Description

Do you really know what's lurking in the basement of your school?

Packing a bunch of dusty books into boxes doesn't sound like a very difficult job, so Matt doesn't think twice when the old librarian at his school offers him the chance to earn some cash on the weekend. But once he gets down to the dark, dark basement, he realizes he's made a grave mistake.

Lurking in the deep corners of the library there are old student photos, horrific taxidermy and no exits. Can Matt find his way out before the creepy librarian preserves his presence in the basement forever?
