### Summary
The central mystery of Hotel Pharus has violently escalated into a grim murder plot, with the manager, Grayson, confessing to having personally witnessed a cold-blooded execution within the hotel's secret passageways. His testimony reveals a horrific system where unwanted "bastard children," abandoned by their families, were systematically murdered with a gun before their bodies were disposed of in the ocean. This shocking revelation confirms the hotel's dark history, but Grayson's credibility is immediately called into question. Despite witnessing the entire event, he claims to only know "bits and pieces," a blatant lie that positions him as a deeply suspicious and unreliable narrator. His unnervingly calm demeanor while recounting the murder has intensified this distrust, leading to speculation that he was more involved than he admits. This confession also darkens the cloud over Daniel's late father, largely dispelling the prior hope that he built the tunnels for escape and instead implicating him directly in the serial killings. The narrative has now fully shed its initial ghost-story premise, solidifying into a dark psychological thriller centered on the unraveling of a family's murderous legacy.
