Let me explain, I work for the S.S.C.U. and I know you probably have not heard of it and I know it sounds like some made up place, but S.S.C.U. stands for "Supernatural Subject Containment Unit" and it is very real. I've worked here for ten years and I am in charge of the resident's health and well-being. Thinking about it, residents may not be the right word for who or what exactly we hold in here. The creatures and the people that live here are all prisoners, most of which are being kept here against their will. They are locked away to ensure the safety of the public and to stop mass hysteria from spreading all over the globe. Some of these entities seem to come straight from your nightmares. They are the reason you cannot sleep with your feet outside of the covers at night, the reason you feel you must close your closet door before going to bed. They are the monsters that had haunted your mind as a child and still spark fear in your subconscious to this day. Worst of all they are just as real as you and me."
