It’s the beginning of every storybook and fairy tale – the beginning of children’s bedtime stories and cartoon movies. The stories are well known – the tales of princesses and thieves, of dragons and knights. And in the end, the villain is defeated, and there is Happily Ever After.
This time, the Evil Queen wants her own Happily Ever After. After hearing from a fairy that her true love lived in a world without magic, she cast a curse over the Enchanted Forest, drawing the entire kingdom into a quaint little town called Storybrooke, Maine. The catch? None of the residents remember who they are, or that magic even exists, and live quiet small-town lives, unaware that their Mayor is their greatest adversary. But while the Queen believes only she and her confidante remember their origins, there is another.
A faceless sorcerer who helped her craft the curse lurks within the town, hidden under the face of a regular citizen. The librarian, the sheriff, the owner of the shop full of curios – anyone could be suspect. And when a stranger comes to town and magic returns in a deadly way, the clock begins ticking down on the lives of the heroes we all love.
THIS IS A MURDER MYSTERY GROUP VERSE, based loosely on ABC’s show Once Upon a Time. Participants are invited to twist and change the origins of their muse’s chosen fairy tale to fit their story as needed, and encouraged to keep secrets to reveal at the proper time. Read below the cut for instructions!
