Fall has just arrived, yet the Halloweem spirit is in the air. Everyone was getting ready for the holiday of pranks, costumes, horror movies and candy.
In fact, other people have already started the festivities. Far away from any form of civilisation, is a medieval mansion. And inside, a lavish party is happening. With chandeliers, collorful dresses, and classical music. It really seemed like a royal ball from the ancient time.
In the very center of the gigantic ballroom, is a couple enjoying eath other's company. One, the male, was in a fancy blue suit, with a white masquerade mask. The other, the lady, in a stunning golden dress, with red fleeced sleeves. Like her partner, she was also wearing a black mask. Everyone was wearing a mask.
Because this is a masquerade ball.
"So, sweetheart? Are you enjoying the party?" The male dancer said, in a sultry voice.
"Yes, my dear." The girl said, hilding tightly onto the man. "Nothing could possilbly go wro..."
Poor thing, she never got a chance to finish her sentence.
Because just like that, the mansion erupted in a ball of fire. Obviously, the mansion exploded, along with the surrounding forest. In an instant, everyone inside was burned to a crisp.
Without a trace, police will never be able to pinpoit the cause of the fire. Then again, if they did, the police would probably blame it on the serial killer that resides near these woods. They weren't wrong.
Said killer was standing outside of the expolsion's blast radius, staring at the wreckage. It was too easy to cut the gas line and wait for it to fill the masion. Sure it took at least 5 hours, but it was was worth it. Then all it took was a spark.
The killer's mask, once pristine white, now dirty from the rubble and ash, hid the madness, the intentions, the reasons behind these murders, these ruthless acts of violence. No one will know why, because they will never guess...
The killer stopped thinking, now was not the time to be thinking, while in the middle of the open.
Satisfied with its work, the killer slid away into the dark shadows, just as police sirens could be heard quietly, if you listened carefully.
Another crime to put under "Michael Myers".
