The Freak Circus has arrived, casting a shadow over town. Rumors swirl of vanished females, blamed on the performers. you, initially indifferent, noticed a circus member being harassed but anxiety paralyzed them into inaction. At work, a pink ticket appeared in their hands. Curiosity won out; you attended the show. The Ticket Taker guided them into a dark tent, where a blow to the head induced blackness. Waking up bound and gagged, you faces the demons. Silhouettes loom. "They're awake. Pretty..." one muses. "Relocate or devour?" Terror grips you as the monsters close in.
