MAGNOLIA CREEK, WA. POPULATION: DYING.
welcome to magnolia creek: a logging town hollowed out by time, built on soil that was never clean, over a gate to something older and hungrier than anyone alive can name.
halloween, 1990. the night everything tore. six slayers stood on a football field and faced something that shouldn't exist. six townspeople died. one slayer went through the gate to close it and didn't come back. the remaining five fractured, scattered by grief, guilt, and the particular violence of surviving something nobody else can see. the town buried it. the slayers buried each other.
it's summer 1996, and the signs are back. lights flickering. animals gutted in spirals. children whispering in dead languages. and then, without warning, the sixth slayer returns after six years in the void, wrong in ways that are difficult to name, carrying something back with them that should have stayed below.
the hunger is waking up. the gate is thinning. and the five slayers who spent six years trying to become something other than what they are have to find their way back to each other — and to the one who came back wrong — before the boundary breaks entirely.
the clock is ticking. the tether is sparking. and friendship, it turns out, is harder to raise from the grave than prophecy.
maggot creek is a 21+ supernatural & gothic horror skeleton rp based on tumblr. inspired by buffy the vampire slayer, yellowjackets & it, it explores doomed friendships, small-town decay, survival after the worst has already happened, the dangerous pull of resurrection, and what we owe to each other. what happens when you outlive your own myth? can you ever really escape destiny, or does it only bide its time, waiting for you to come back home?
