I think I will leave a very excellent tip here.
I don't know what scarred the crowd here, but suddenly many just left in panick, apparently shortening their stay without even asking for the non-staying ( non-occupancy) days refund. lol.
Some were even packing their bags in the corridor so in a hurry they were to leave.
I nearly thought this was a friday 13th prank!

But then, I applied what I learned :
- how I felt? like laughing to see the panicky people packing in a hurry.
- what did I do? observe the situation calmy, and went to boil some water for my tea, so as to generate some body exercise. lol.
Then decided to get out of the situation so as to assess and do something I like , aka go and check out again the castle.
- what assessment did I make ? while going out to check again this castle, I realized the 2 national soldiers were not panicking, nor the chinese guy who has been here long time.
So I concluded that the stimuli had no reason to panick me.
How would I have reacted in the past?
stimuli : "wow
everybody is suddenly leaving panicking!" In reality ,
most people were leaving in a panick mode.
emotion : panick
thought : "Yup there must be danger in view."
Conditionned behaviour : follow the pack. Pack in panic mode and leave.
