Professor L knows more than he is letting on Ashley. I believe he told you about the wood and that it was lucky because he had never seen the ghosts on purpose so you would know what to do. I think you need to find out more about ol Prof. Daniel is a brat but you being you ..well you will try to help him and I think you are on the right track. But the next time he grabs you throat punch him and then nicely explain to him how to treat women. I know you are scared and unsure but carry on you got this, love.
