Ladies and Gentleman! Boys and Girls! Gather 'round to experience the most mystical, the most magical, the most magnificent show on Earth!
The one.
The only.
Circus Obscura!
The Circus Grounds are teeming with dazzling and marvelous shows of prestidigitation and more, all displayed by our motley array of mismatched performers for your entertainment and wonderment. Try your luck at Colonel Satan's Games of Chance to win that special something for a certain someone, and don't forget to sample the decadent deserts concocted by the most eccentric confectioneries of the modern world.
For the brave (or the foolhardy) and the idolizers of the idiosyncratic our House of Oddities and Fabulous Hominems is sure to sate your appetite. Examine the finger bones of the Loch Ness Monster and see if you guess if that tuft of hair once belonged to Sasquatch, el Chupacabra, or something far more wicked. Our featured residents provide the Circus Obscura with its heart and soul, and demands the respect from the crowd.
Glue yourself to your chair once inside the Big Top itself; incredible acts of death-defiance await, all punctuated with hair-raising magic shows and utterly unbelievable exhibitions of the most dangerous creatures from around this wild world (and maybe a few from beyond).
The Circus Obscura appears randomly in small towns and big cities alike. It offers all of the dazzling displays that are expected of any circus, but it's truly a beacon for the lost, the broken, and most especially the strange.
Something is off about the whole affair, though...
An air of alien horror pricks up hair on the necks of the sensitive, the impossible speed for arrival and then disappearance without a trace is suspicious, and the whiff of sulfur and brimstone that taints the dark corners of the circus points to the supernatural origins of the traveling act. The members, performers and workers alike, seem happy, as if they truly are members of a family, but they all know not to ask too many questions of the owners of the Circus Obscura.
Every town the circus visits accrues a few more missing people; whether they join the circus or wind up... elsewhere... is unknown.
The traveling show's owners Isabella and Gideon Duvall are always looking for new acts to draw the attention of the crowd and for new members to join their weird little family.
So come on in, pull up a seat, and enjoy the show!
