"It's all fun and games till someone falls in love" The circus finally arrived to your town after five years since the last one yet it can't help but bring a sense of dread instead of the usual excitement pooling at the base of your stomach. Mainly for four reasons: •It appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the night. •Children are not allowed inside thanks to its heavy horror themed attractions •It last for 30 whole days •And five workers seems a bit too excited to welcome you to their performances. But you can't back down now, can you? Especially since you have promised your best friend to be there for her as she gets over her fear of clowns. You will just have to deal with an clingy pierrot, a cocky harlequin, a cold ticket taker, a curious doctor and a mysterious jester. . . . . . Mh? Wasn't there also a sweet fool?

The freak circus AU (Neko Bueno on Patreon is the creator of The Freak Circus VN) She never hated monsters. She hated what they had become. Starved. Trapped. Forsaken by the very man who called himself their savior. When survival demanded a price, they paid it by consuming one of their own-Columbina-and the strength they gained came at a cost far darker than anyone could have imagined. For years living among them, Elia questioned their cruelty, their distrust of humans... until she was forced to witness every memory, every century of suffering that shaped them. And something inside her shattered. She understood why they no longer trusted humanity. She understood why she herself was not trusted. Her own kind revolted her. In her final moments, an unknown being offered her a deal she could not refuse... at a price. Now cast into the past, with only a single year to exist, Elia must decide: Can the past be rewritten? If she can save Columbina... Could she save them all? Even if it means she ceases to exist?... Even if she must become the very thing she despises... to ensure their survival?
