Vampire Murder Mystery

Murder at the Red Haven Cottage

In the last three weeks, vampires around the world have been murdered at an alarming rate in a seemingly random fashion by a fellow vampire known only as the global vampire slayer. Stat LeBaourt, the leader of the International Vampire Coven (IV-C) and the most powerful vampire in the world, called an emergency meeting of vampires at the Red Haven Cottage in Three Forks, Colorado. You’ve been summoned and you will be there. This is how your story begins.

Members of the International Vampire Coven – I have scheduled an emergency meeting at the Red Haven Cottage in Three Forks, Colorado. As most of us have heard recently vampires are being slain around the globe at an alarming rate and our society is dwindling. This is no ordinary vampire hunter. I strongly believe it is one of us… Beware during your journey. Trust nobody and travel alone if you know what is good for you. – Stat LeBacourt
