Halloween Mafia - Orista Manor - GAME OVER!!!! (Page 63)

This was all concocted on Friday 13 of July, 2007, using fake news reports, unproven theories by scientists with no names that probably don’t exist, my own twisted imagination, and a magic 8-ball.  Any inconsistencies found and reported will be ignored.

It is the day before All Hallows Eve, or Halloween as some have named it, in the village of Orista.  As you walk along Shadow Avenue, you look across the street at the huge house, the Manor.  Everyone knew the story of the Manor.  The story went that a family of five had lived there.  A husband, wife, two sons, and a daughter. The details were vague, but after eighteen years of living in the Manor, the family died.  That was when a cult took charge of the house.  They called themselves the “Prophets”.  It didn't take long for the village to gather in a mob and rush into the Manor, slaughtering the Prophets to the very last.  That day was called the Cleansing of Orista, also known as Halloween.  It was said that the Prophets’ ghosts came out on Halloween, killing anyone to enter the Manor. 

 

You shake your head, bringing yourself back to the now.  That is a ghost story to scare children.  But however much you tell yourself that, you can't help but keep your distance from the Manor.  No one walked on that street, no one sane in any case.  The last person who did disappeared without a trace.  But you are getting carried away.  Today is the day before Halloween.  And you are going to the party of your life!

 

As you enter the house where the party is taking place you are surprised at how they made it seem as if it was night outside.  Smiling you weave your way through the throng of people.  Some people, like you, wear a costume, but most people are wearing their casual clothes.  "Party poopers." you think to yourself.  You soon find your friends and they all greet you happily.  The rest of the day is lost in a haze.

 

When you finally catch hold of reality you find yourself standing with all your friends in front of the Manor house.  Damien Sage(DSage, the Mod) is speaking.

 

"Okay, here's the deal.  We're all going to spend the night here in the Manor."

 

There is a hush.  You find yourself thinking that Damien must be crazy.  Hadn't he heard the stories?  Of course he had, he had grown up with you.

 

"At midnight it will be the 13th Anniversary of the Cleansing of Orista." Damien continues.  He looks back at everyone.  "Don't tell me you're scared." He mocks.

 

You look at the rest of your friends as they all, one after the other, shake their heads no.  You weren't about to be a coward in front of all your friends, so you shake your head as well.

 

"Good.  Then it's settled.”

 

You all enter the Manor; you feel your heart racing as you approach the entrance.  It's so dusty you can see everyone’s footprints.  You slowly walk in and look up.  You gasp in awe.  The ceiling is higher than it looked to be from outside.  And hanging like revenant from the center of the ceiling is the biggest chandelier you have ever seen.

 

Damien flicks a switch and lights jump to life.  You can't believe they still work after all these years.  You notice your friends all looking around, just as in awe as you.  And in fear too.  This is starting to get just a little too creepy.

 

Damien goes to the foot of the spiraling staircase that leads to the upper floors (Yes, multiple floors).  "Everyone, our rooms are up here."

 

"You seem to know a lot about this place."  Seth Larkschild says with curiosity.

 

"Quite the observer, there, Seth."  Damien nudges Seth in the ribs.  "I came here last week and checked out every room.  I might end up living here myself."  He ignores the stares you and the others give him, or he just didn't notice.

 

You all climb the stairs, following Damien.  You reach the second floor and are not surprised to find it just as dusty as the Entrance Hall.

 

"Couldn't you have dusted the place?" Seth asks, coughing into his shoulder.

 

"That wouldn't have added to the Halloween effect, now would it?"  Damien turns to you all, a small smile curving his lips as he winks.

 

The second floor is nothing but a long corridor that stretches from one end of the Manor to the other.  You look back at the spiral stairs, noticing that the stairs continue upwards.  "What's up there?" You ask.

 

"The Library, the family bedrooms, and that type of stuff."  Damien answers with half a mind.

 

Damien shows you all to your rooms which are clean, thank the Light!  After changing out of your costume you take a little nap.  When you awake, your watch says "8:54 pm". You decide to find Seth and ask him how he feels about this.  You walk out of your room and head toward Seth’s.  The fact that Seth’s door was wide open never struck you as odd, at least, not until you entered the room.  All you can do is stare at Seth’s body, lying peacefully on his bed, a piece of paper pinned to his chest by an eagle-headed dagger.  From the looks of the room there was no struggle.  That makes one thing clear to you: Seth knew the killer...or killers.

 

Your eyes focus and you notice Seth head lying at his feet.  You fall to your knees in shock.  You barely notice the scream behind you, or Damien pushing past you for that matter.

 

Damien doesn't bother pulling out the knife, he just rips the paper away and looks at it.  "A note." is all he says before reading it.

 

   Residents of Orista Manor,

   The 13th Anniversary of the Cleansing of Orista is the rise of the Prophets.

 

   "The gods visit the sins of the fathers upon the children."

 

 

Everyone is in the room and looking at each other in suspicion.  There are so many footprints going back and forth in front of Seth’s room that it is impossible to follow any to the culprit or culprits.  Plainly your friends are not who you thought they were.  You taste bile in your mouth.  Suddenly it hits you, and you wouldn't be surprised to see your shoes come out of your mouth. You wipe your mouth and slowly stand on legs that have turned to jelly.

 

"Well, I'm all for leaving now!" Damien says, breaking the silence like glass.  Everyone nods.  You all but run down the stairs with the others.  You break through everyone else to get at the door first.  You run at it with all your strength to get out faster.  You are in great pain as you slam into the door and bounce off.  Winded, you are vaguely aware of Damien kicking the door.  But it seems as nothing is going to budge it.  Someone throws a chair at a window, but the chair bounces back, making the person jump back out of the way.  The window is unharmed.

 

It seems that the stories were true, this Manor is haunted.  The thought of sleep is banished.  All you want to do now is get out of this cursed place!  Everyone is now gathered in the Entrance Hall, huddled in a group, each one with a look of shock and horror painting their faces.  But which ones truly are the paintings?  The entire Manor seems to have grown darker…

I'd rather we not kill FDM till we think she's evil or not. She seems to have impeccable instincts for finding the evils.

 

my aiel game: dsage, and sboyd right off the bat

Ilgross "death in Artic": Wes (serial killer) and Alys (Godfather) right off the bat

Well this was a pleasant surprise. For some reason I didn't think the game was starting until the 22nd, but reguardless I'm excited.

 

*pants DPR's shoulder comfortingly* Maybe you'll scare the real ghosts?

We all know the stats. We'd rather kill off the evils right away, but we also know it's statistically unlikely.

 

It wasn't supposed to start until the 22nd. A day early isn't bad.

Alright, I've been asked this question a couple times, so I'll try and make it simple.

 

Full Hour = Day in normal Mafia games

Half Hour = Night in normal Mafia games

 

9:00 in the game = a Full Hour period

9:30 in the game = a Half Hour period

 

Hope that clears that up.
