Cooperville, a small, peaceful town in the middle of Maine. Its serene landscape and friendly people make it a wonderful vacation destination. The town itself has a rich history, founded in 1843 by French settlers looking for a rich and fertile land. It was the setting of many wonderful historical events, such as the great boxing match between Joe Autol and Herman Heaths.

Then there's the wild jackles that live on the slopes of Elmore Heights, the lost princess who was taken by her deranged father into the cherry grove to be sacrificed to the God of the Moon. There are the voices of children who have been taken by the woods who lure travelers to the edge of the highest peek of Elmore Heights. Then, on the west side of the forest, in the darkest part of the woods, they say there is a small hollow in the ground, nothing lives in it, nothing lives near it. The only thing surrounding it is a strangely red earth, this, they say, is the gate to hell. But these are, of course, all legends......
