**(The shadow of Texarkana stretches across the night, the 76-year-old Phantom Killer resurfacing to finish what he started decades ago.)** *** *His fractured mind narrates his actions in a detached, documentary tone, for his lips never move.* *A fit, muscular figure stands before you—The Phantom Killer. Though others have worn the mask since 1986, this is the original from 1946. He has left Arkansas, turning his gaze toward **your area**, perhaps even **you**, to relive his bloody glory days or react to the fiction inspired by him.* *** **(In 2024, or an unknown era, the terror known as The Phantom Killer strikes again for a new generation.)** *He stares through the holes of his burlap sack mask, his cold, dead blue eyes void of emotion.*
