Roy wonders "Where is Joker? Wonder if he found any hex bags..."

Mac

"I don't know where to look, I was thinking one of us might realize what it was."

Well everything got weird when I touched this, Jason says producing the book, Its some kind of binding but I dont know how what to do to get it sorted out.

Mac

"I think that is it. I am not sure either but it had something to do with the seal around the house."

Wait- fire? Like...burn the house down? This is above my pay grade, guys. I don't know who or what this...Phil...Aktree...you're looking for is. Just tell me what to light up and I'm good.

Joker's Field Device Timer:  4/6

Joker pleads with the two witches who's attention he has gained. There is a long moment of hesitation, and evident strain as they lift their joined hands up as if opening a way for him to pass through. Not once did their chanting stop.
Mac fills them all in on what he experienced and Jason and Roy speculate the meaning of what he says about finding a phylactery and the possibility of it being the book in Jason's possession. Roy even brings up the Hex Bag and possibly more...

Little did he know.... it was apparently exactly his pay grade...

Roy responds to the burning the house comment first "Uh guys I know I have a reputation as a bit of a screw up at times but burning the house down doesn't sound like something our paying client would appreciate." the moving along "Where is Joker? We all need to figure out who found what and possibly what might have been holding the evil in this place in check." realizing sometimes the tall goofball has a good idea. Out of nowhere Roy's phone starts playing a song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3eC35LoF4U he realizes his Alexa must have been on and it started playing the first song with the title "Burning down the house" it could find.

Mac

"Maybe only as a last resort do we burn the place down."

"Maybe only as a last resort do we burn the place down."

That's always been my motto. Jason looks around feeling the air electrified.

Joker
Joker is shocked for a moment as the witches scream and the texture of the air changes. Kahretsin, kahretsin, Allah hepsini lanetle!
He staggers to Ecto-1 and starts it, intending to move it closer to the house. BH: Do the witches surround the property? Or is there a way to get to the house easily?

The house is completely surrounded by witches with instant migrains. Ever seen a nice lady with a migrain? They can be real witches... And I say that with love for my witch. Joking aside it is horrible to watch, but that is basically what is going on now.

Joker
Joker noses Ecto-1 over the sidewalk, tapping short beeps on the horn. I am sorry, ladies- but I MUST get through! He's not going to hit anyone, obviously, but he's not going to stop until they give way.

Once he's got Ecto up beside the house, he'll start scrounging cable to rig a connection to his device.

I didn't mean...I don't want to burn down the house. I thought that was what Mac meant. What else can you mean when you talk about purifying a house with fire? If you guys have some ideas, I'd love to hear 'em; I don't have any of my own.

Roy shrugs at Lionel "I've no idea mate but maybe go ask one of the witches outside. They'd be more experts in the matter of purifying by fire tan I would be."

Joker's Field Device Timer:  4.5/6

Joker Noses the Ecto a little closer to the house but not before a couple witches crawl out of the way.  A few of them are starting to pull themselves up to their feet and collect themselves, trying to rally the others.  More than a few begin shouting at the others to get up and help the others who are still struggling.  Joker can also smell the tell tale odor of heating metal and silicon from his device as it begins to show signs of strain as he predicted.

Jason, Mac, Roy, & Lionel continue to debate burning down the house of coming up with another idea.  There is a building ruckus in the upper floors of the house.  Voices and slamming doors accompanied by a groan from the house itself as it sways slightly in the building wind which tears at the old curtains at the broken window the statues came through moments ago.

Roy does his best Scooby Doo and Shaggy impression and starts to run for the front door and outside.

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

Unsure if there will even be a house to burn down much longer, Lionel, too, makes his way outdoors. Seeing some of the witches struggling to regain their feet, he heads over to help. Ah, they're on our side, right?

Joker
[4d6]=16 ghost [1d6]=2 Joker hurries, scrounging for usable cables to power his device. Maybe there's an extension cord? Or a set of jumper cables that can be attached to the battery?
He is focused on what he's doing, and barely notices the others leaving the house.
