Re: [ENDGAME]:Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren

I want to thank everyone for playing The Syndicate's first Micro-mafia game, as well as my first hosted game! There were some minor bumps along the way, but it was mostly a smooth flight. Don't forget to your flight attendant on the way out.

Feedback is golden. Dom is the assigned mod to the Micro-Mafia sub-forum, so let him know what you think. I really appreciate him taking on modding duties in this capacity (as well as the other mods and admins for having faith in me to make this happen in the first place). Submit your prospective micro-mafia games in The Drawing Board and then PM Dom the link.

See you around the site, and don't get possessed.

2. Ed Warren - Vompatti
3. Lars - Logan the Llama
4. Matteo - Matt/Ape R. Son

Re: [ENDGAME]:Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren



Another Night, Another Dream, But Always You.

Everyone screamed as Matteo's body slunk to the ground. Lars thundered up the stairs to his room and fell to his knees.

Aria's body began to shake. Framed photos began falling off the walls, and cracks ran down the sheetrock.

A wailing moan extended from Lorraine's hyperextended jaw. Her eyes rolled back in her head and she fainted.

"Not Aria!" Lars shouted. "You already took Matteo from me, don't take Aria! Take me instead!"

An unseen forced jumped out of Aria and her body went slack. Lars began to shake, his body going rigid.

Re: [Night2]:Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren



Matteo, Lars, and Ed rushed to Lorraine's side. He and Matteo hauled her up and toted her into their bedroom, where she could rest. Matteo kneeled by her bedside while Lars rushed to make her some coffee. Ed sat next to her, fingering his rosary.

Suddenly, Aria ran into the room, hair askew, and her eyes solid white. She put her hands around Matteo neck and snapped it with a loud thwack.

A Person has been lynched.

Re: [Day2]:Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren, Demonologi

A tour of their Room of Curiosities:


Ed and Lorraine arrived at 3246 Pleasant Terrace. Over the week of telephone conversations with the Nykvists, activity had grossly escalated at the house. Keys went missing and were found in the butter drawer of the fridge. Shoes mysteriously appeared in the back of an unused cubby under the stairs. Most worrying though was how morose Aria had been in the last week. Barely eating and barely talking, she had grown increasingly withdrawn after the wallpaper incident.

Lars and Matteo greeted the Warrens at the door.

"My goodness, I can really feel a heavy presence in this house," Lorraine said.

Ed talked to the men while Lorraine wandered through the first floor. She shivered as she walked by the cubby under the stairs.


May I go to the upper floors?" she asked Matteo and Lars.

"Yes, of course, you have free run of the house," Lars said.

"Yeah, let us know if you need anything," Matteo added.

"And where is the child right now? Aria, where is she?" Ed asked.

"She's at a neighbor's house for the day. They have a little boy that's the same age as Aria. I think they are going to a park today," Matteo explained.

Lorraine headed up the stairs. She paused at Aria's room. She put her hand on the doorknob, but did not go inside. Instead, she went down the hall to the door that lead to the third floor. The stairs had a door at each end, which made the air in that stairwell quite heavy and stagnant.

"I'm going up to third floor," she said to the men below.

"Wait until we get up there!" Ed said from below.

As Ed, Matteo and Lars hustled up the stairs, Lorraine opened up the bottom door of the stairwell. Stepping gingerly, she was taken aback by the palpable level of dread she was feeling. The men had reached the second floor and Ed was standing at the bottom of the stairs, holding the door open.

"Should we follow her?" Matteo asked Ed.

"Not just yet," Ed replied. "I like to give her a little space to figure out who we have living here with you first."

Lorraine reached the top of the stairs and opened the door. As she tried to enter the darkened room, she was pushed down the stairs.

Re: [Day1]:Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren, Demonologi



23 Years Prior.

Aria was a mellow but inquisitive child, always asking questions and analyzing life's mysteries. Surprisingly precocious for age 6, her fathers spoke to her more as an adult and did not talk down to her.

She was excited about moving into their new home on Pleasant Terrace. 3246, to be exact. The family pulled their blue sedan into the driveway of the three-story house. Lars adjusted the mirror to see if the moving van was in sight before he exited the car.

"Let's stay in the car for a moment," Matteo said to Aria.

"Papa, where is Daddy going?" she asked.

"Probably to see if the realtor is here yet.Her office is in walking distance, so she won't have a car parked out here if she is inside," Matteo told her.

Lars gave the thumbs up and Aria catapulted herself out the door. Matteo chuckled as she whirled past him.

"Can I see my room now?" she said to Lars but then looking back to Matteo for approval. Aria had not known life without Matteo, whom she called "Papa."

"Sure, chicken. Just be careful on those stairs before we lay down carpeting on them," Lars said.

"It's the first door on the left," Matteo added.

"Okay!" Aria said as her tiny legs worked as pistons to fly her up the stairs. Lars went back into the kitchen to talk to the realtor.

"Papa!" she called from the top of the stairs.

"Yes, pickle?" Matteo said, looking up from documents.

"Which way is left?"



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Over the next week, the family busied themselves with settling into their new home. The first floor held visiting areas, the kitchen and the dining room, and the second floor held three bedrooms and a den. The third floor was only half the size as the other floors, and Matteo used it as his office. A freelance architect, the loft's open window lighting was perfect for drawing his creations.

It seemed be any old house until the day the new wallpaper was applied. Matteo and Lars had selected a modern print in greens and blues that would be applied in the first floor hallways. The previous wallpaper was stained and dated, and had rivets or striations about hip-level on the wall. The realtor mused that this trenches were caused by the previous owner, who was wheelchair bound. The hallway was slightly too big for the wheelchair, and the constant back-and-forth in the wheelchair over the years caused these trenches to occur.

"Oh that looks wonderful," Lars said to the worker who was flattening out the last strip of wallpaper. "It really brightens up this hallway and the dark floors and baseboards."

"I'd clear out for a bit while it dries," instructed the worker.

"Family!" Lars called down to hall into the kitchen, where Matteo and Aria were both reading in the breakfast nook.

"Whaaaaaat?" they both answered.

"Would you like to drive into town for some pizza?"

"Pizza, yay!" Aria shouted, running down the stairs.

Lars picked her up in his arms.

Aria sucked on a piece of her hair. "Daddy, can I get green olives as my one topping?"

"Green olives, eww! How am I supposed to steal a slice if you get that?" He swooped her up and blew a raspberry on her belly. Matteo looked on, amused.

"Why can't you just like pepperoni like a normal child?" Lars asked her, putting her on his shoulders as they headed out to the car.

"Yeah, everyone knows that anchovies are objectively the best topping," Matteo chimed in.

Lars and Aria made gagging sounds.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When they returned from attempted carbocide, Aria was sent up to her room to prepare for bathtime.

"After-dinner drink?" Matteo asked Lars.

"I would murder a man for a G&T," Lars said frankly.

"Just as long as that man isn't me," Matteo laughed.

Both men abruptly stopped in their tracks. The trenches were back in the freshly-applied wallpaper.

"How could this ---?" Matteo asked, perplexed.

"Huh. Well I guess the ridging wasn't from the wheelchair eroding it away after all. We must have a leak and that's what's causing the marks. It must be water damage. I'll call a plumber first thing tomorrow," Lars decided.

"I guess, if you're sure," Matteo said.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The morning light brought the plumber, who could not find a leak, breach or any faults at all in the plumbing,

"I don't think that's where your answers lie, Mack," he said before quickly leaving the house. He didn't charge them for the visit, but simply shook their hands and wished them good luck.

"Let's take Ari out for an ice cream and check in on that paint store on Central. Maybe we could just stain and then paint these walls. That'd cover up those unsightly trenches," Matteo suggested.

"Do you think that will look okay?" Lars asked.

"It can't be worse than this."


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Over the next few weeks, Matteo and Lars tried several types of paint and sealants, each time trying more coats than the last. But to no avail. The trenches kept coming back each time.

"It's funny, they look like they could almost be nailmarks from a really tall man," Lars mused.

"They look more like clawmarks," Matteo said, a shiver running down his spine.

The two men turned and looked at one another.

"Maybe it's time to call someone," Matteo said.

"Another contractor?" Lars said.

"No, not a contractor. Not at all like a contractor. There must be experts for something like this," Matteo posited.

"I'll get the phonebook."


------------------------------------------------------------------

2 hours later, Ed & Lorraine Warren's phone began to ring.



Mister Rearranger has been lynched.

He was:

Re: [Day1]:Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren, Demonologi

Special Event.

Image

Special Event.

Many people believe that the allegedly possessed are simply mad (but we all know that isn't always so).

Hence, a game of Mad Libs was in order.

Each player sent me a list of words, and here are those stories created from those words. I have underlined the words the individual player sent to me. They did not know the story in advance.

1. Mister Rearranger's Story

Vomps, bea, A Person, Mister Rearranger, MetalMarsh89 and their Great Dane thellama73 were out on another caper in their stupendous mystery van.

They pulled up to a haunted thong and unloaded from the vehicle.

"Whoa, this place is drunk!" remarked bea.

"I think it will have lots of mysterious flippers," declared Vomps.

"Let's go in and stomp and hug all over the place," said A Person.

Everyone agreed and went inside.

thellama73 barked at all the flamboyant balloons.

Mister Rearranger offered him an odorous dog treat in order to get him to act more partially. He ate it happily.

"Wow, I think I found something!" shouted Metalmarsh89.

"What is it?" asked bea.

"Is it a plumber?" asked A Person.

"I bet it's a magical clue," mused Mister Rearranger.

"I like ducks," whimpered thellama73.

"Oh mystery solved!" said Vomps. It's just an old galactic swordfish!"

Everyone laughed and went home happy.

Image

2. Llama's story

Vomps, bea, A Person, Mister Rearranger, MetalMarsh89 and their Great Dane thellama73 were out on another caper in their bellicose mystery van.

They pulled up to a haunted mannequin and unloaded from the vehicle.

"Whoa, this place is baleful!" remarked bea.

"I think it will have lots of mysterious Zulus," declared Vomps.

"Let's go in and excoriate and bamboozle all over the place," said A Person.

Everyone agreed and went inside.

thellama73 barked at all the noisome gewgaws.

Mister Rearranger offered him an ubiquitous dog treat in order to get him to act more insufferably. He ate it happily.

"Wow, I think I found something!" shouted Metalmarsh89.

"What is it?" asked bea.

"Is it a persiflage?" asked A Person.

"I bet it's a matutinal clue," mused Mister Rearranger.

"I like Succubi," whimpered thellama73.

"Oh mystery solved!" said Vomps. It's just an old Byzantine Euphonium!"

Everyone laughed and went home happy.


Image

3. Vompatti's Story

Vomps, bea, A Person, Mister Rearranger, MetalMarsh89 and their Great Dane thellama73 were out on another caper in their succulent mystery van.

They pulled up to a haunted magnet and unloaded from the vehicle.

"Whoa, this place is obtuse!" remarked bea.

"I think it will have lots of mysterious shoes," declared Vomps.

"Let's go in and multiply and examine all over the place," said A Person.

Everyone agreed and went inside.

thellama73 barked at all the seedy edges.

Mister Rearranger offered him a translucent dog treat in order to get him to act more somewhat. He ate it happily.

"Wow, I think I found something!" shouted Metalmarsh89.

"What is it?" asked bea.

"Is it an oak?" asked A Person.

"I bet it's a red clue," mused Mister Rearranger.

"I like poles," whimpered thellama73.

"Oh mystery solved!" said Vomps. It's just an old buoyant drone!"

Everyone laughed and went home happy.


Image

4. Metalmarsh's Story

Vomps, bea, A Person, Mister Rearranger, MetalMarsh89 and their Great Dane thellama73 were out on another caper in their alluring mystery van.

They pulled up to a haunted slice of Rye bread and unloaded from the vehicle.

"Whoa, this place is murky!" remarked bea.

"I think it will have lots of mysterious tidal waves," declared Vomps.

"Let's go in and plug and travel all over the place," said A Person.

Everyone agreed and went inside.

thellama73 barked at all the viscous craniums.

Mister Rearranger offered him a robust dog treat in order to get him to act more gladly. He ate it happily.

"Wow, I think I found something!" shouted Metalmarsh89.

"What is it?" asked bea.

"Is it Worcestershire sauce?" asked A Person.

"I bet it's a new clue," mused Mister Rearranger.

"I like indexes," whimpered thellama73.

"Oh mystery solved!" said Vomps. It's just an old illegible garden!"

Everyone laughed and went home happy.

For fun, if anyone is interested in the topic, here are some videos (these are totally not required viewing, by the way).

Probably the most famous case on Paranormal Witness, "I am 6" -- here is a clip of the "exorcism":

Great question. We will have 3 days and 3 nights, which will be 24 hours each. So 24 hours for day and then 24 hours for night.

By the way, the current poll is just for fun and non-players are allowed to vote as well.

I'll be putting up the Lynch Poll soon.

Re: Redacted Case of Ed & Lorraine Warren, Demonologists

Prologue: A New Beginning.
Lorraine Warren sat in her chair, sipping some tea. Lost in her memories, she had allowed the tea to go tepid. Surrounded in her house of artifacts, should could feel Ed's presence with her. She missed him so much that she could barely stand it. She thought about him first thing when she got up in the morning, and the last thing before she fell asleep at night. Still, when in their cabinet of curiosities room, she could appreciate the demonology work they had done over the decades, and it gave her solace.

Lorraine's peaceful reverie was shattered by the ringing of the house phone. She wondered briefly if it was her daughter phoning her to report about their vacation to Block Island, but as soon as she thought it, she knew it wasn't true.

"This is Lorraine Warren speaking."

"Oh, yes. Good morning, Mrs. Warren. This is Ivy Fiorentino from The Village Voice. We are interested in doing a retrospective of you and your most prominent cases over the years," she said.

"Hello, dear. I'd be happy to help you, but I don't know why you would want to do a feature on an old woman like me. Ed and I, we just did the lord's work, combatting evil when the need arose."

"That's what I find so fascinating about you, Mrs. Warren. Evil is more prolific in our world than ever. I guess you heard about the alleged possession in Lexington," Ivy continued.

"Yes, I heard Father Fortea was approached to do a cleansing of that house," Lorraine responded.

"It's not just that, Mrs. Warren. The woman's name is Aria Loy. She says you've helped her before. Her maiden name was --"

Lorraine cut her off. "Nykvist. Her name was Aria Nykvist." Lorraine's vision began to swirl. Feeling dizzy, she slunk down into the chair behind her.

"She needs your help again, Ms. Warren."

"I never speak about that case," Lorraine managed to say.

"Her whole family is in a state of peril. She has has a son, Anson, who has been hospitalized due to lack of restful sleep. She needs you. You are the only one who can help her. Father Fortea has already agreed to help her." The frustration started to show in Ivy' voice. "She's asked me to contact you while she is at the hospital with her son. They should be releasing him tomorrow morning."

"I need time to think about this." Lorraine said, her voice quiet.

Ivy's voice softened. "I can imagine this is very hard for you. I understand that this is the only case you and Ed would never speak about, either with the press or even your own friends. That's gotta be hard on the psyche."

"She's got a son, you say?" Lorraine asked.

"Yes, he's 5. A real bright boy, loves trains and dinosaurs." Ivy said.

"I need to find my notes. I'll call you back within the hour with my answer." Lorraine stated.

She hung up the phone and went to her library. Between two large, black bookcases was a small nook. The sort of unused space that you wouldn't even notice if you weren't looking for it. Lorraine slid her withered hand into the crevice and pulled out a dusty, aged folder.

Knocking the dust off, she read the label: "The Pleasant Terrace File."

"Oh, Ed, if I ever needed you..."

Lorraine took the folder to her kitchen and set it down on the table. She opened it to a set of portraits. Fingering each one, she laid them out in a line. The last photo was of The Warrens with the Nykvist family.

Patting the table resolutely, she put the kettle on.

She picked up the phone, steeling her nerve.

"Ivy, I'll be there."


It is now Day 1.
You have 24 hours to help Lorraine find the demon that is once again haunting Aria's family.
