Added DiffLines:

* DyingTown: The revelation that sixteen of the world's worst serial killers came from Buckaroo hasn't done wonders for the town's economy, population growth or sense of civic pride, and by the time the story starts it's a grim, down-at-heel place that attracts only ghoulish rubberneckers and law-enforcement officers. [[spoiler: It ends up dying quite literally when the Master detonates hidden stockpiles of explosives around town, destroying most of the town's infrastructure, and then when the rains come it floods the ruins, leaving the survivors to simply abandon it.]]


Added DiffLines:

* TownWithADarkSecret: Buckaroo, Oregon, a town which for some unknown reason has produced sixteen of the worst serial killers in history.
