The **Bannon Soundstage** is a Location in *Not For Broadcast*, located within the country.

## Description

The Bannon Soundstage is a high-rise building constructed in 1957 by Graham Bannon, in order to produce *Dying Is Another Man's Job*. After the project's failed production, the Bannon Soundstage would be abandoned for over 25 years, until Channel One's Live & Spooky team investigated rumors about the building's haunted past.

## Locations

### The Hub

The Hub is the main part of the Bannon Soundstage, from which the other parts of the building are connected to. During Day 85: Live & Spooky, the Hub would be used as the Live & Spooky team's main operating center for the broadcast, and had all their equipment set up there.

### Costume Room

The Costume Room is one of the first four rooms Wayne and Patrick can visit during the first segment of Day 85: Love & Spooky. During the production of Dying is Another Man's Job, it was used by costume designer Marie Murphy to create a costume worn by Brent Backflip that would ultimately result in his failed stunt. If the Costume Room is the third room visited, it would be discovered that Graham Bannon cancelled Marie's initial orders for high quality fabric, instead purchasing lower quality materials. When Marie had questioned Graham about the budget slash, Graham replied in a letter to "stop squawking and do your...job", that it was "none of [her] business". This evidence proves that Graham Bannon's negligence was to blame for Brent's failed stunt.

### Prop Store

The Prop Store is one of the first four rooms Wayne and Patrick can visit during the first segment of Day 85: Love & Spooky. During the production of Dying is Another Man's Job, propmaker Cedric Sloane used this room to create and maintain the dumbbells used for Brent's stunt, rumored to have been sabotaged for production. However, if the Prop Store is visited last, Cedric reveals through Wayne that he did not cause the accident, but puts the blame on Graham himself.

### Sound Stage

The Sound Stage is one of the first four rooms Wayne and Patrick can visit during the first segment of Day 85: Love & Spooky. Brent Backflip's failed stunt occurred here, and the Vault lies below this room. If the Sound Stage is visited last, Brent reveals through Wayne that he did not cause the accident, and his wallet does not reveal any evidence of wrongdoing.

The Sound Stage is also the first room visited by one of the crew during the second segment, where a mysterious ghostly force causes them to vanish.

### Workshop

The Workshop is one of the first four rooms Wayne and Patrick can visit during the first segment of Day 85: Love & Spooky. This is where all final checks are made before props, costumes, and sets can be used. With no direct ties to the Backflip incident, all three stories come together in this room if visited last, and Wayne cannot decipher all the voices at once.

### Writers' Room

The Writers' Room is the second room visited by one of the crew during the second segment of Day 85: Live & Spooky. This room is where an early draft of one of Graham Bannon's shows is uncovered, and also where the aggressive spirit of Marie Murphy traps the unsuspecting crew member in the room, taking them away on a rolling chair.

### Dressing Room

Graham Bannon's dressing room is the third room visited by one of the crew during the second segment of Day 85: Live & Spooky. While during filming, much of the decoration had worn away, a ghostly vision reveals Marie and Graham arguing over money, and that Marie threatened to expose Graham's fraudulent activities. After the vision, a manifestation of Marie appears and seems to strangle the crew member.

### Projector Room

The Projector Room is the final room visited by the last remaining crew member during the second segment of Day 85: Live & Spooky, and where the third segment begins. During production of Live & Spooky, burned films and scripts are discovered, an old projector turns on by itself, and blood writing appears on the wall, reading "BANNON".

At the start of the third segment, the room's inhabitant barricades the door in an attempt to prevent Marie's manifestation from entering, but she tries to break in. It is unknown whether this individual survives by this point.

### The Vault

The Vault is the final room visited during Day 85: Live & Spooky, situated underneath the Sound Stage. It is rumoured that Marie Murphy took her own life in this very room, and if Alex fails to solve the mystery of the show, where the Sound Stage crew member dies at the hands of the manifestation.

If Alex is able to repair both film reels, Holly tries to assure an angered Marie that the fire and the accident was all not her fault, that the blame was entirely Graham's. Marie's spirit is appeased, and she presents a film to Holly, desiring it be shown to the public. Patrick later appears, making an attempt to destroy the film, saying it's left a bad legacy on his family name. Instead, Holly steals the film back, shoving dust into his face and quitting as his assistant in the process. Patrick is distraught by these events, claiming he'll "never work again", or worse "they'll put [him] on the Sports desk".
