Hilton!Here is a quick recap: Conrad and Peter are two brothers who are running a crime ring out of a sleazy motel. Peter met a new client, and acquired a sample of some new product. He likely took most of it, and planted a baggie of it on Morgan, one of the working girls. Conrad found it, and decided to take Morgan and his muscle-Wes to see the seller—the mysterious Ma Hoyt.The three arrive at her spooky manse, which is surrounded by dead-eyed lackeys hanging around, one of whom seems particularly interested in Wes. She invites them in and serves them a strange, aromatic tea, which leaves them calmer but also strangely dazed. As Conrad explains their situation to Ma Hoyt, she decides to put Morgan through a trial to test her innocence. Silas, Ma Hoyt’s right hand man, pushes a button below a desk, and a trap door opens beneath Morgan, plunging her into darkness.Conrad and Wes remain, muddled and suspicious, as Ma Hoyt intently watches a closed circuit camera feed.Without further ado—this is part 2 of Witch House, written by A.G.
