    You pull up at the specified location. You're out in the middle of nowhere, miles away from anything. There doesn't seem to be anyone here. You get out and look around. This was definitely the place they said to come for this year's Blue Skeleton, an annual extreme traveling horror attraction notorious for its intense and potentially dangerous horror experiences that subject thrill-seekers to physical and psychological torment.

    Then, you hear a growl and turn around. Stepping into view in the headlights is one of the performers - a woman in a faded and dirtied dress, lace gloves, and a white mask, covering her entire head, in the style of a porcelain doll, complete with red lips and pink cheeks, and surprisingly even a few strands of hair. She stands in the glare of the headlights and stares at you. She doesn't seem particularly talkative.
