Um. Okay. Well, I'm glad we came prepared. [Rachel has a small bag of five flashlights or so, all of which will more than likely promptly lose power two steps into the house, but she distributes them to each member dutifully.] Is everyone here? If so, we should probably get inside.
[Jesse tests his flashlight out, shining it on Rachel's green skin. he came prepared, too...he has in his pocket.] I still have a bad feeling about this.
[Zombie Bieber is playing with his Batman flashlight he brought along.] Dude, don't say that. That's usually what people say at the start of a horror movie...
Oh, right! I was going to text you, and then I realized that I didn't have your number. Sam Evans. He was in glee with us. [Rachel beams, nodding, her black hat bobbing excitedly as she does so.] Shall we head on in? [She ushers them into the foyer and the hallway that follows, frowning as she notices the disgusting sound coming from the carpet under her feet.]
I'm not scared. [He can't stop himself from pointing it out petulantly as he follows Rachel into the house, not really wanting to leave her or Buffy. Shining his flashlight down the hallway at the shoes he grimaces.] What the hell kind of freak thought this up?
[Sam smiles at Buffy as Rachel introduces him. But he loses his smile when he sees the portraits on the walls, grimacing.] Okay, I'm officially creeped out.
Yeah, okay. [ Finn snorts, following them into the house, ready for the fun to begin. He notices the shoes just inside the doorway with a slight frown ]
Are we meant to leave our shoes here? [ he doesn't sound very keen on the idea, but his question is soon forgotten when he looks up when Sam speaks and sees the portraits too ]
That was only half me being glib. The other half was me telling you, get behind me if something doesn't look fake.
[ Buffy's looking around a little paranoidly since her last haunted house had a fear demon in it. Still, this doesn't seem that bad. Time to keep to the rear in case anything tries to come at them from behind, they'll come at her first and she can see it if it's ahead of them.
Oh, hey, paintings. She makes an "ew" face. ]
Think the guy who owned this place died of bad interior decorating?
I don't... think we should take our shoes off. No, that seems like an awful idea. [Rachel frowns, firmly staying just slightly behind Buffy. She might even have linked their arms.]
[She notices the piano in the study, looking dusty and worn.] Do you think it still works?
[So far he's just following along, doing his best to stay in front of Rachel and shield her...Jesse fingers the first few notes of "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" before wincing at the noise he gets in response.] It's really out of tune...
Like I'd take my shoes off here, the floor even sounds gross... [There are some diaries on the wall but he'd rather not be watched by the others as he struggles to read them because of his dyslexia.]
I don't even want to know what I'm standing on, man.
[ he snickers at Buffy's comment, but there is an element of panic to it too ] As long as it was just that and not whatever got his great-great-uncles or whoever these dudes are. [ he gestures at the paintings, almost unable to look away.
He looks over his shoulder as Jesse starts trying the piano ] Guys, who cares? It's just a prop, we should carry on exploring.

Thanks, Rach.
It's only a haunted house, Jesse. You're not scared already, are you?

Unless you really suck at playing piano I'm thinking working is not the word I'd use to describe that.
[ Of course, almost as soon as Jesse stops an eerie tune seems to be coming from... well, somewhere. ]
Does anyone else hear that?
