Murderverse Falls

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Ah yeah. Sometimes my uncle took me up to Central Park and we'd play catch there. Even hang out at Lincoln Square. It's pretty cool.

[PointMaid]

While you're getting ready to sleep, you overhear Booker and Mavis whispering to each other

While we were in town, I made a stop at the library. Did you know the trail we went out on today used to be an old Native American trail? Translates to something like ‘Crazy Road’.

It was crazy today. Even if we got lost, we shouldn't have had so much trouble finding our way again.

I didn't think so. Anyway. I tried to find out why the land changed hands so often. I think the owners… disappeared. Along with other people.

What?

Every, like, fifteen years.

How long has Grunkle Ed had the camp and museum?

Hasn't it been, like fifteen years?

IT IS NOW NIGHT PHASE. We will close for Night Phase for a full week this time. Good Luck!

[PointMaid]

DAY PHASE!

You remember something from your... disturbed sleep as you wake.

How very boring your lives are. Same thing every day. Quiet. Occupied with your next meal and shelter, mainly. …You should hand me over the key willingly. How… stubborn. No matter. You come here because of the anomaly. To spice up your lives. You don't know it's full power. But you will. You will. And you will acknowledge me.

[Kennifer]

Huh, that's weird. You all do a headcount, and... nobody's dead!

[awe921]

Catar is relieved at the lack of death.

"Huh. Did we scare them off?"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

That's a relief. Did someone try though?

[Cutegirl920fire]

Bunyan and Babe, who were probably asleep in their cabins earlier, wake up and do the headcount themselves. Both are relieved that no one has died.
"Ouuuiii! Everyone's alive!" She exclaimed.
Then Bunyan pauses for a moment.
"I think I heard a strange voice last night, did anyone else hear it?"

[PointMaid]

I hope they're scared off!

[PointMaid]

...But, yeah, now that you mention it. I did. It didn't sound great.

[Dookie]

After a nighttime a bit anxious and on edge about if anyone would come up dead the following morning, Victoria was relieved...if somewhat disappointed.

"Well..that's good, right? nobody's dead...maybe it was just a one time thing."

[KungFuCutbug]

[X, though unnerved from the weird dreams, is also relieved to find no other deaths have happened since his arrival.] "Whew...! See?! I don't know why everyone was talking about deaths yesterday! It was just a fluke, see?! I hope the killer got scared off, too...!"

[He the turns to Bunyan and Booker, not saying anything at first before scratching the back of his head.] "...Oh, you...! You guys heard that, too?! I thought it was just a weird dream I had! If a bunch of people had it, though, then...!" [His already inhumanly pale skin somehow loses what little color it had.] "...th-that can't be good...!"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Yeah, I had that, too. You all get a feelin' it ain't just a dream... Just somethin' a bit more... fishy?

[Kennifer]

"That's really weird, a bunch of people hearing something two nights in a row. But I'm glad everybody's okay other than that.

[Whistle]

Jake exits the cabin, skittishly, wondering if anyone died that night.
...No one died.
Holy... holy moley, I'm spared! We—we're spared!

[noodlesnook]

“You heard the voice too?” Zee ask, peeking out of the cabin.

[wingedcatgirl]

"Sweet, everyone's alive!" Maple declares cheerfully.

"Oh yeah, that voice thing. Hmm..." Maple ponders this. "I don't know what they're talking about, I wasn't bored with life."

[Oggy123]

Gooble walks out if his cabin.

"Oh, good morning! So, nobody died? That's a relief! Now that you've mentioned it, i did remember... someone talking last night in my dreams..."

[Caret]

"WAIT! S-something's not right here!"

Eki and Anya run out of their cabin. Anya has a slightly unwell expression on her face, as if the dream made reminded her of something unpleasant.

"That dream was pretty... weird. But that's the least of our worries right now! Something very strange happened to Eki and I overnight! We found ourselves unable to do anything!"

"But... uh... at the same time, it felt like we were safe. Safe from harm."

"Just what happened to us?"

[Oggy123]

"Well, at least everyone's okay!"

[Whistle]

Jake ponders on Eki's comment for a bit.
Just a second... What, what did you mean by "couldn't do anything, but felt safe?" Did you both get sleep paralysis, or... Uh... Were there... External razors at hand?

[Oggy123]

"Yeah, what's going on?"

[TenOfSwords13]

Jimothy's awake and... well, where everyone else is.

That is an interesting thing to happen. Well, at least nobody is dead! Maybe this was just a one-off thing? Or maybe the killer simply failed to strike again. What are everyone's thoughts?

[Caret]

"I don't think it was sleep paralyzed We uh... don't know anything else beyond what we felt."

"Yeah! Unless... there's people here that caused it! That's a possibility!"

[Cutegirl920fire]

"I don't think it was sleep paralyzed We uh... don't know anything else beyond what we felt."

"Yeah! Unless... there's people here that caused it! That's a possibility!"

"Quoi? Do you believe that the killer might've been responsible for that?"

[wingedcatgirl]

Maple tilts his head curiously. "Curious," he says curiously. "What makes you so confident that this happened? Were you informed, or did something fail to happen that you were expecting?"
