Incident: Lights Out

The wind howls, and somewhere in the gardens of Cartlesham Manor, an oak branch drops clean through the cables of the gazebo lighting. As the ancient wiring sparks and burns through, the entire house is plunged into darkness. In the stumbling confusion, a chaise longue in the library becomes wedged under the doorhandle, blocking the room for 24 hours.

(Note that the Master Bedroom also cannot be entered or left until 9:10pm on Saturday night.)
