There were voices not too far away, but shining his light around in this hall revealed that he was alone for now. This was definitely someone's idea of a freakfest, turning off all the lights and unlocking the doors at once like that. Straight out of a horror game, and terribly cliché.

Matt knew better than to start asking the darkness if anyone was there. The last thing he wanted to do was attract attention. For now, he was simply going to listen to whatever he could hear the hall over, keeping his own room close enough that he could dash to it if need be.
