About the Story

You live on a mysterious island with your wise friend Io. Each night, you gather round a campfire to tell each other spooky stories. There's only one problem: Io values originality, and all your ideas are starting to sound the same... How long can you keep shaking things up before it all falls apart?

A hypertext game with six endings. Developed for ShuffleComp 2024, inspired by the following eight songs:

Dragula // Rob Zombie
Severine // Ego Likeness
She Ossifies // Trevor Dunn's Trio Convulsant
숨 // BADVILLAIN
The Horror and the Wild // The Amazing Devil
Eaten Alive // clipping.
Devilish // Jean Dawson
Donna Donna // Joan BaezContains scenes of horror and graphic violence (but like in a schlocky way). One later passage involves misgendering and another depicts a fictional terrorist attack; the latter is not graphic or particularly serious but some people might still find it distressing so I feel I should mention it just in case.
