Silas Rowe is Still Clocked In

BLACKTHORN COUNTY · HALLOWEEN 2026
BLACKTHORN MANOR
The screams are included in the ticket price. The disappearances are not.
October 31. The restored nineteenth-century manor is open for business. Somewhere among the smoke machines and shrieking customers, a man with a crooked smile is still performing the job that killed him seven years ago.
Silas Rowe knows what waits beneath the theatrical blood. Tonight, someone wearing an unfamiliar cracked mask has joined the cast, and another visitor may never make it to the exit.
THE MANOR DIRECTORY
Tap the numbered sections. Select a wing, then select a photograph to open its file. Every discovery stays on this page.
01 / EXPLORE THE ESTATE
The map follows the building’s actual connections. A room card opens in place, revealing its photograph, atmosphere and neighboring doors. Greyed-out routes are not exits.

This map shows the attraction's connected routes and hidden wings. Expand a wing below to inspect its rooms.
THE PUBLIC ROUTE · ENTRY TO THE LAST SCARE
The marked visitor path runs from the gate through the old foyer, into the horror circuit and toward its final performance. The courtyard branches from the entrance.

PUBLIC · ADMISSION
Turnstiles click through fog, visitors laugh beneath orange bulbs, and the road to town stretches beyond the old ironwork. It should be the easiest way out.

Medical tableaux, animatronics and working actors fill a maze designed to mislead the senses. Every sudden scream has a perfectly ordinary explanation, until one does not.

The show ends in a theatrical operating room where Silas once played the star. Behind the scenery, the shape of the walls seems older than the set itself.

A broken fountain and weather-worn stones crouch under the trees. The estate remembers celebrations the attraction has never advertised.

THE SERVICE SPINE · STAFF ACCESS ONLY
The staff corridor is the house’s working backbone. Dressing rooms, security, records, attic storage and maintenance all branch from it.

RESTRICTED · BACKSTAGE
A fluorescent spine of lockers, access doors and electrical cabinets runs behind the show. From here the manor becomes a workplace, and its sealed-off history a little harder to ignore.

THE ACTOR WHO NEVER CLOCKED OUT
The best scare actor Blackthorn ever hired still works the halls in a bloodstained shirt. His smile is easy, his jokes terrible, and his attention sharpens whenever he sees a figure the staff never hired.

A tall figure in an old black coat and a cracked mask keeps slipping between the real actors. No one remembers seeing him enter. Those who follow him backstage tend not to come back.

THE SKEPTICAL SCARER
Mara came to Blackthorn to act, not collect strange recordings and secondhand ghost stories. Lately, the things she catches between shifts have been harder to explain away.

THE MAN WHO OWNS THE NIGHT
Blackthorn is a business, and Richard has a packed queue and a reputation to protect. He is far more comfortable discussing ticket sales than missing people.

OPENING 05 · COURTYARD MEMORIAL
Someone Answer the Door
L10 · OLD COURTYARD · QUIET UNEASE ▾

FOR PLAYERS WHO ENJOY A SLOW-BURN SUPERNATURAL MYSTERY
These cards preview the starting scenarios; expanding them does not switch the chat greeting. Choose the corresponding alternative greeting in JanitorAI.
05 / VISITOR ADVISORY
Blackthorn Manor contains theatrical medical horror, jump scares, supernatural violence, disappearances, confinement, death and fire. Friendship, distrust, or a slow-growing closeness with Silas may emerge, but the mystery belongs to no single relationship.
Every visitor enters with their own history. No assigned identity, mandatory romance, or one true ending is advertised.
The doors open at sundown.
