craigtucker dealswiththedevil death evil ghosts horror lotsofcharacterdeath majorcharacterdeaths murder rubytucker southpark spirits tuckerfamily vengeance

Upon the murder of his little sister, Craig Tucker swears to himself that he'll get her back if it's the last thing he does. Finding the key to a house in the woods, he locates what murdered her. It would be good news, but he never expected it to have been something not entirely human. Humanoid, maybe, but being a spirit that makes deals with desperate humans isn't human.
To add onto that, Craig is a desperate human.
Making deals with spirits is never a good idea, because it doesn't always mean that you're just trading your life for another.
It can mean that you're throwing yourself into a pit of horrors that you never would have willingly went into, not if you were thinking straight.All Rights Reserved
