Abandoned Cabin No so Abandoned? You Won't Believe Who Moved In!

In the woods surrounding Polaris Pass are a few cabins, most of which are abandoned long ago. A couple belong to a few members of the town (most notable being Malina Olcan), but most remain in a state of decay. One specific one that teens loved to tempt each other to go into, has been recently reported to be getting fixed up, and lights are seen on inside at night. Who's the new owner? It's been difficult to track down as special care was taken, through a private firm, to keep their identity secret.

Who can know: Anyone in town.

Site Plot: Sure but dunno what you'd do with it.

Mysterious Grave Robberies Haunt Small Town of Polaris Pass

Polaris Pass, September 13, 2024 — A series of strange grave robberies has left the normally quiet town of Polaris Pass on edge. Over the past month, four graves in the town’s historic cemetery have been disturbed, with at least two bodies missing entirely.

Officer Sylvi Thorsblood, baffled by the lack of evidence, says the break-ins appear calculated. “Whoever is doing this knows what they’re after,” she remarked, noting that no valuables were taken. The robberies have sparked concern among residents, with rumors ranging from cult activity to supernatural involvement.

The cemetery’s caretaker reported strange occurrences, including lights in the nearby woods. While authorities ramp up patrols and install cameras, residents remain fearful, unsure who—or what—is behind the chilling crimes.

“We just want to know why this is happening,” said local resident Heather Collins, whose ancestor’s grave was disturbed.

As the investigation continues, the mystery deepens, leaving the town searching for answers—and hoping the dead will finally rest in peace.

New TikTok’er in Town
Those entertained by DanceTok may have come across a rising star going by the moniker “cowboba”. He slays. Those around town may have also noticed a few familiar landmarks or settings, helping to place him in Polaris Pass, though the internet hasn’t figured that out yet. He tends to operate in sparsely populated areas, rather than in public.

He’s been posting for a couple months, gaining steady followers, but has yet to truly go viral. Most of the dances thus far are line dances with a lot of flair and a little bit of fanservice (the latter, mostly in his recent videos, to positive reception). He’s also beginning to venture into other dance forms, pulling from different styles. Sorry, Shim doesn’t know dance lmao. Most of the dances are custom or mix ups from originals, though he has a couple regular challenges here and there. Music ranges from hot girl pop, to country, to a bit of edgy rock.

Aesthetically, he’s got bisexual hot boy energy. Usually a dark country aesthetic or alt/grunge, most often a mix of the two. He also always obscures his face via tilted cowboy hat, or occasionally another hat or mask/glasses in recent videos. Young, dark skin, super tall and somewhat muscular, jet black hair, and pattered with scars. He seems young, late teens/early twenties perhaps? It’s hard to tell, and he’s been silent on the matter.

Those who know him in person might recognize Ozzy Fowler as the dancer. However, he shifts away all demonic features during these videos. He appears distinctly human, though whether he moves like one is up for debate. He’s good, that much is pretty unanimous.

Who can know: Anyone really. Ask before your characters publicly recognize him though.

Site Plot: Not sure how you’d use it, but sure.

Peculiar Encounters:

The House on Addams Way
The old house up on the hill on Addams Way that was being renovated by [company name here] but now since abandoned has been seeing some activity. Too much activity. There's been reports of strange noises coming from the house at night and sometimes during the day. A few local teens went to mess around in the home only to come out scared and claiming the house was haunted. They reported experiencing “paranormal events” that lead them to flee.

One of the teens captured some blurry footage of an ominous looking dark figure peeking from around the corner. This video has started to circulate around town.

Out Hunting:
For some reason the deer in the woods are moving closer to the town. Some Hikers have reported they feel like they were being stalked while a pair of hunters reported seeing something enter one of the caves nearby.
 
Grave Robberies Continue as Halloween Approaches, Heightening Fear in Polaris Pass

Polaris Pass, October 13, 2024 — With Halloween just around the corner, the mysterious grave robberies that have haunted Polaris Pass show no sign of stopping. Two more graves have been disturbed in recent weeks, bringing the total to six, leaving residents increasingly frightened and frustrated. The latest incidents only add to the growing sense of dread in the once-quiet town, already reeling after one body was replaced with a plastic Halloween skeleton earlier this month.

Sheriff Lucas Harris has set up surveillance at the town’s historic cemetery, but no suspects have been identified. "It’s like someone—or something—is deliberately toying with us," Harris said in a press conference. "These aren’t random acts. They’re intentional, and the timing as Halloween draws near only makes it more disturbing."

The new graves targeted include the resting place of a local war hero and a young woman who died in a tragic accident nearly 50 years ago. Neither grave contained valuables, deepening the mystery of the perpetrator's motive. In one particularly unnerving incident, nearly half of the remains were taken, further fueling speculation of ritualistic or occult activity.

Residents are now in a state of heightened anxiety, with some believing that the timing—just days before Halloween—is no coincidence. Rumors of cults, supernatural forces, and even demonic rituals are spreading like wildfire, fueled by the town’s long history of ghost stories and occult legends.

Local historian Emily Page, who has been researching the town’s darker past, believes the robberies may be linked to an old Polaris Pass legend. "There’s always been talk of a group from the early 1900s that was deeply into the occult—using the dead to try and gain power or communicate with other realms. It was mostly dismissed as folklore, but with these recent events, people are starting to wonder if there’s something more to the stories."

Adding to the fear is the sense of helplessness. Despite the heightened security, whoever is responsible for the grave robbing continues to elude capture. Surveillance cameras placed around the cemetery have recorded strange flickers of light and shadows moving between the headstones, but no clear images have been captured. "It’s as if they know exactly how to avoid detection," Sheriff Harris admitted. Some are calling for spiritual intervention, with local churches planning prayer vigils to ward off any dark forces that might be at play.
As the mystery deepens and fear grows, one question remains on everyone’s mind: what will happen next? And with Halloween looming, Polaris Pass residents are anxiously awaiting the answer.

Ominous News Through the Grapevine

Its been almost two weeks since Halloween, and a handful of different communities around the globe are starting to recognize a new supernatural among them. Ghost like people laden with greenish black energy have been sighted, and their numbers seem to be growing. Some seem to operate mostly on instinct, others are just like normal, and there have even been sightings of these creatures using their ghostly abilities to perform crimes such as robberies or even murders. Thankfully so far the mundane world has only encountered this problem in incredibly rare circumstances, but the more tech literate and ear to the ground types are likely hearing about whatever these creatures are. A french supernatural hub even confronted one of the more mindless ones, discovering that the creatures have a very dangerous venom to their claws. One member of the french hub died in the conflict alongside the creature, who seemed to melt into a black and green oily substance before seeping into the ground at an unusual rate.

Who can know? The more connected members of town, or people with more extensive information networks/global contacts in other supernatural hubs. Those who are likely to interact with the deep web.

Site plot: DM me first.
