Deep in the South Forest, surrounded by dark, stands the oldest place in town, th Oaktree Asylum. Placed at the top of a hill, reaching into te sky, growing taller then the trees.

Abandoned since nobody knows when, its closure happens to be a mystery. It just made people made up legends and tales about the place for ages.

More than the curse of the crazy doctor in the asylum, what makes people talk nowadays is the fact that it was used to hide the bodies by a serial killer, Scar Face, who confusedand terrified the population at the end of the nineties.

It has been locked since then, but that doesn't seem to stop the young people from visiting it. All of them attracted by the mystery of its end, the horrible curse and the maniac palace it has become.

The Legends goes: if you go in there during the night, Crazy-Doc will get you, as he did with his patients, in order to experiment with you. All the things that failed to cure insane people will drive you crazy, so mad and angry against everything and everyone.

As with most legends, no-one knows its origin, it is just the curse of some coven who lost one of their witches in there or the spirit of the doctor who was violently murdered, and now search for revenge. But impossible stories doesn't mean it's not real; that it should be ignored. Or worse, tested. Over the years the legend became a joke, then a parenting tool for opportunistic locals whobused it to scare children into behaving properly.

But if legends become legends it's for something, people should fear old stories, they are the only true ones.

They weren't scared.
