The haunted house was supposed to be 'safe' for 'rookies like him'. Wandering down into a room that was errily familiar like what he'd grown up seeing in the old cathedrals the statues within were creepily accurate in anatomy. Very... accurate in how he was suddenly wondering if they were going to come alive accurate.
He started to tap on a few of them as he went, just to be sure. It didn't help that the place had one of those fancy fountains in the center. Made it seems all the more classical and creepy.
