ARE YA READY?

[Even with all the commotion, it seems as though a single question has hung over the crowd. Exactly who is responsible for this kidnapping? That single question eventually leads the group to the portrait gallery, where each guest files in and packs the room. Slowly but surely, a strange presence can be felt. The portraits almost look like they’re stretching, and it seems as though they’re moving on their own...

After a few tense moments in complete silent darkness, the lights dim.

You realize there’s a man here. One who wasn’t with you when you came in.

He’s...only barely passing for human. It seems as though he’s falling apart, chunks of skin and bone hanging from his face. His clothes hang from his lanky frame in the same fashion. When he moves about, he audibly clicks and clacks, dragging his leg across the ground in obvious pain.

He smirks, cheekbone exposed, before speaking.]


Au enchanté, Foolish Mortals. A friendly hello from Dr. Facilier, and welcome to Phantom Manor. This home is one steeped in tales of bloodlust, murder and maiming. We’ve brought you here to this house on a haunted hill to continue this tradition, and to appease the terrifying spirit that still lingers here today. The Phantom.

[He smirks, adjusting his hat as he speaks. His shadow moves behind him, disconnected.]

Puttin’ it plainly, friends...you’re here for a blood ritual. Y’all are gonna be stayin’ here for the rest of your lives, unless you manage to kill someone and get away without bein’ caught. Surely some of ya are smart enough to do that.

‘Course, you don’t wanna do it, feel free to stay here for the rest of your horrible lives. But I’ll be sure to make them as miserable as possible till y’all comply.

...Questions?

[Mabel's seen a lot of weird things over her summer in Gravity Falls. She's seen zombies and deamons, dinosaurs and sentient candy masses. She tends to roll with things pretty well, but this... there's something pretty unsettling about this guy. And she can tell the others - her new friends - are freaking out too.

She's sticking pretty close to Stan now as she's sure he won't let her more than a few feet away from him, but when she notices Ariel stumble, she reaches out, just to hold her hand. She's here for you, princess friend!]

[Mabel help grounds Ariel back to reality as she takes her hand. She looks over to her new friend, fighting back tears. They just met and now they were expected to kill each other? This is too much.]

[Mabel hates seeing people sad or hurting. It makes her feel the same way. But Mabel is and will always be a big ray of sunshine, so she tries to smile through it.]

Hey, it's okay! Big demon dummies like this try and pull crud all the time, but things turn out okay! I'm sure we'll be fine!

[considering that apocalypse note in her bio, it seems like she's speaking from experience...]

[Ariel just kinda... gulps and nods slowly in response. She really wants to believe Mabel, but this is so scary. She doesn't like this at all.]
