By Tayla Drago

(Note: Hello. I'm Tayla Drago, Anime lover and supporter of all voice actors who loves playing video games to watching some 'can't play this one but I love watching it a lot'...Anyways, I proudly present – my version of Catherine! I like the Catherine: Full Body one a lot, but I like the original one better for something made up here, but to choose between Katherine and/or Rin's path are much better to choose if you're playing with good endings. Sorry, Catherine. I'm just saying...From Golden Playhouse show of a video game type of movie and Anime style; so please, enjoy.)

Tayla: Atlus gaming studios presents...Powered by Gamebryo, CRIWARE, and sounds from the Dolby Digital – It's Catherine video game! :) Also in some made up a movie scary story of Golden Playhouse too. It should be a real thing. Ha! Anyway, let's begin our tale. Time to grab a snack, something to drink, and enjoy the event to be shown.

Episode #1: A Golden Playhouse Feature Film

Our story begins to have an introduction of a TV showing the screen title of the night's programming as the Golden Playhouse. From it, the room is at some bar for one woman with a red hair type of afro makes the night's opening. For she's known as Trisha 'or the Midnight Venus herself' as the host of the show.

Trisha: When the night sky fills with glamour, a lovely story awaits you! Good evening. Welcome to the Golden Playhouse. Your guide for the night is me... "The Midnight Venus," Trisha! ….Have you ever heard about the scary rumor? They say – if you fall in a dream and don't wake up before you land...you die in real life!

Tayla: And I'm Tayla Drago, Anime lover and supporter of all voice actors who loves playing video games to watching some...I'll be telling most of the story to help out Trisha here. But I'll let her tell you the rest first. So take it away, Midnight Venus.

Next it shows the small TV screen to show from the screen title of the show, and some clips of the upcoming movie type of event.

Trisha: Thanks, Tayla, I'll do just that. Tonight's story is "Catherine", an unconventional "romantic horror!" A man with a certain "curse" has a terrifying week.

Tayla: First up...two of our main characters besides the main title of the other female character herself!

Shows a screen clips of two main characters and a few others. First up...

Trisha: Our hero in this story is Vincent Brooks, age 32. He's an earnest and kind man...But one day, we begin to see him to have terrifying nightmares! On top of that, a torrent of sweet seduction swoops down upon him...What a playboy, huh?

From Catherine to be shown next who success Vincent of some of clips, to one more special character next.

Tayla: And one more besides that blonde girl, some other one in it too, and our other main female character in it like Vincent, but much different.

And one more to be shown before the title screen logo shows up next. For this girl has long black hair, red eyes, wears a black winter hoodie coat with some fur, with a black dress type of clothing, long blue boots, and may look like a teenager, but she's really 31 years old.

Trisha: Oh, yes. How can I forget? There's also one other girl for Vincent to come across who's a real cutey pie with brains and who's born with a special gift name Violet Grey. Although she may appear to be young, tough, caring for others to learn about their nightmares as a cute psychiatric, but this girl also has a gift to enter into people's dreams like Vincent's to rescue him and a whole lot more; so much so for all of you fans wishes to see more of this the more you watch.

Tayla: So much so that you just don't want to stop watching this. Also, this what I've decided on than choosing a path in this one. Just saying...

Shows more of the clips on TV next...

Trisha: About Violet doing what she can to solve the strange murder to be going around with Vincent in them, will he be able to overcome all the "blocks" in his life? His outcome...depends how this whole story goes, viewers! Sorry to keep you waitin'! Raise the curtains! Now enjoy the show! Until we meet again...!

Tayla: And now, on with the show!

It was time to cut to the screen of the movie to begin. Let's introduce our characters who'll be in it before we can begin:

Main Characters:

*Violet Grey, a 30-year-old psychologist who studies people of their dreams and nightmares to have a gift to help anyone from every visit to trust in line of work. Like Vincent, she can enter in dreams of others she comes contact with to learn about the murders to be going on. As she and Vincent come together to try helping out one another, other victims, solve the case, end in the nightmare, and stop the real murderer who's behind it all. My version of made up female OC Violet is voiced by Erika Harlacher in English.

Vincent Brooks, a 32-year-old systems engineer who acts as the game's protagonist and player character. Unambitious and lackadaisical, Vincent lives a stereotypical bachelor's life; he avoids the challenges of adulthood, including his uninspiring job, his run-down apartment, and his unwillingness to marry his girlfriend, Katherine. Vincent is voiced by Troy Baker in English.

Catherine, a 22-year-old woman. She meets Vincent at the Stray Sheep seemingly by accident, and ends up spending the night with him. This encounter, and Catherine's continued attempts to romance Vincent, become the catalyst for the game's events. Outwardly Catherine is a playful, seductive, and free spirited; in reality, she is a succubus who tempts men for her own ends. Catherine is voiced by Laura Bailey in English.

Katherine McBride, a 32-year-old woman working as an office manager at a clothing manufacturer. A high school friend of Vincent's, they reconnected five years prior to the game's events and began dating. Katherine wishes to marry Vincent, and is increasingly irritated by his indecisiveness. Katherine is voiced by Michelle Ruff in English.

Orlando Haddick (Liam O'Brien), an old friend and divorcee who holds cynical views on marriage; Johnny Ariga (Travis Willingham) an idealist searching for a soulmate; and Toby Nebbins (Yuri Lowenthal), Johnny's co-worker who has a crush on Erica Anderson (Erin Fitzgerald) a waitress at the Stray Sheep. Thomas Mutton (Kirk Thornton), nicknamed "Boss", is the owner of the Stray Sheep. The game is narrated by Trisha, (Erin Fitzgerald) who is the host of Golden Playhouse dubbed the "Midnight Venus".
