    Summary

    An unnamed protagonist chooses to spend the night in an allegedly haunted room in Lorraine Castle. He intends to disprove the legends surrounding it. Despite vague warnings from the three infirm custodians who reside in the castle, the narrator ascends to "the Red Room" to begin his night's vigil.

    Initially confident, the narrator becomes increasingly uneasy in the room. He attempts to conquer his fear by lighting candles, but keeping the candles lit in the draughty room becomes an ongoing battle. Each time a candle is snuffed out, the narrator's fear increases. He begins to imagine that the drafts are guided by a malevolent intelligence. As the narrator's fear reaches a crescendo, he stumbles onto a large piece of furniture (possibly the bed), and ricochets of the walls, in a blind panic; hitting his head and eventually falling unconscious. The caretakers, who found him earlier in the morning, feel vindicated when the narrator agrees that the room is haunted. They are eager to hear a description of the phantom, but he surprises them by explaining that there is no ghost residing in the room. The room is haunted by fear itself.

    Red Room (White House)

    The Red Room is one of three state parlors on the State Floor in the White House, the home of the President of the United States. The room has served as a parlor and music room, and recent presidents have held small dinner parties in it. It has been traditionally decorated in shades of red.

    The room is approximately 28 feet by 22.5 feet. It has six doors, which open into the Cross Hall, Blue Room, South Portico, and State Dining Room.

    Furnishings

    Through most of the nineteenth century the Red Room saw a fast changing series of styles from American Empire, Renaissance Revival, Rococo Revival, and the Aesthetic Movement. Furnishings from earlier administrations were sold at auction to fund the acquisition of newer, more fashionable furniture.

    The 1819 Italian marble mantel, with caryatid supports, is one of a pair ordered by President James Monroe and originally installed in the State Dining Room. In 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt selected Charles Follen McKim of the New York architectural firm McKim, Mead & White to renovate the White House. Among McKim's changes were moving the mantels from the State Dining Room to the Red Room and Green Room, and removing the assortment of mismatched furniture that had accumulated over the years.

    Red room
    Bedroom
    Clean sheets
    Dark night
    Star light
    Heat...
    First kiss
    Near-miss
    Holding breath
    Her tongue
    So young
    Dead
    I know this is wrong
    I have been silent for too long
    I know this is wrong
    I have been silent for too long
    Mommy
    Sorry
    Had no choice
    Daddy
    At me
    Hear my voice
    And I know this wrong
    I have been silent for too long
    I know this is wrong
    I have been silent for too long
    Love has so many faces
    I don't know what they all mean
    They take me many places
    But not all of them are clean
    Day now
    I vow
    Never more
    I will
    Kill
    This is war
    This is war
    This is war
    And I know this wrong
    I have been silent for too long
    I know this is wrong
