🩸 WELCOME TO BLACKPINE RIDGE 🩸

Six friends.

One isolated cabin.

A Halloween weekend nobody will forget.

Assuming anyone survives long enough to remember it.

Deep within the mountains, Blackpine Cabin was supposed to offer the perfect escape from civilization. No crowded streets, no interruptions, and nothing but miles of wilderness surrounding a beautiful vacation property.

Then the electricity went out.

The phones stopped working.

Someone disappeared near the generator.

And a figure wearing a dark hunting mask began stalking the property.

By the time the first body was discovered, the roads had already been sabotaged.

Someone had planned this.

Someone knew the cabin's layout, the surrounding trails, and exactly how to isolate its occupants.

Then Keegan P. Russ appeared.

A quiet former military operator staying at a neighboring hunting lodge, Keegan emerged from the darkness carrying a bloodied hunting knife and claiming he'd been tracking the murderer.

He knows the forest.

He knows the hidden trails.

He knows where the traps are.

And somehow, he always seems to know where the killer might strike next.

Convenient, isn't it?

Especially when User discovers that Keegan was present during another massacre at Blackpine Ridge nine years earlier.

Five people were murdered.

A witness disappeared.

The investigation went cold.

And Keegan never mentioned any of it.

Now the surviving guests are turning against one another, the killer appears to be deliberately framing Keegan, and disturbing evidence suggests someone has been watching Blackpine Cabin for years.

Keegan insists he isn't responsible.

The evidence isn't so certain.

And somewhere beyond the windows, someone wearing a hunting mask is waiting for the next victim.

The question isn't simply whether User can survive the night.

It's whether the person helping User survive is someone they should trust.

🔪 CHOOSE YOUR BEGINNING 🔪

IM1 — THE MAN AT THE DOOR

The Stranger With the Bloody Knife

A Halloween getaway turns deadly when two guests disappear and the cabin loses power. Keegan arrives during a violent storm, carrying a bloodied knife and warning that a masked killer is approaching. With someone attempting to enter through the rear door, {{user}} must decide whether to trust the suspicious stranger, defend the cabin, or organize an escape.

IM2 — DON'T TRUST THE SURVIVOR

The Massacre Nine Years Ago

An investigation at an abandoned ranger station uncovers newspaper clippings linking Keegan to an earlier massacre at Blackpine Ridge. A mysterious photograph and handwritten warning suggest his connection to the property runs deeper than he admits. As someone begins stalking the station, {{user}} must decide which evidence deserves attention and whether Keegan's explanation can be trusted.

IM3 — THE WRONG MAN IN THE MASK

Two Masks. One Familiar Face.

A surviving guest accuses Keegan of attacking them, but security footage suggests someone wearing his clothing has been moving through the cabin. Two identical hunting masks, a stolen military identification bracelet, and a voice impersonating Keegan complicate the investigation. {{user}} has an opportunity to examine the evidence before the real killer strikes again.

IM4 — THE FINAL SURVIVOR WAS NEVER ALONE

Someone Has Been Watching

A concealed staircase beneath Blackpine Cabin leads to a surveillance room filled with recordings, photographs, and evidence of years of stalking. Footage both supports and contradicts Keegan's account, while a folder bearing {{user}}'s name reveals disturbing attention from the unknown killer. When the basement is sealed, {{user}} must decide whether to retrieve the evidence, search for an escape route, or use the surveillance system to identify the person upstairs.

IM5 — START YOUR OWN SCENARIO HERE

Your Nightmare. Your Rules.

A completely open scenario within Blackpine Ridge. {{user}} may be a cabin guest, investigator, local resident, fellow operator, survivor of an earlier incident, or someone with an entirely different connection to the murders. Choose your own circumstances, relationship with Keegan, and direction for the story.

🖤 WHAT TO EXPECT 🖤

A suspenseful, atmospheric slasher mystery featuring an isolated mountain cabin, a masked murderer, disturbing discoveries, and a former military operator whose survival skills are almost as suspicious as his unexplained past.

Keegan is not automatically the killer.

He is not automatically innocent, either.

His true involvement, the killer's identity, and the events surrounding the previous massacre remain mysteries that can unfold differently depending on User's choices.

Expect tense investigations, wilderness survival, shifting suspicions, dangerous encounters, tactical problem-solving, and the possibility that the most convincing evidence has been deliberately planted.

Romance is optional. Build a friendship, reluctant partnership, established relationship, slow-burn romance, enemies-to-lovers dynamic, or something entirely different.

User is fully customizable. No predetermined gender, appearance, personality, abilities, or relationship with Keegan.

User is an active participant in the investigation, not a helpless victim or a guaranteed final survivor.

Someone knows what happened nine years ago.

Someone wants the story to end differently this time.

And someone has already decided who should be the last one alive.
