Blackwood Academy. Just your regular, average, everyday school, right? Sure. The students take any class any other student would, the school is dominated and divided by different social groups, the students all drink underage and go out on the weekends and have a good time they way they would anywhere else. Sure, they go to school in a building almost 140 years old, but everything has been updated and modernized for convenience. The campus is beautiful and filled with lots of little nooks and crannies that make a prefect place to curl up with a book. There are huge fireplaces in some of the main building areas, which are often lit and make great places to hang out with your friends. Just a picture perfect place with picture perfect views and picture perfect people.
Right?
Wrong.
Even on opening night in 1873, things went wrong. Students complained of feeling a presence that seemed to float in and out of their rooms and examine them; people stumbled upon trap doors and tunnel systems behind wall panels, and some people seemed to simply disappear. Ever since, people have been disappearing with no valid explanation as to why. Many receive threatening letters, but other's don't. Some are girls, some are boys, some are popular, some are not. The victims have nothing in common other than the fact that they go to Blackwood Academy.
These disappearances went on for 120 years before even so much as a single clue was discovered. Back in 1995, a dog digging in its back yard managed to find a mass grave which contained nearly 500 bodies, a number never released to the press. The grave was immediately linked to the school, but no single person could be indited in these heinous crimes. The oldest body was so old, no living person could have killed them, and certainly no one person could have dug this huge mass grave. The case was finally dismissed as an open investigation and put on the shelf, after three years of searching to no avail.
Ever since, students have been complaining of places where the climate seems instantly colder and of feeling a presence floating around. A fair number of students have gone missing, but the school keeps telling students that the missing student simply "went home" or "was expelled". Strange things have been happening all around campus, but everything is always hushed.
As for the students, they stand divided. Half of the student population ignores the strange goings-on, sighting them as faulty heating or any number of other theories to keep them at peace. They're referred to as the social-climbers. The rest of the students are much less easy to pacify, and have been doing research and the like to find out everything they possibly can about the strange activity that seems to take place at their school. The two groups are each headed by a king and queen, and the couples are at constant odds with each other.
At Blackwood, one never knows what they'll find. The whole campus is littered with secret areas, the school administration is up to something, and everything you find is a clue. Can you solve the mystery of Blackwood Academy?
