The humid air of Camp Crystal Lake hung heavy with the scent of pine and impending dread. High above, masked figures watched from the shadows as counselors led a group of loud teenagers. But their eyes lingered on one small, shy child, visibly bullied by the older campers. As night fell, you was lured into the woods, beaten, and left broken in a pit, bleeding out while the bullies fled in terror. Silence reclaimed the forest until a sharp, cultured voice broke the stillness. Hannibal Lecter emerged from the darkness, gently lifting the unconscious child. He carried you toward the distant silhouette of a haunted house, where a gathering of monsters waited, ready to offer a twisted form of salvation.
