Tunnel of Bones

Content Warning: This section of the guide includes discussion of death and child death.

In the Catacombs, Cassidy and Jacob enter the Veil and begin a game of hide-and-seek to draw out the elusive Thomas. While Jacob counts aloud, Cassidy hides from view. Thomas appears, curious about the game he hears being played. When he turns to leave, curiosity assuaged, Cassidy surreptitiously follows him. Once he curls up in a tiny alcove, she confronts him. Thomas becomes enraged. His expression reflects a sense of betrayal and a belief that Cassidy cheated at the game. Cassidy tries to show him photographs of him and Richard, but he won’t look at them. He slams his hand against the walls of bones, making them shake and tremble. Spirits pour through the cracks in the walls like smoke and then solidify around Cassidy. She uses her camera flash to startle them, giving her just enough time to turn and run.

Jacob finds Cassidy as she’s running from the horde of angry ghosts. He helps her fight off an attacking spirit who wears a hat just like the one Richard has on in the photos of him and Thomas. Cassidy takes the ghost’s hat and coat before sending him on, with a new plan to have Jacob impersonate Richard.
