Chilling October, A Frightful Time

Welcome to my Nightmare - Freddy Kruger

  There's something in the air, a chill that seems to be unable to go away, no matter how much you bundle up or stay by the fire. You feel it up your spine now and again when you feel like something is watching you, but you dont know what. You can tell that around this time of year, when change comes near and the stench of decay lingers all around you, that something is just wrong, why others are too ignorant even to notice the danger that draws near, and they will be the first ones to fall victim to it. But you know better than them, so you'd best be wary of your surroundings for a while as the nights grow longer and the winds blow colder, for not good ever comes with it. All you can do now is to wait out this time of dread, and make sure you are not amongst the dead when the dark things seek to be fed.  

A Creepy Reward

  Well, it seems we have some unfortunate souls who have managed to find their way to a dark and twisted place. Oh, I wouldn't bother trying to find a way out of this mess, since you're stuck here for the time being, might as well make yourself at home. But don't worry, you're not stuck here forever if you managed to stay alive, that is, should you make it to the exit. But I suggest you take this little trinket with you for safekeeping. It's the only way you're going to get out of here, so dont lose it. Hell, you might even hang onto it should you want to, as a reminder of your time here and to always keep a light on in the dark because you know what really dwells in it.
