Wrenwood Files

File Content
Hotel Pamphlet The Wrenwood Hotel has been welcoming guests from all walks of life since opening its doors in 1928. Experience the warm embrace of nearly a century's worth of history along with Wrenwood's time-honored traditions.
Notice of Closure To all employees,
Following the recent incident, management has been working hard to restore public trust. Unfortunately, due to the extent of the damage, it is unclear if it will be possible to reopen. Consequently, it is with great regret that we must announce the official closure of The Wrenwood Hotel.
We apologize greatly for the impact this may have on you and your families, and wish to extend our heartfelt gratitude for the support and hard work you have brought to the long-standing business.
Alyssa's Journal Page 1:
October 17, 2018
Work has settled down and we're heading to a new town the day after tomorrow. I’m thankful my freelance work allows me to work anywhere, but I’m worried about Grace. It’s difficult for her to make friends when we’re constantly on the move. Maybe we can spend a little more time in the next town.
Page 2:
October 18, 2018
Finished some research and stopped in a cafe when I noticed a hooded man. I could have sworn he was watching me. Maybe I’m just being paranoid.
Page 3:
October 19, 2018
I saw that hooded man again. He’s definitely following me.
We only just got here, but I think we should move on. I can’t let anything happen to Grace.
Report on Victor Gideon Page 1:
Investigator
Andrew Hughes (DSO Survey Team)
Person of Interest
Name: Victor Gideon
Age: 54
Gender: Male
Nationality: USA
Page 2:
I couldn’t dig up much on Victor Gideon. What we do know is that he’s a former employee of Umbrella and was involved in researching the T-Virus.
After the Raccoon City Incident, he was called as a witness in the Umbrella trials, but the court couldn’t track him down.
Page 3:
I traced his whereabouts to the Rhodes Hill Chronic Care Center, a private institution where he acts as the director.
The center is also a research facility that handles highly sensitive data. It’s had a clean bill for years and avoided the scrutiny of any and all agencies.
Page 4:
Additional Notes:
Rhodes Hill Chronic Care Center was once run by the Spencer Foundation.
I’d be surprised if we didn’t find something off about the place.

I've misplaced the key for the puzzle box padlock. None of the other executives must find out.
I need you to locate it discreetly before next week's meeting. If you can't find it, get the bottle of corrosive from the conference room and melt the lock off.
Patient Medical Records Page 1:
Subject: Martin L. Case
Symptoms: Auditory sensitivity
Following an experiment with an overdose of Zipreval, the subject started to have auditory hallucinations and became aggressive and difficult to control. The subject exhibits erratic behavior when exposed to loud noises.
Page 2:
Subject: Eileen Zimmerson
Symptoms: Persistent vocalization and wandering
The surgical removal of some cranial nerves resulted in a type of histrionic personality disorder that can only be described as main character syndrome. The patient continues to wander around the care center singing.
Page 3:
Subject: Selena Corey
Symptoms: Persistent vocalization and wandering
Her symptoms are more pronounced than Zimmerson's. She often puts on performances in the west wing's bar and lounge, as if she's competing with her rival.

Mutated T-Virus Strain
Page 3:
In rare instances, repeated mutations of the T-Virus can trigger an abnormal reaction in an infected individual's body, leading to changes in their blood.
The mutated strains of the T-Virus will likely sweep the world, and total eradication will be impossible.

Those infected by the mutated T-Virus strain firmly retain their pre-infection habits and characteristics.

Subject: Grace Ashcroft L .
Period of Observation: September 9-16, 2026
Detective: M. D. Birdie, RGT Detective Agency
Summary of Investigation
- Employed by the FBI at the Midwest Field Office.
- Lives alone, close to her office.
- Goes home late, often after midnight.
- Spends her free time at home.
- No confirmed contact with others.
Page 2:
Findings
It's difficult to get close as the target rarely leaves the FBI Midwest Field Office area. If you want to make contact without raising suspicion, it would be best to do so when she's away from home.
A more detailed report and several photographs will be sent at a later date.
Disposal Team Report Page 1:
Assignment: Evidence Erasure
Report Date: Oct. 20, 2018, 6:42 a.m.
A retrieval mission was conducted shortly after 1:30 a.m. at the Wrenwood Hotel.
We were dispatched soon after to dispose of any evidence.
Page 2:
All witnesses at the hotel had already been taken care of.
The body of the assassin that was sent was also destroyed. We had a stroke of luck with that fire. As they say, the best place to hide a leaf is in a forest.
This incident will likely be ruled an act of arson and homicide by some nutcase.
Any evidence linking us to the scene is gone.
Double Mutation Page 1:
There have been a number of cases where corpses infected with the mutated T-Virus strain have exhibited rapid tissue regeneration and sudden violent behavior.
Analysis of the enlarged tumor that formed on the heads of these patients revealed a sudden change in red blood cell patterns consistent with the pattern found in urine tests. This additional mutation is considered a side effect of the mutated T-Virus strain.
We have named those with double mutation symptoms Blister Heads.
Page 2:
In rare cases, the tumor was observed to spread from the head across the entire body.
If the abscesses covering these individuals burst, the fluids they expel will induce double mutation in nearby infected.
Hemolytic poison has proven effective at preventing double mutation, otherwise the head must be completely destroyed. Always exercise extreme caution when handling infected corpses.
Nurse's Log Page 1:
Sept. 3
As per the doctor's orders, from today I will take part in monitoring the progress of subject 171. She is emotionless and unsettling. This assignment fills me with unease.
Page 2:
Sept. 10
Subject 171 is blind and requires a lot of assistance. I felt sorry for her and tried to offer some comfort by stroking her hair, but as always received no reaction. Such an unnerving child. I just want to go home and shower.
Page 3:
Sept. 24
For some reason the security manager joined me today. He asked subject 171 two or three questions about blood, but of course a child wouldn't know how to respond. What a strange man.
Satiety Suppression Medical Records Page 1:
Subject: Thomas K. Jackson
Symptoms: Irregular eating patterns
After a surgical procedure to suppress the satiety center of the brain, the subject experienced an increase in appetite and weight gain.
He began to ingest everything he could get his hands on, including infusion pumps and pacemakers.
Page 2:
Subject: Timothy B. Jackson
Symptoms: Irregular eating patterns
Exhibits the same symptoms as his brother, with a particularly strong fixation on human flesh. Must be treated with extreme caution as he becomes violently agitated if not constantly eating.
Dishwasher's Note Hey asshat!
Heard you lost the pantry key again. Mr. Bigshot Chef made me crawl around the filthy fucking floors to find it.

Report on Raccoon City Syndrome Page 1:
This report outlines the current research on Latent Onset T-Virus Syndrome (henceforth referred to as Raccoon City Syndrome).
Raccoon City Syndrome occurs when residual T-Virus within the body mutates over a prolonged period of time.
I have yet to find an effective treatment, and when it manifests, the results are fatal.
Page 2:
Stage 0: Dormancy
The virus lies temporarily dormant within the host due to the presence of specific antibodies. As the virus is not completely suppressed, it begins to build an immunity to the antibodies over time.
Stage 1: Activation
The virus becomes active and black, bruise-like marks begin to appear on parts of the body. Mild symptoms such as general malaise and coughing occur.
Raccoon City Syndrome appears to develop through the following stages.
Page 3:
Stage 2: Development
The black marks spread further across the body, coupled with numbness in the affected areas. The marks extend to the internal organs, sometimes leading to hematemesis.
Stage 3: End-stage
The black marks darken and spread across the entire body. Severe pain and intense fatigue make moving difficult. Vomiting of blood becomes uncontrollable. Patients at the terminal stage typically die within one to two hours.
Staff Member's Last Words Everyone's dead.
The plan went to shit.
I'm the only one left in this godforsaken place. I tried to escape, but what's the point.
I can still see my colleagues being eaten alive. Like an endless loop playing over and over in my head. Let it stop.
Please.
Operation to Eliminate The Girl To all employees,
The Girl is currently occupying the basement. We plan to corner her by taking advantage of the subject's intolerance to light and will place high-intensity ultraviolet lamps throughout the area.
Once this is complete, we will begin the operation to eliminate the subject.
Prepare your weapons and be on standby.
Unlocking the Cells You gotta insert the three joint plugs and pull the left lever if you're crazy enough to open the cells.
The joint plugs are currently being used to power other areas.
I've marked their locations on the map. Removing them will cut the electricity, so you better be extra sure before you start messing around with them.
Technician's Note The quality of blood the laboratory receives has gone downhill. We've been notified from above to take immediate action.
Looks like some problem during the separation process is to blame.Going to do some work on it.
Taking the toolbox to the boiler room for repairs.
Security Guard's Report The 12 subjects we were provided with were confirmed infected and reduced to blood at the processing area.
We'll be able to increase the turnover rate even more thanks to the increased stock from our supply chain.
We have already started processing today's additions.

Purpose: Project review with Victor Gideon
Notes: Patient status, preliminary research findings
Note Regarding Research Results Your presentation was quite impressive. While we are pleased to hear that the experiment has progressed to phase four, it is far from the results we expect.
It has been more than twenty years since the establishment of this care center. We require clear results.
As an added precaution, we have requested the blockade be extended to 2040. It is imperative we obtain Elpis before that deadline.
Spencer's Research II Page 1:
Memory Transfer
Ozwell E. Spencer
Humanity suffers when the drive and experience of our most exceptional leaders is lost. The ultimate way to preserve such greatness is to transfer those memories to a new vessel.
Just as fruit flies have the potential to pass on certain memories to their offspring through their genes, so too can the memories of a human donor be passed on to a recipient.
The question we now face is how to harness this incredible potential.
Page 2:
The answer lies in the medium of memory—blood.
Cells within the blood contain multitudes of information, including factors tied to memory.
Thus, since the T-Virus grants us control over factors within the blood, it can be hypothesized that harnessing those same elements will allow us to transfer memories from superior individuals.
Page 3:
However, for such a procedure to succeed, the host must be able to withstand the toxicity of the mutated T-Virus strain while preserving their own intelligence. Sourcing viable subjects will be the key to future research and testing.
Subject 170 Record Page 1:
Extracted a 2.3-milliliter sample from the 524.3 liters of blood collected from 115 infected.
Administered to Marie.
Henceforth registered as subject 170.
Page 2:
Subject 170 exhibited increased physical resilience but failed to fulfill the goal of the experiment. The subject showed signs of mental instability before escaping.
Confirmed for immediate disposal.

Raccoon City Files

Report on the Raccoon City Incident Page 1:
Raccoon City
A city in the Midwest surrounded by nature. From the early to mid-90s, pharmaceutical giant Umbrella invested heavily in the city.
However, in September 1998, the T-Virus leaked from Umbrella's underground laboratory, causing a city-wide epidemic.
On October 1, the U.S. government recognized the severity of the situation and ordered a sterilization of the city. Raccoon City was wiped off the face of the earth and remains under lockdown to this day.
Page 2:
Umbrella
Umbrella was founded in 1968 by three people, one of whom was Ozwell E. Spencer.
On the surface it was a successful international corporation, but beneath the veneer lay a hive of illegal research, including development of the T-Virus.
The infamous 1998 disaster, now known as the Raccoon City Incident, exposed their illicit deeds to the public. Umbrella went to trial and eventually ceased operations in 2004, after declaring bankruptcy.
Page 3:
Ozwell E. Spencer
Spencer was a founding member, and leader, of Umbrella. His excellent managerial skills helped the company grow into a major corporation.
His true nature, however, was that of a monster who repeatedly conducted inhumane tests to advance his illegal viral research. Spencer was egotistical and ruthless in pursuit of his ambitions. It's believed he even took out the other founders of Umbrella.
He passed away in 2006 at his secluded estate, after Umbrella went under.
Raccoon City Incident Newspaper Page 1:
EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY!
If you are in Raccoon City, I urge you to evacuate now! Leave if you can!
If you cannot evacuate, go to the police station, the nearest public facility, wherever you can!
Take any weapon you have and hide in the nearest sturdy building.

This will probably be the last paper we will publish. And I am the last Raccoon Times reporter.
Thank you, dear readers, for all your support over the years.
I urge you once more. Run. Find somewhere safe.
Survive.

Top Secret Operation Page 1:
Champions of justice, are you ready? Duty calls!
Provisions Specialist Neil, Do you have the pizza and beer at the ready? Make sure you’ve got some soda on hand too— in case the rookie is liver-conscious.
Page 2:
Decorating Manager Elliot, Think you’re an artist? Then show us what you got! Make sure you use the banner with the stars on it.
Gift Coordinator Scott, Don’t forget to pick up the goods from Robert’s shop on the day. Get what Barry suggested, that man knows his stuff!
Page 3:
One last thing! Make sure the chief doesn’t catch wind of the welcome party for the new recruit. We wouldn’t want to put young Kennedy in his bad books right away.

Record of Events Page 1:
September 25th
We're turning the station into a temporary shelter due to the sudden massive outbreak. All police personnel have been instructed to make the safety of the citizens their top priority as we try to accommodate as many of them as possible.
Page 2:
September 25th (addendum)
One of the refugees attacked us in the middle of the night, resulting in the death of one officer and injuring three others. The person in question was quickly restrained. We believe this was simply a case of someone snapping under intense stress.
Page 3:
September 26th
A mob attacked the station today, resulting in a number of casualties. A few survivors were able to make it safely behind the emergency shutters, but surrounded as we are, it'll be hard for any of us to escape this place. We're not sure we can fix any of our comm equipment, so we remain cut off from the outside world.
Page 4:
September 27th
There was another clash on the west side of the station around 1 p.m. Twelve people died, and there is only a handful of survivors left. Everything is falling into disarray in here.

Guide Pamphlet Page 1:
Welcome to Raccoon City!
Did you know that while we are the home of pharmaceutical giant Umbrella Corporation, Raccoon City is a vibrant and dynamic city with a long, rich history of its own. In this guide, we’ll introduce you to just a few of the more unusual points of interest our city has to offer.
Page 2:
Raccoon City Police Station
The building in the center of town wasn't always a police station-in fact, it used to be an art museum. Various features like the unusual clock tower and the goddess statue in the main hall remind us of a bygone era.
Page 3:
Orphanage
Just a few blocks from the police station is an orphanage founded and run by the Umbrella Corporation with the help of generous donations from businesses and citizens alike. The building is known for its stained glass window, which attracts visitors from around the world.

Comments: Discarded due to volatile symptoms.
Series 60 Results Page 1:
Though the Series 60 possesses recombinant DNA, increasing the volume of Spencer's injected plasma did not result in successful memory transfer. Mental abnormalities were developed.
We will perform the next medical procedure and progress to the final phase.
Page 2:
However, after adjusting the viral load in the blood of Series 70 subject Chloe, improved signs of stability were observed.
We will continue to monitor her progress.
New Researcher's Notebook Page 1:
Today was unbelievable. I somehow got invited to the renowned Ozwell E. Spencer’s lab.
I heard rumors about the place, but to think ARK has been underneath me this entire time!
Page 2:
I was given a quick tour of the attached orphanage too. The children there really creeped me out-they all have nasty surgical scars across their heads, and if you meet their gaze, they'll greet you with this unsettling giggle.
Apparently, they are used for human experiments. The whole thing gives me goosebumps.
To have built a place like this, Spencer must've been more unhinged than any of us imagined.
Page 3:
Sensational.
The prospect of being able to freely experiment on those kids sends shivers of anticipation throughout my entire body. It's all so exciting!
For now, I'll start by making the rounds at the orphanage tonight. It seems like the newbie always gets stuck with the boring jobs. Hopefully I can wrap up the tedious bits quickly so I can prepare for the real fun tomorrow.

Alyssa's Interview Notes Page 1:
16th, 13:00, Ozwell E. Spencer
- World War and Cold War. Founded Umbrella out of despair. Loquacious.
- T-Virus, bioweapons. Incomplete blood research.
- Immortality, memory transfer, advanced breed of human, mind control.
- All for the evolution of humanity?
- Bioterrorism and human experimentation. No response to questions. Doubt?
- Elpis will be their □□□□□□
- Elpis? Look it up later.
Page 2:
Impressions:
More rational than expected. A pure scientist. An idealist.
- That purity was the origin of madness?
- A twisted genius at his core.
Some hesitation in his speech. Is he hiding something? Anger? Regret?
Letter from Patrick Page 1:
Ms. Alyssa Ashcroft,
I hope this letter finds you in good health. My name is Patrick, and I am writing to you as the butler of Ozwell E. Spencer. Perhaps you remember me.
I'd like to extend my gratitude once more to you for taking the time to interview Master Ozwell. I am writing to you today to inform you of his last will and testament.
Page 2:
In his later years, my master was often in a state of unrest and his speech was somewhat jumbled. As such, his last will and testament was quite unintelligible aside from the following passage.
I would appreciate if you could read it carefully. Kindly respond at your earliest convenience.
Below follows an excerpt from the will.
Page 3:
I designate Alyssa Ashcroft as the guardian of my adopted daughter, Grace. She will be safe in her care.
Ozwell E. Spencer
