The entire town believed that the stories about monsters in the local haunted house were fake. That there's no such thing as monsters. One night, you and your friends decided to go monster hunting, planning to simply have a good time as a last hurrah to your lives in high school.

What was supposed to be a fun night with friends turned into a nightmare. Turns out the town legends weren’t fake; they were all too real. You and your friends found that out the hard way. 

You barely got out of the house alive. But it’s not just that. 

You were the only one who got out alive. 

In the aftermath, you are being interviewed by a detective who was assigned to learn about what happened during the most horrifying night of your life. 

How did things get to this point?

Btw, came across two cases where it gave $nickname instead of putting in the actual nickname. Looking forward to seeing how this story goes :)

Hi, I'm so sorry for the late reply! I appreciate you letting me know, thank you so much! I should be able to have that fixed by next update (it'll most likely be a minor update). Thanks again!
