The Shaft

Approaching the dark shaft, you realize it’s a dumbwaiter. You haven’t seen one of these in a long time, considering they’re pretty much only endemic to old and/or large houses. Thinking back, you begin to wonder where you ever saw one to begin with.

You shrug away the thought and examine the dumbwaiter. It’s peculiar that it would come all the way to the attic. You wonder how far down the shaft goes. 

The box looks big enough for you to fold yourself into and still be able to operate the pulley.
