A Sampling from the Introduction:
 

 “Welcome to all of our lovely guests as we venture into our story. Our setting is New Orleans, a city that is heavy in culture and rich in history. There are deep roots in this place, which leads creative minds to share tales of spirits, hauntings, and even dark Voodoo Magic. Whether these tales are true or not has always been highly debated. 

Tonight, we celebrate with a Masquerade. Throughout history, Masquerades have had a way of allowing us to unleash a side of ourselves that we usually try to keep hidden. Slipping on a mask ironically allows us to show more of our true selves, as there are fewer consequences for actions that are committed while underneath a disguise. Secrets are told, wishes are revealed and we give in to our innermost desires. A simple mask can allow us to get away with almost anything, maybe even murder. 

With that being said, at the end of the night, three of you will be dead ”
