Welcome to Millpond
Millpond is no stranger to mysteries. Over the years, this sleepy town, not far from the great states of Maine and Massachusetts, has been the host of a number of macabre incidents, unexplainable phenomena, and some downright wacky folk.
Starting as a farming settlement around 1650, the town grew and grew, flourishing with industry by the turn of the 20th century. Tourists would visit from far and wide to soak in the varied nature on all sides. Its history is rich and vibrant… but also bloody and mysterious.
Below is an archive of the twisted tales that have been passed from generation to generation of Millpondians, now preserved in the written form.
So get yourself some marshmallows, a hot cup of coco, and maybe a silver bullet or two, and embrace the terror of those that walked through Millpond.
