Haunted Hotel: Lost Dreams

**Haunted Hotel: Lost Dreams** is the sixteenth installment in the *Haunted Hotel* series by Elephant Games.

## Plot

Mark and Jane Stuart are a happily married couple on vacation in the Swiss Alps. Just after Jane asks Mark to take a picture of her with the beautiful mountains in the background, the train in which they are traveling crashes. When Mark regains his senses, he finds himself in a completely unfamiliar room, alone, with no idea where he is, how he got there, or what happened to his wife. Escaping the room, he begins a desperate search for Jane.

Eventually he learns that the train crash was caused by Dr. John Schneider. Schneider once had a wife and two children, all of whom he adored; but they were in a terrible accident and his wife did not survive. The children, Alice and Tony, survived but remain in a strange coma, kept alive only through the miraculous properties of Alpine water. Schneider has discovered a way to bring them back to life using other people's life force, so he arranged the train crash and kidnapped Mark and Jane because they survived. He doesn't say whether there were other survivors. Mark realizes that he has been exploring the hotel in spirit form, and that his body is actually in a tank filled with Alpine water. His life is now connected to Tony's, and Jane's is likewise connected to Alice's, but Dr. Schneider says that if they work together to finish the project everyone will survive. Mark doesn't really have a choice but to agree.

### Bonus Chapter

Some time after the events of the main game, Jane and Mark return to the Alps and drop by Schneider's Hotel to visit Alice and Tony. Alice welcomes them warmly, but almost immediately passes out. When she regains consciousness, she explains that she's been having recurring dreams about her father, warning her that something terrible is coming. She told her brother about the dreams, and he promised to look into it for her, but has since disappeared. While Jane stays with Alice, Mark returns to the depths of the hotel to find out what's happened to Tony.
