As you head down the stairs, the air seems to get slightly colder. The lights flicker, reflecting in the mirror on the wall in the room below you. The metal stairs are old and rusty, but the wooden handrail seems waxed and shiny somehow. You each count 20 steps and are able to make it down.
You seem to be in a living room of sorts, with posh looking chairs and a massive mirror above the fireplace. The moon shines in through the window, casting an eerie glow. There's more to this lounge than meets the eye.
On the central glass table, there's a crystal bowl. Its glowing, and you can see something sparkling inside.
Behind the curtains, which are moving slightly, as if blown by an invisible wind, something seems to be swirling on the wall. Red, black... wait, a few of them look like letters...
A painting has suddenly fallen from the wall next to the mirror and smashed onto the ground.
And whenever you look away from the window, you get the feeling you're being watched...
When the lights flicker, Bob holds his breath.
When he gets down, he checks out the writing.

The writing has stopped swirling, and is readable. "They don't survive."

I want you to know. You are going to lose. You are going to lose badly. You’re going to lose badly and it’s going to be awesome.
Kaleb fails to resist his impulses, and goes down the chute.
You slide down the shoot... its pretty fast. It feels like you go through quite a few twists and turns, before flying out of the end. You land in a massive, and I mean massive, pile of laundry.
The room around you looks like this, and the big pile of laundry that you're in is in the corner of the room that isn't visible in the image.

Corvi lunges forward with her Flash Saber, hoping to do big damage. "This is for Jimmy, you Call-of-Cthullu reject!"
5 to hit, 9 damage.
*Damn, that was high damage too... enough to kill as well*
You lunge forward with the saber, but to no avail. The eye retreats into the wall, dodging the attack, and reappears on the wall to your left. Make a dex save!

Corvi is a bit disheartened by how miniscule the damage was, but raises her now-unmodified Flash-Saber to prepare an attack.

Its glowing brightly, almost too bright to look at. Inside the bowl, the light seems to be coming from a round object, maybe the size of a marble.
