Little disclaimer; I have been R Ping for a long time now, but this is my first RP here, so if I accidentally break some conventions that are expected here, don't hesitate to let me know.
So, basically, there's this idea for a horror RP that I've been wanting work out for a while now so I'm gonna give it a shot here: The island of Poveglia is said to be the world's most haunted island. It's been used as a burial ground for plague victims and there's been an asylum that has stories of alleged abuse surrounding it. After that one closed it's been used a bit for agriculture, but eventually it remained abandoned. Until now.
Finally they managed to get going: a resort on the island. The sinister history and many stories surrounding it became used as a means to attract more curious people. During construction a few workers disappeared, but even their co-workers weren't told the truth. Once everything was done, a competition was organized. The winners got to be the very first visitors of this new resort, having the place all to themselves. These winners are the characters we play. During their stay, the paranormal happenings start minor but slowly escalate. From things being moved a bit and cold spot, to waking up with scratches on your skin, and that's just the start of it. After a while the boat that brought them there won't show up anymore and they need to find a way to either stop the haunting or get off the island. —
Much knowledge of the actual island wouldn't be required; your character can be well informed about it and it might bring new ideas, but given the many stories that surround the place that have probably been exaggerated over time, I'm fine with a lot of artistic liberty being taken, in all honesty. What I'm really looking for is creating a fun, suspenseful horror rp based off of a location I just think is pretty damn neat :')
So, anyone up for that?
