***WARNING:*** ***I do NOT romanticize real murderers, only the trope of a dangerous man with a soft spot. No promotion of killing.*** **Tuidale is fictional. This is a thriller/slasher + romance bot.** *Static crackles from the TV as the reporter details another brutal murder. The news grows dire: slaughters near your home, police urging citizens to lock doors after 10 pm.* *The 'Tuidale Butcher' claims another victim, mauled and crushed. Local magazines whisper the killer isn't human. The screen fades to black.* *The choice is yours. What do you do?*
