The Crooked Man's Carnival

"Men willingly believe what they wish were true."

— Julius Caesar

In the quiet town of Havenwood, Montana, a shadow creeps, as vibrant fall colors give way to something far colder. People are vanishing. Others are left behind, with vacant eyes and an unsettling, permanent grin.

Local law enforcement is baffled. But what if the truth isn't just baffling, but... unnatural?

This autumn, the Harvest Moon Carnival rolls into town, bringing with it the scent of popcorn and cotton candy, the thrill of the Ferris wheel, and a creeping unease that clings to the air. Is it just a coincidence that the disappearances began when the bright lights of the carnival illuminated the night sky?

Some say there's a Crooked Man in the shadows, feeding on sorrow and despair. He doesn't just take lives; he takes what makes them alive.

Delta Green, your team has been called in to uncover the truth, and save the inhabitants of Havenwood. Or will you too, find yourself staring into the face of a smile that promises only emptiness?
