Drink the green fizzy drink.]]]

[[Smoke a cigarette at the balcony.]]
[[Have a drink in the bar upstairs.]]]You got to the balcony. You lit a cigarette and started smoking. You sensed a weird feeling and from a sudden burst of anxiety you started smoking the whole pack. Then all of a sudden you became persuaded that you were a Spiderman.
You jumped over the railing and you fell to your death.You drank too much alcohol when you came there. Then you decided to go to the hallway and sing some drinking songs. You heard something from the vent again but this time a monster crawled out of the vent and dragged you in the vent with you.
You died.(if: $upcycling is 1) [
You used the plastic botle from your bag and with the sharp edge of the bottle top you quickly cut the plastic wrapper. Freed from plastic prison you started running. Just when you needed it, the elevator door opened. You ran in there and hoped the guy with the knife would not make it. The elevator closed just in time to show your pursuer´s surprized face.
When you got up to the lobby everyone was creepily smiling at you. You started running again and with some luck made it out of the hotel. All the people in the hotel were still trying to chase you, but you ran to the woods, you ran and ran and ran, till there was only you and nobody else.
Congratulations. You made it out alive. You knew from the very beginning there was something wrong with this hotel.
THE END]
(else:)[Unfortunately there seem to be no epic items in your bag so you have nothing to free yourself with. Your journey really ends here.]When you woke up you were wrapped all in plastic. Someone in front of you was holding a knife. They tried to stab you in the stomach. Your journey is about to end right before it even started.
[[Try to escape from the wrapped up plastic.]](set: $upcycling to 1)
You never refuse nourition when offered free. Apart from that, why should you throw away a sound plastic bottle, if it can serve as a good weapon against dark forces.
You hid this epic item in your bag and continued to the reception desk.
[[Continue->dilemma]]You don´t need any free drinks. Moreover, plastic is disgusting and spoils the Earth.
You threw the bottle into the waste bin and continued to the reception desk.
[[Continue->dilemma]]You came to the receptionist. He gave you a key to your room. The room number was 555. The room was on the fifth floor. You hesitated whether to take an elevator or use the stairs.
[[Use the stairs.]]
[[Go by elevator.]]You took a sip from your fizzy drink and left the hotel. On your way back you heard the sound from the ventilation system. You looked up and saw a hole in the ceiling. You took the empty bottle and sealed the hole with it.
You made it home nice and safe.
Congratulations. You survived a very nasty Halloween survival game.
