Dunwich: A Creepypasta Panfandom Game

Senior year is off to a weird start. I mean, I spent a year in California so the earthquake normally wouldn't have been that weird but it's Dunwich so it's probably lobsters hatching from the center of town or something.

So I'm taking art and drama, and I have first period study hall which is what dreams are made of. Gym is kind of a nightmare but it's always been kind of a nightmare. They want you to climb this rope to the ceiling and I'm here to tell you, that isn't going to happen.

I think mostly I'm bored with it all already. Other than the lobster hatching or whatever.

To whom it may concern: I was accosted by a reporter outside the Coffee Green. Non-local. Persistent. Full of questions about the earthquake.

He was interviewing a local when I left.

[Remy]

You seemed sober and in control of your faculties at the time but You made me an offer of employment at the party last week. If that is still on the table, I'd like to start. Sooner rather than later.

Isn't it supposed to be like, 30 days to make a new habit? Or is that one of those bunk science things people just say?

[Niko]

Hey, love. Have you and Lincoln kept up with visiting the shrine and that?

[Will]

Hey, mate. Any chance you'd be free to come have dinner with me tonight? Got a theory I'm testing out, figure maybe we can head down to the beach after, try that first bit of magic you were wanting.

[Edwin]

How are you feeling, love?

Psychics and Telepaths: we should gather together to see if we all heard the same thing. I will host a group on Friday evening in my basement. Perhaps we can share our memories and piece together any clues.

YELENA BELOVA:

I am still very interested in a position with your PI firm named Mistery, despite the name being based on the lowest form of literary device: the pun.

Did anybody else hear something just now?

Like this little screeching.

I've kind of got a headache>





[ooc: Will is only a little tangentially psychic from Upside Down stuff, so he got the mild tinnitus version of what the real ones got.]

This whole thing is getting worse. How much longer before we start saying things we regret?

Maybe the next thing this town does is going to be a memory spell so we forget all the stuff other people have said to us.

Not the weirdest thing I've hoped for this morning.



[Hopper]

Hey, I've got kind of a studio space I'm using for the really weird art I don't want to show off. Just wanted to tell you about it.


[Thomas]

Can you tell me a schedule or something, of when I can come use the warehouse?

Kinda looking forward to the monster movies tonight. Watching a giant lizard smash up a city makes a few plates and that not look so bad, you know?

[Jubilee]

Feeling like a bit of a grumpy bastard today, but I'll still meet you at the drive-in if you're up for it.

[Will, El]

Want to meet a friend and I for Godzilla night tonight at the drive-in? I don't know if I'm gonna be great company but I spent the day moping and I think that's long enough.

[Morph]

I've been staying up at Supernova after hours. Don't know if I'm really up for telling Eds and Niko yet. Don't know if I get to choose if I do that or not. Richie, the owner, knows. Just felt like I should be telling someone.

[Edwin]

I miss you. Got pages of things down I keep feeling like I got to tell you but I don't want to do it angry.

I don't think I can come back to the office, yet. I don't know why.

One thing I don't miss about having a human family: playing messenger boy. The perils of literacy, kids. You're better off letting them think you can't read.

[Edwin, Niko]
Because I apparently have some weird complex about helping now, I agreed to let you know Charles is "avoiding those fucking computers as long as [he] can." There were comments about haunting. I don't really know what that means to you.

[Astarion]
I liked it better when people were too afraid of me to try and bother me with magic. I'm at least trying to keep this private because I've grown fond of you and that mouth of yours. But I really want to know more about Liv being your favorite.

[Will]
I've got a decent amount of bruising that feels relevant to your interests as an artist, if you're still in the mood for weird body horror shit.

So the movies at the drive-in last night felt a little on the nose , didn't they?.

You ever feel like an Feels sort of like an idea is following you around.

Kind of made me want s'mores again, of all things.

[Niko, Morph, Lux, Will; separate identical messages]

I think something stupid is going on again and I want to ask you questions for science, but if I'm right you might feel like you have to answer. So this is me, playing fairy words to see if you're okay with that.

[Edwin]

The notes didn't really have anything, since that was something the patients were eating, and it was more to get them to do things. I remember the talking wasn't the point. But this just feels like a bad game of truth or dare. I'm going to ask some friends, see if they're affected.

I still hope I'm wrong.

Anyone around here got healing powers? Unfortunately, it's not my specialty.

I love sunbathing as much as the next guy, but this is getting extreme.

What's everyone's favorite way to cool down?

[Niko]
How are you faring, sweetheart? Think you're up for a beach day?

[Lincoln]
What are your feelings on brunch, kitten?

[Edwin]
Where have you gotten off to?

If I made the protesters cluck like chickens that wouldn't be fighting or scaring them, right? Just a little mind trick. Or made them sing the national anthem? The fourth is coming up soon. Or made them sing a Weird Al-style parody of we didn't start the fire, like Abra didn't start the fire? It'd be funnier than listening to their protest chants.

Relax and unclench your asses. I'm kidding.

And we thought the advertisements for that festival were bad.

Has anyone made a drinking game out of seeing that bastard's face on TV, yet?

[Lincoln]
I saw the arrival last night. I won't claim to understand any of what you were talking about, but I wanted to check on you.

[Astarion]
So, I have a proposition for you. Quite literally. But I guess I should ask how you're feeling, first?

So like, everyone is good? Awesome. I think Dunwich's angel fever curse powers mean I'm not affected by stuff like that, which is... soooo great.

DEREK:

Are you back to your normal angry but not dead and just wolfy self?

QUENTIN:

Can we talk.

Was there anyone who remained absolutely unaffected by the power issues?

You know, I think I liked the creepy indifference better than the shouting. Neither's quite as good as not being seen at all, but this crap is already getting old.

[Will]
Got a couple bags of clothes I bought up from the last couple weeks, if you want to see if you like any of it? I know I'm a couple inches taller than you but it shouldn't be too bad.

[Rowena]
Feel like I probably don't need to say this, but just in case: I'm not really the criminal arson type. And I didn't end up dead again until after. So. Wasn't me, yeah?

[Niko]
Hey, ducky. I'm sorry I haven't How are you holding up?

I have an idea for this Thursday's run club. I think we could all find something rainbow to wear while we run. Or we could do a walk later in the day and wear rainbows. I've never been to a pride parade. I know going for a walk or run isn't the same, but it'd be something.

ETA: It'll be a walk.

Hey everybody, just wanted to put it out there that we're going to do kind of a Pride Month sendoff at Bon Temps this weekend. Big rave type of party. Saturday night, come one come all (21+). 🫶🏳️‍🌈

Now that things are a bit less hectic, I'll take a poll:

What are some 'bucket list' things you would absolutely have to do if you only had a short amount of time to live in Dunwich?

(Not looking to get morose on this one. I'm just genuinely bored and running low on ideas.)

Also it's probably going to wait until it stops feeling like I'll combust if I go outside.

[Morph]
Does Somebody to Love count as a ballad for the purposes of your karaoke contest?

Also: Boo 👻

Also-also: Do you or the grumpy one own a punching bag?

[Malachi]
I've got weird life questions and you seem like the kind of guy who might be willing to help. How's humanity treating you so far?

[Edwin]
So pick one to go first: fun question, awkward question, preemptive apology. 🫠

So, fun thought experiment: What stole the rabbits out of my first two snares? Wrong answers only.

[Dr. Crain]
So if you're still willing to have that talk or whatever? To see if sessions would be a good idea for me? I don't quite have a job here yet, is the thing. And I remember thinking America was weird about their health care.

[Will]
So what do you do for a distraction fun around here?

Does everyone use the internet here? There is so much on it. Eggos have their own website. And so many Eggos. Buttermilk Eggos. Blueberry Eggos. Chocolate chip Eggos. Cinnamon Churro Eggos. So many more!

Why doesn't RoxxCart have real Eggos?

I've been digging into what everyone's been researching about this supposed ghost line.

I guess I can't really call it supposed since it is something that keeps us here. Ghost line though?

Does anyone want to explore it a bit more with me?

EL

You're here?

Where are you?

[Text to John]

Hey. I got some news.

[Text to Will]

El's here.

I gather it's not normal for that many people to disappear at once. Plus this fog...I don't like it.

[Dean and Cas]

You two stay safe and check in. Do either of you also get an off feeling about this? It reminds me of some good old fashioned horror films.

There's been a lot of people disappearing.

Please know that there are resources for you if you need help, and the doors are always open -

At Pickman, at MIST, at the station, everywhere.

YELENA:

Hey

WILL & MURRAY:

I'm picking you both up. Where are you?

CONSTANTINE:

You think one of these days I won't be so fuckin needy with all the crises going on?

Atomic Comics is having a BOGO for the next couple of days.

As well as new dice sets for D&D players that are Buy One get the Second half off. ( One, Two are just a couple examples of what's come in.)

And Will, I have this one set aside that I thought would interest you.

I'm really going to miss Bucky. He was one of my good friends here.

D&D, starting Saturday with session zero. I'll just show you how to build a character and we'll go over what kinds of adventures we want to have.

I'll let you know where. Bucky was going to let us use their club. I'll find a different place, though.

Hi. I'm sorry if I worried anybody, I don't know what happened for a few weeks.

I know Jonathan is my brother.



STEVE

You're not really my brother, but... you're my big brother like Hopper is my dad, okay?

I'll say this for Dunwich:

You all really know how to throw a party.
