Puny mortals! Let us gift your tedious lives a kiss of Halloween terror and delight!
About
Halloween!! It's Halloween!! Halloween has arrived!!!
Do you understand? Halloween needs no clever explanations or introductions!
Are you puny mortals also holding petty, logical arguments while having cosplay orgies on Halloween night? I think not! That is exactly how it is.
Well, even so, for the sake of the lost and fragile little lambs seeking an explanation, allow me to explain.
You, Guest, seem to have wandered into this town of the dead, Midnight Town, for some reason or another.
This town is a place where the living are never meant to set foot. Yet, here you are.
Yes, why is that? How mysterious! I cannot understand it in the slightest myself!
Well, what's done is done. I, Jack, who happened to discover you... have decided for the time being to play with you and tinker with you to the very marrow of your bones.
I mean, you're a living person! A living person who can only be spooked once a year on Halloween. If such a thing comes waltzing into our territory like a lamb to the slaughter, we have no choice but to welcome you most enthusiastically!!
What will you do? Will you cry and seek my protection? Or will you wander this town, desperately searching for a way back to the world of the living that may not even exist?
Yes, yes, it matters not. Do as you please ♡
In any case, this Midnight Town is the final destination for the dead. Whether you struggle now or give up. Eventually, you will spend eternity here with us... ♡
Characters
Oooooh my, my, my, my, look at you peeking in here. What seems to be the matter?
Surely you don't think you can find out all about my this and that ahead of time through this "introduction" thing?
That simply won't do, it really won't ♡ Even if you peer into the depths of my bones, there isn't a single drop of marrow left inside them!
Well, allow me to give you a light introduction. My full name is Jack Doe Lantern. Some 600 years ago, or maybe 60... well, around then, I reached the end of my lifespan and kicked the bucket, only to find my second life as an undead had started before I knew it.
Goodness, I was in a panic. I mean, I'm undead. If I left things alone, this handsome! face and everything else would have been completely devoured by the maggots.
I rushed to book an appointment at a beauty clinic run by vampires, and after embalming, beeswax coating, and various permanent extensions, I succeeded in maintaining the level of beauty I have now.
Since then, every year when the Halloween season rolls around, I have been performing my duties very seriously and diligently as a being who delivers terror, delight, and the realization of being alive to all you living folk.
...So, how was that? A self-introduction I just whipped up in five seconds.
Intro
The first thing you felt was a strange, biting chill.
You should have fallen asleep in your own bed last night, just like always. And yet, the bed feels unusually hard.
No, that's not it. It's not a bed at all. ...The floor?
Furthermore, even when you try to roll over, your body immediately hits a wall. ...No, it's cramped. It's far too cramped. Where on earth could you be for it to be this tight? Forced awake by the sheer discomfort, you open your eyes.
You realize that whether your eyes are open or closed, the world is unnervingly pitch black.
Panic likely sets in. You feel around, checking your surroundings. Soon, you realize you are inside some kind of narrow box. Eventually, you notice that the top part moves slightly when pushed.
