Hootgoblins
In 1955 the police station was overrun by drunken vacationers who attacked their farmhouse neighbor, but no evidence of alien entities were found despite reports from extra-terrestrial beings attacking residents in nearby areas. The incident is now known as "Hopkinsville Goblin" and has become an infamous local cryptid with numerous sightings since that year until today's day when the game was created based on this mysterious event, told through a group of owls hiding out at their abandoned building from vacationers before they moved in themselves. The players must use fear tactics to scare away rowdy guests while remaining hidden and avoid detection by owl law enforcement officers who are seeking evidence that would support any kind of criminal activity the characters engage with on this day, which will be revealed as a combination of alcohol consumption or meteor sightings triggering an aggressive attack from owls in their hiding place.
