The tale begins at a home a in the night, looking like from the movie "The Exorcist"
Inside the home, two priests chant 'may the power Christ compel you!' over and over to exorcise a possessed girl. The girl's bed began floating from the ground – her laughter can be heard all in the room. The girl's worried mother was down stairs, crying from seeing her little girl turn into a creature.
Speaking of the movie, A back view of a man came up, but this guy first stopped while striking his cane to the ground as he admired the house. "Hmmm, so this is where that scamp escaped to"
The mother paused her wails after hearing knocking come from her front door. She shook her hand as she went to open to meet a tall thin man wearing strange attire, a yellow tux coat (purple skull button on it) over his red sown shirt closed and a weird black top hat with legs ( also it had a purple stripe, shut eyes and a the brim of it had sharp teeth – looking like it was an animal) wore grey pants, and had on red gloves. As if the thing he's wearing weird enough - he had an extremely pale head as if he's dead – this guy gave a sharp teeth grin. "Good evening madam! "
She felt afraid at this guest and began stepping back. She was about to shut the door, the man stepped in.
"Let me introduce myself," the strange man say as he spun his black cane in hand before he pierces the ground hard , a loud echo of a hard thud filled the room "Pleased to meet you. My name's John Poe! You can also call me 'Jack the Ripper'!
She yelps "Eep!"
waved his hand to calm her as he explained "No -no –no, that gut's dead so He's not using that name anymore! Any way I could help your daughter! So please lead the way!"
he lady was trembling also screamed again as the eye opened and looked at her, the hat growled at her "Ah! A-alright!" she rushed to the stairs and up them.
Raising an eyebrow, John followed the mom, not n rush as her. He met with her at a closed door. I-In "H-here! " she cowardly opens he bedroom door o be greeted by the sigh of the priests holding their crosses aimed at the possessed girl, who's head was spanning as fire spewed out her eyes. The mom gasped.
John on the other hand John was delighted and had a smile across his face, like a kid in a candy sore. "Oooh fireworks!"
One of the priests shouted as he looked back "What're you doing, I said you need to keep out of here until we're finished!"
"I-I'm sorry it's just-"
She was interrupted b[y John wrapped his arm around the mother's neck "C'mon miss mom!" he rushed in with her before the slammed shut behind them, also locking.
The mother fell to her knees by being so horrified, she used beads of the rosery she was wearing to pray.
John just rolled his eyes and just stepped over to a near by desk chair to sit and lean back on, where all just took a pause to watch John Poe. Johnny waved his back hand at them "Don't mind me, keep going!" which result of the three giving a shrug before event continues.
The girl began floating up and laughed as the priests splashed holy water on her. Paper started flying around her like planet Saturn's ring.
While one preist kept throwing holy on her, the other priest was attempting to place his cross on her forehead, ignoring the fire shooting from her eyes. The priest got pushed back from by a force the girl
Letting this guy in was a waste! the mother thought as she looked over at the sight of John still leaning back on the chair and eating a chocolate bar. "Aren't you going to help?!"
Once he finished the chocolate, he crumbles up the wrapper before he tossed it over his shoulder. John leaned forward and stood. "That was a good show, but I've seen better!" he walked over to the possessed girl – she was standing on her bed.
Once John got close, the girl growled at him as he approached. There was not a sense of fear emanating from Jack the ripper – John's face was dead pan.
She smacks his face firmly, his head began to turn a 360. The eyes of his hat open and the brim closed, chomped his head. The mother screamed and the priests just stared as they froze in fear. John's body had its fists on his hips.
The body lifted the hat creature, showing head was clean cut off, shocking the others. The body shove it's fist through the mouth and yank sit's tongue and guts out, making the hat creature inside out, to let John's head slip off the tongue and back on his current body, only to have his head on backwards. He lets the tongue go and it with inside-o guts to snap back to form the creature back to how it was.
"That wasn't nice! Scaring Abby awake like that!" John shouts as he puts his hat back on his reversed head. "Oh! Parden me!" He grabbed his head and twists it back to how it was naturally.
"A-another Satan spawn!" one of the priests shouted as he points at both John.
"Hm? Oh no, I'm not on of Stan's kids! This one though!" Jack points at the girl.
"Grr !" She growled as the widow and the bed began to crack. Papers still orbiting around her. |Rahh!" she yells as the window and bed shatter - pieces of glass and sharp wood splinters, from the wooden bed, now took the paper's place in the orbiting- "Die!" she orders. The glass and splinters paused their orbiting and flew at all three attempting to pierce them.
The humans screamed from fright at first. "this wasn't part of the deal!" The mother shouted before shutting her eyes preparing for death, the priests squinted from fear as well.
When the feeling of pain didn't hit, the mother opened her eyes, to end up seeing herself with a piece of glass close to her eye, almost hitting "ah!" she yelped before she moved back from the shard. Once the two priests did as well. all three end up spying John – with impaled splinters and glass shards in him and his hands are both impale in the possessed girl.
To more of their surprise the demonic girl and John were still alive "Damn you!" she cursed
"You need some punishment!" Jack the ripper shouts as he pulled his arms back as he ripped out an imp of a creature from the possessed girl as her body fell back on the broken bed, knocking her out but not for long. All of the sharp objects drop from mid air.
The girl awakens and she was all fine – the skin was not pale and no scars, not even from where John shoved his hands into her to rip the demon out - she touched her own face , in disbelief. The other humans were amazed as well, the mother was about to run up and hug her daughter, but was halted by the imp pointing at her.
"You! All three of you , allowed me to possess the girl's body for my freedom! In exchange I'd convince Satan to give mercy when you die! But You let this guy in!" it points it's thumb at John.
The girl grew angry at this and yelled at the three "Bullshit liars! You Locked me in here for nothing!" as she was yelling at them, John shackled and chain leashed the imp creature before he dragged his prisoner away with him out of her room, without notice.
Back out in the damp dark street.
John was pulling the chain leash of his prisoner as he pulled out glass and splinters from his body, tossing them away "seriously, You did a number on this body, making swiss cheese out of me! It'll be a while 'til I find a new corpse replacement!" John shook his head not mentioning the multiple holes his clothing had since he knew someone who can sew. The imp couldn't speak, since John muzzled it.
John tugs the chain leash "C'mon, lets go! Bruno's hungry!"
"Wait!"
John and his imp prisoner looked back to see the not possessed girl again, she panted her breathing from running to there.
"P-please! Where ever the place you're going, Please take me!"
John shoos her away with his gloved hand "Go home missy! Human's can't join where we're going!"
"Aren't you Human too ?!"
"Girl, look at us!" he referring to himself and the imp "Do we look human?!"
"D-demons?! A priest said you both are!"
"Impy over here is! Not me though! Their isn't any known fact as to what I am! Even I don't have a clue! but fuck it all! Any way go back home ,girly!"
"I can't go to that liar's den! Let me go with you please!" she begged while giving puppy dog eyes as she went on her knees
"Hmmm, tell you what I'll give you a taste of how it is first to see if you're sure!" John says before crouched down and placed his palm on her head.
Images of demons performing in a circus and feasting on living/screaming people and other demons flash through her head. As she heled her head as she screamed.
The images stopped after John removed his hand off her, who was on her fours whle panting while giving a cold sweat. "You sure you want to come along?"
"*pant- pant* was that hell?!"
"Don't be silly! That was my circus in limbo! Hell just provides the food for the entertainers I find! You sure you want to go, girly?"
She didn't answer as she kept breathing heavily. While comparing those images with her memories, from good memories to bad. Her teeth gritted from anger.
Because she didn't answer, John got his answer "Right!" he stood and tugs the Imp's leash "C'mon then!" he spun his cane to open a portal, like Dr. Strange. Just before they enter, John halts as he felt a tug of his coat "Hm?" He looked back to see the girl was tugging his coat. "What now, girly?"
"... I still want to join you! I don't want to keep living here! No matter what I'll see there! Besides here, has people that are infuriating and it is a shame they're still around!"
John simply just stared at her first. He rolled his eyes as he agreed "Alright, but first - !" He pierced the end of his cane to her forehead, as she squinted.
Hearing something collapsing behind her, catching her attention. The girl opened her eyes as she looked back. What she saw really shocked her and gasped. What she saw was her own body on her own body "i-is that-"
"That's right, missy that's you! Where we're going human body can't come!" he explained and low mumbled a small part quickly "It could be a rare delicacy though."
"anyway, let's head out, girly!" he pulled the Imp's chain to follow him through the portal.
She looked back at her body and the way back home, curled her lip as she turned hew head back and shouts "My name's Elizabeth by the way!" Elizabeth runs through the portal before closed.
A chubby orange faced man (gee I wonder who this could be w) drops in to area where darkness is all around – a spot light is over him. At first, he was eating a bucket of fried chicken – but once he blinked to suddenly find himself somewhere else. He looked all at the empty void "what the hell?! where am I?!-" a large devilish looking snake beast slithered around as it hissed, frightening the pathetic person and ran (or just waddle like a penguin) away
as he fled, the tubby man said out "is this hell?! Why?! I didn't do anything wrong! Um !" a steel wired fence sprouted from the ground and blocked his path and instantly his mouth was sipped shut "Mmm!? " he moaned as he tries pull open his mouth. The hissing grew louder as the large serpent came closer "Mmm! Mmm!" he hummed in a panic.
Up comes John Poe "first of all shut up!" John ordered as he snapped his fingers, causing the orange man's mouth to fall off – the now mouthless man gestures to scream in horror "Second This isn't hell, just like Hitler, dealing with you would be too easy and obvious! So he agreed for this test I suggested to him and Lucy! (Lucifer) That many of my circus beasts begged to have fresh meals!" John mentions as he scratches under the snake's jaw. How rude of me, introductions are in order, Name's John Poe!" he says as he snapped his fingers "But you might remember me as the other 'Jack the ripper!' "
the giant live serpent circled it's body around the tubby man, closing in its head as it hissed.
Fear was on the mouthless man's face as his demise was in front of him.
"Oops, I forgot" says John before he flings the fat man's mouth back on.
"Ahhhh!" the middle age fan man screamed and clenched his eyelids shut as the giant snake quickly struck at him, the poisonous fangs of the leviathan caused the orange man to go numb.
"W-what's happened to me?!" the tubby man asked in a panic
"Paralyzed you, obviously!and He just loves the sound of his meal screaming as he feasts on them!" So you can still feel! "John explained.
The leviathan hissed right before it closed it's jaws over the screaming orange face man's head. twisting it, the tubby man's head was forced to turned a full one-eighty!
"Ahhh! W-why am I not dead!" the orange man screamed as he asked! Then screamed more once The snake then pulled his head, stretching the neck. His skin started ripping. The guy could only scream in pain from the torture the snake was giving. Blood began squirting from each head orifice.
the head popped off and the snaked tossed it in the air - red fluid flew all over and painted the ground while the rest fell into the dark abyss - the snake caught the head with it's mouth, before devouring the now headless corpse.
he speaks to the snake "So how's the taste?"
Even though it's mouth doesn't move, so it spoked telepathically – deep demonic voice. "Pretty good! His face made it taste like Cheeto powder was on top! *burp* "
After the belch, the same orange guy fell from the ceiling in a cadge - mot a wound on him – he began to pat all of own body, the wounds were gone. "W-what I'm fine again!" the agony he felt before, was now all gone. Tubby hit the cadge he was trapped in. "Let me out! Get me out of this Hel!" a olud thunderous boom silenced chubby man.
"thank you John! *ahem* John should've told you already, this isn't hell!" shouted a young woman with John behind - the loud boom came from John striking the ground- lights began to illuminated and revile the inside of the circus.
"I still have to say thanks any way! Fresh meat is a great meal for my entertainers! "John says as he gave a thumbs up to the girl "Good suggestion, Girly!"
At first, she puts her fists on her hips – being arrogant – that emotion was cut short to anger "I told you, my name is Elizabeth!" the giant snake made it's return by hissing behind Elizabeth, enforcing her anger!
Cutting to a view over a large prison, in the human world. zooming in to a view of the prison warden – a thick gray mustache, mid-age, your choice of his belly size. Once he enters his office, he was greeted by the sight of Elizabeth in a skimpy police girl outfit, sitting on his desk with legs crossed and petting a black creature
" What the? What're you!?-" the warden chief was silenced once this police girl flipped her legs to the other side - slight glimpse of her pantie – now her other leg was on top.
Falling to his knees as she waved her foot to order the old chief to go down. He thought she was a dominatrix his friends ordered – they knew that he is in to that – he was about to kiss her foot.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you!" said a man's voice, getting the warden's attention – he looked up and past the girl to the back of a seat behind her and from the other side was a person, whose hand was out with a wagging finger "Even if it's been years since she died! Elizabeth's still a minor!" the back creature hopped out of Elizabeth's lap, over to the other side of the chair.
"and besides-" she up kicks the chief's chin – the old man is forced to fling on to his back! "I'd never give myself up to you!"
The guy rubbed his jaw "son of a -"
Rising up from the chair, first was the sight of the tail and butt of the creature Elizabith was petting , followed by the sight of it's mouth stretched open to be a fanged hat brim over a dead paled head – a tall man. "this looks like a good spot!" the tall man says as he turned around (yeah it's John Poe) "Let's start!" John tapped the ground with his cane.
The ground began shaking like it was an earthquake – many of the prisoners outside were scared of why there was one happening since the area where the prison is, was not reported to have an earthquake - the concrete ground began cracking a lot because something big and colorful was sprouting out from the ground. It was revealed to be a giant circus tent and the circus theme began playing.
A zoom in of the cane tabbing the floor again.
(from out nowhere) a medieval yoke, cuffed the chief and collars his neck "W-what 's going on!?" the now prisoner shout/asks. Before being yanked..
It was Elizabeth that used a chain to yank the old chief to order him "Shush!"
John tells the prisoner warden "congrats! Your prison is a great spot to start my purgatory circus! " throws confetti in air "Oh and don't worry! you won't be the only a meal for my entertainers and beasts!" Jack further explained.
Hearing he was going to be eaten, the chief grew pale, almost as pale as Jack the ripper's (John Poe) dead face/head
They go out, Elizabeth is yanking the chief like a dog.
Old chief grits his teeth at each forceful yank, annoyed. His blood pressure began to rise as soon he sees some prisoner were being set free "Da' hell you doin?! Ah!" he asked before getting yanked.
" Oh I'm just letting go the ones who are the truly innocent! In replace are the true criminals!" John says before looking at the wrist watch his current corpse body still has "which- ah! Are here!" he shouts before there were sounds of many people falling from the sky to the circus tent (to the inside).
The chief knows or seen some of those people before "What are you people?! Ah!-" he got pulled by Elizabeth, to follow. After asking John and Elizabeth that question.
Inside the tent, all of the fallen where now in cadges cried for freedom!
"This is horrible!" shouted the chief
"You should be used to see people in cadges. Now hurry up!" Elizabeth responded before ordering him
They head behind a curtain, there they see more people in medieval yokes like the one the warden is in – being lead by imps who has each on, in chains hooked on each yoke – to a creature. There the creature each creature devores each person alive - screams, gore, blood was happening all over in the backroom. On the other side of the curtain, the people didn't hear the commotion, noticing what will come to them.
The warden breathed heavy as soon he hears from John. "You're up next!" John gestures his thumb, like an hitch hiker. Pointing to the snake beast, the same from the beginning of this tale.
Elizabeth has to pull the chain/leash hard since the warden was to terrified of his latest demise.
The snake beast hissed as the warden was forced closer. "hmm more fresh meat!" it mentally says as it slithered it's tonged all over its meal, sniffing/tasting the warden.
Squinting, the now warden found the slimy tongue sickening as it lathered on his face. After that, he screams in agony as the snake beast quickly began to feast on the Warden meal.
All was dark now to the warden after he felt all of that agonizing pain from the multiple fang bites. "hey wake up! You're drooling!"
The Warden opened hi eye to be greeted by such a sight – the same chubby man from the beginning - "P-president T- wait what's going on?! Didn't I just die!?" he looked around to find himself in a cadge in mid air – still in the circus tent, and blood curdling screams could be heard "Is this hell?!"
John is no where to be seen but heard to explain to the many individuals that arrived to be meals "If this was hell, then you wouldn't have this break! You would constantly feel pain without a pause!" He expained "Now, it's time for the show!"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
An audience of the show arrives – a space from the demon crowd from humans for obvious reasons.
With a cane, Out comes Elzabeth - white face make-up, fish-net stalking that has bright red small apples that hung off them, long black ponytail, grey doll top, and a skirt that pops like a goth doll - she used a mic "ladies, gentlemen, and whatever else you are! Welcome to the purgatory circus!" she shouted before she threw the cane in a spinning motion in the air – audience couldn't help but follow the sight of that spinning object.
Before it hit the ground, a floating white gloved hand catches it before twirling the cane, revealing it to be Jack the ripper (John). After he's shown, fire wok sparks shoot from the ground before the whole inside lit up. John lands on the ground then gestures to present the demonic clowns first, one is juggling heads live heads – it was good they didn't have stomachs so the heads didn't puke.
Trapeze artist gremlin swing on an arm bone with rope lines tied to it while another demon performer balanced itself on a rolling balloon ball as it held a pole with weights on each end.
Believe it or not, there was multiple winged angels – thier wings were held down with belts- as they perform acrobats.
One acrobat shot themself out of a cannon before other canons shot orbs of fire at them, fire chasin at the acrobat but they're able to evade the flames.
-in the back-
Eizabeth stroke/pets the snake "You're up next soon, set?" she asked
The snake beast responds "I'm anxious!"
They hear from one of the cadges above "Hey little girl!" getting the snake and Elizabeth's attention "will you help get me out of here?! I know this great place in New Jersey you can come with me to!"
In response, Elizabeth smirked "Okay ghoulie I'll let you out first!"
The person that begged for freedom gasped the bars to pull himself closer – his bald head was exposed in light – dark coloring leaked from the sides of his head from sweat. - "Thank you!" The man says, filled with hope that he will be leaving this place.. That joy on his face began to drop after he hears John speech for the next up coming show while the cadge moved towards the curtain "W-wait but you said-!"
"I did say you out *first!*" she replied while giving a wink and sticking out her tongue.
The cadge now out the bald old man saw first one of the *attractions* a tubby man wearing a teddy bear costume and is fully frozen in ice, but still is conscious and feels the cold. Since he's frozen solid , he couldn't let any of his screams. The eyes were still able to dart around.
The cadge stops and lowers, before it's door opens. Thinking this meant he is now free to go, the bald man stepped out of the cadge and was about to run, but he stopped in his tracks as soon as he hears John speaking to the cheering audience
"Now's here's a great treat for you!" John announced before curtains behind him opened up, the curled up giant snake beast is now the next attraction to be exposed. The crowed did cheer at first, even louder once it uncurled and risen it's head, flicking it's tongue as it hissed
.
The old man freaked as the snake slithered near. There truly no where to flee now as the leviathan flopped it's large body around the black sweat old man. He caught notice of Elizabeth sitting nonchalant on the beast's slithery body.
Playfully she waved "Bye-bye!"
The old man's was in fear as to what she meant of doing that even more once the leviathan owered it's head behind it's new prey, smelling the air with it's togue.
It said out, "Mmm smells scrumptious with that barbeque sauce!" of course the giant serpent meat the dark goo leaking from the sides of the old man's head.
The old guy dropped on to his back-side as he saw his reflection on the snake's big eyes. The audience cheered.
No more teasing, the snake struck at the man as he screamed in agony/fear. First it was his arms that was stuck then legs. Finally the snake swallowed the rest of the old stump. That wasn't it's only target.
Next up was the frozen teddy. As soon as the snake gotten close, the frozen man could only widen his eyes in fear. Tearing, only ice cubes were the only things that came out.
Instead of a quick strike to feast on the frozen man, the snake beast flicked it's tail to break off an arm in a snap.
Of course the frozen guy did the feel his limb being ripped off, but couldn't scream.
the snake was done play with it's ice treat and opened it's mouth wide planning to swallow the whole frozen teddy bear in their mouth.
the frozen one's eye went wide in fear
The snake eats bear ice pop. Crunching him. The snake could hear /feel the frozen guy's screaming now before the snake swallows- The audience roared in glee.
With his cane, John Playfully wacked at some ice shard that flew out, like playing baseball. After that, John used his cane to stomp the ground. "Every one, that's the show for today! Thank you!" after he bowed while thanking the audience, Abbey (the demon hat on John's head) shut her mouth (the brim with fangs) to eat his head. The stage lights cut off, the performance ring was now all darkness.
The audience all stepped out, oddly the demon audience didn't take this chance to slay the human audience, a portal opens at one end, an exit for the demons. The human exit or the humans was jut a wide open door.
All came out and discussed the show. There they met with the ghost girl Elizabeth riding out on the snake. "people, Please suggest us some beasties for the next show!" she presents a ballot box next to stacks of paper and pens "all of the creatures were myth, all of them are true!" she stroked the head of the snake. " after everything you've seen here, is proof of that!"
