It takes some patting around on the floor to find the pieces of your flashlight.

You crouch next to a glow-line to illuminate it. The glow pulls you forward; the broken flashlight anchors you.

With some swearing & some duct tape from your EDC pack, you get the thing working.

Then you shine it over the room and gulp.

When you grabbed the wall to stop yourself - that was a skeleton you grabbed.

A ½-meter ahead is a deep pit.

Even the floor carvings look ominous.

The Pencatte Catacombs, a Fediverse CYOA

I am doing a Halloween Choose Your Own Adventure one post/day from now through the end of the story/Halloween/as I feel it!

#PenCattAcombs - ABOUT

This is a choose-our-own adventure inspired by @nuhn's piece — see here: https://ping.the-planet.space/tags/ChooseOurOwnAdventure

Everyone can vote and please do! Please boost, too!

Polls will be posted daily & will be open for 20-28 hours.

Your character can die! Or be lost forever in the catacombs!

If this happens, up through October 31st, like any good Choose Your Own Adventure, we'll go back to the beginning and pick up with a new character.

Edthwin, not being a stupid man, followed where she led.  The fort was in flames, after all, and there was cannon fire in the distance.

She picked an old well house and paused, clearly just for a moment.
