You and your team of helpers receive a mysterious, aged letter from a child named Lily. The letter, scrawled in wobbly handwriting, pleads for help, saying, “Dear Santa, this Christmas… I want to be free. It’s getting colder now and the darkness keeps coming closer. Please help me [etc]” It’s signed, “From Lily.”
As this is quite concerning, you trace the letter to a dilapidated building, once a cheerful place of holiday spirit but now silent, its walls whispering of forgotten songs and laughter. As you step inside, a chill settles over you. The door slams shut, and a strange enchantment takes hold. An ancient, mocking voice echoes through the halls: “Welcome, my dear guests. It’s time for my Christmas curse to come to life!”
You’ve become trapped in the spell of a witch who once haunted this place. Long ago, the children discovered her true identity, and she placed a curse on the building that traps anyone who dares enter on Christmas Eve.
