This Year's Tale · 2026

Something strange is happening

Posted to the front door · September 2026

Where is Mabel?

It has been more than two years since anyone has seen Mabel roaming the halls of Creekside. No letters. No sightings. No explanation. And when someone disappears from Creekside Manor, the rumors take on a life of their own. Some whisper of an illicit affair. Others insist she fell for a mysterious younger man and left the Manor behind.

In Mabel's absence, the battle for Creekside Manor has begun. Her daughter, Precious, has claimed herself the rightful proprietor. Mabel's sister, Victoria, wants 100% ownership and will do whatever it takes. Unfortunately, Victoria has a weakness. Bonkers. That smooth-talking clown keeps luring her his way, and nobody can tell whether he cares for her or has something far more sinister planned.

And the clowns are multiplying. Banana Split and Ballard are still lurking, but now they have been joined by Higis and Shenanigans, the newest generation of Creekside clowns. They're younger. They're crazier. They've learned a few tricks.

Deep inside, the Doctors are waiting. They'll examine you. They'll diagnose your symptoms. They'll give you the results.

The results will not be in your favor.

Enter Creekside Manor and find out.

"The number of spirits passing through the vortex created by events and the natural geography of this house is nothing short of phenomenal."

Who you'll meet inside

Lady of the house · Missing

Mabel

Hostess of Halloween, Queen of BBQ, wife to nine husbands. Not seen in two years. "It's not pork BBQ, dear. It's just BBQ."

The daughter

Precious

Holds her own powers and the fragments of Mabel's. Considers the Manor hers now and has no intention of giving it up.

The sister

Victoria

Younger, prettier, and sharp-eyed with greed. Wants every brick of Creekside, if Bonkers doesn't distract her first.

The clown king

Bonkers

Smooth talker, deranged laugh, father of Ballard. Claims he slayed the Butcher. No body has ever been found.

The clowns

Banana Split, Ballard, Higis & Shenanigans

Two old hands and two new recruits. They pop out of nowhere and grab at your feet.

The cellar

The Doctors

Examinations, diagnoses, results. Nobody has received good news yet.

Some facts

Among the antiques inside the Manor are the vaudeville trunks of Martin Bergman, a brickmaker who lived for the stage. His great grandson John inherited them, along with wax-cylinder recordings and a 48-star American flag that now hangs in the campground diner.

Martin's wife always blamed his memory of Georgia Fisher for their divorce. Look for the trunks on your way through.

"Having done research in this house for eight years now, I am sure it is far too haunted to be inhabited by any living humans."
