StarFall Circus

It's the mid 19th century, 1867 to be exact. Going to see the circus that's in town, is almost as popular as going to a theme park today. It was a fun day for the whole family, going to watch people risk their lives for your entertainment.
Everything seems perfectly normal. Nothing is strange about this circus but the ring master... he seems awfully familiar. Almost as if, he's the one you read about in the papers every morning. He's the one you need to worry about. Almost as if... he's not normal. Not in the slightest.
