About 5 years ago there was a boy named Gillian, he lived in a small town called Maiden Swamp. Gillian and his brother Max were going to see the new act in the freak show, Azravity the crooked clown. They were enjoying the show, when Azravity asked for a volunteer from the audience for the trapeze act. She chose Gillian, he got out of the stands and walked over to Azravity she told him to climb up and be ready. Gillian looked up nervously at the platform high above him, he climbed the ladder to the top and waited, then he was snatched up by the trapezist then he was tossed and caught, till his hand slipped and he fell missing the net. He woke up the next morning in a hospital room, his parents told him what had happened because he had a concussion and slight memory loss, then the News came on. Apparently Azravity had gone insane, she had spread gasoline through the park and set it on fire. There were over 500 people including Azravity, Gillian's parents were horrified to find out this all happened only half an hour after the accident.
3 years later Gillian began to hear a sound, he soon realized it was a voice, but not any voice, it was Azravity, she was singing what sounded like words to go with the song that had played during her act. She sang , "Welcome to my crooked town, I'm Azravity the crooked clown, listen to my crooked sound , you're forever part of crooked town, I'll stick with you cause I'm sad, I will drive you completely mad, then I won't have to be sad and that would be super rad." Gillian spent 3 years listening to Azravity singing on loop, it was driving him mad then he snapped, he ran into the woods as fast as he could and he was singing along to Azravity's song.
Nobody knows what happened to Gillian after that, his brother Max was the last person who saw Gillian. Max had chased after Gillian when he stopped singing he went behind a tree and was gone all that was left was an old slightly charred flyer from the circus. Gillian's was never found nor was his body, after he disappeared more and more children disappeared and the police don't know who or what was doing it. Everyone of the witnesses say there was a chorus of voices singing, " Welcome to our crooked town, We're all here with Azravity the crooked clown forever part of crooked town we hope you'll join us too, cause we will gladly welcome you into our crooked embrace we all will know your face and you'll never be stuck in a lonely place so join us is crooked town here with the crooked clown singing our crooked sound." It's always followed by the goofy laugh of Azravity the crooked clown and a charred flyer from the circus.
No sign of the missing kids was ever found till now, I'm Gillian's brother Max, I'm a psychic medium and I went back to what was left of the circus, I found something in the house of horrors, engraved on a mirror in the mirror maze section was a message in my brother's hand messy writing was a message for me.
(Dear, Max)
I know you're the only one who would think to look here, don't give up on me and if you start to remember we had a promise that if one of us went missing the other wouldn't give up looking till they die or find the other. I know you have the flyer still look closely it holds the key to where I am at least that's what Azy says she is the what's left of Azravity's sanity she tries to help us but she doesn't even know where we are. Find me I know you can Max.
(Love, Gillian.)
