The Phone Killer

In this walk, you are posing as a character in this story. You've found a mysterious phone on the ground with some suspicious voicemails left on it, and you're trying to figure out what they mean. There will be a narrator feeding you your thoughts and words as you walk through. You get to take a backseat and watch, but the story won't progress without you walking through the locations. How to start, Go to Lionsgate Apartments, address 5101 Vine St, Lincoln, NE 68504. As you can see on the map, all the points are fairly close together, you walk in a line. To get to the starting point, go to the first circle on the map, which is just a straight path down from the leasing office. You got this!
