You have gotten the attention of the mysterious lady. She turns to face you. Her face is devoid of any flesh. You are frozen with horror as she begins ripping your body into a bloody mess.

Deleted UserAh yes!  This appears to be the correct location.  (I must telephone Smythe and tell him his directions were accurate.)

Hello, I am Professor Hunt, and I am in search of the Agon.  I just completed two arduous journeys, one to Lapland and the other to Madagascar.  When I returned home, my dear wife, Dorothy, insisted I take a rest before my long voyage to Spain.  

Since I am not one to sit idle for very long, I have brought a number of interesting books with me to read, but I also relish mental challenges and enjoy exploring new places.  My dear friend, Smythe, knowing of my keen interest, told me about this astonishing place of games.  After looking around, it appears that this will be a welcome respite from my travels.

This game event looks extremely challenging, and the rules are somewhat complex, but I believe this will give me the mental stimulation I need.  Who knows?  Perhaps I will discover another clue to help me in my search for the Agon.

(Now I must make a note to find out more about this seemingly sinister Halloween.)

Hi everyone. I am Esmeralda.

I have heard some rumours about a Halloween trivia being started this week, and I am so glad I finally found it. Halloween is my favourite time of the year. I just love all the fun, candy and scarry stuff.

I have looked at the nice little pictures, and I am sure you are all having fun when you play these adventure games. I love fun, so I have decided to participate in the trivia. I hope my magic wand will help me to identify some of the games.

HEY! I'm known as THE BAGMAN.  I am very old.  Hey...I knew an Esmeralda once back in the 20's.  What a hot dame!!!

And she was the same age I was!  The last time I saw her was on Halloween night 1922.  We spent a romantic evening at The Palladium on 126th Street listening and dancing to some Swing music.  The best evening of my life.  I said to myself..."This is the girl I'm going to marry!

I awoke at 7am.  The sheets on the other side of the bed thrown back, her costume draped over it.  No Esmeralda!  I searched all over the city to no avail.  My dream girl.....Gone!

To this day I never got over her.  Never married and dreaming of the day I could find her and experience that level of passion again...even for a brief moment.

Are you that Esmeralda? [smiley=love.gif]

Uhh, I cannot believe it. Bagman, is that really you? It must be - there can be only one Bagman - my Bagman. After all these years we finally meet again. How I have longed for those moments we had back then. We where merely 20 years of age, and our future seemed so bright. I can hardly bear to think back on that night, where I had to leave you so suddenly. I never got any chance to explain, or even... no, it is so painful to think back at that terrible moment. I do not know if I can bear to talk about it here - in an open forum - where the whole world is watching - do you think that is appropriate? I must have some time. I must think this over. I need to be calm and clearheaded when I explain to you why there could be no future for us. You deserve that, my precious Bagman.

Dear Aya. I thank you for hosting this wonderful trivia which has so magically brought us together again. This will be a Halloween I will never forget.

Deleted UserCall me The Lone Adventurer. (Or just TLA for short, if you like.) I roam to and fro across the lands of adventuredom in search of mystery and intrigue, seeking for the answers to the many strange riddles and enigmas that this realm holds, with no one but my trusty horse Slider as a companion.

So when I heard of this tourney, I knew I had found a challenge more worthy than anything I had faced before, and rode straight here. It seems I have arrived just in the nick of time.

And so it begins....may the best mind win!

ESMERALDA:

No need to explain.  I love you!  That's all that matters.  I would have gladly taken a bite on the neck so I could wait all eternity for you (know any vampires?).

You could never break my heart Esmeralda, no matter what your reason for leaving me after that enchanted Halloween night.  I know, deep down inside your beautiful heart, that you love me.  Even at 103, I know you're still the most ravishing woman in the world.

I await your reply.

Yours forever,

BAGMAN

Dearest Bagman, 103 is no age. We are still young. We could start over again and forget the past which has kept us apart. Of course I still love you, and I want nothing more than to be with you again.

I see that many other travelers have found their way to this fine trivia. The magic has captured them and drawn them to this place where they are all posting for the very first time, just like myself, and my Bagman. This is truly magical.

Deleted UserGood day, mortals...I am the true vampire and I will send any of those freaks to hell...I am the Lord of Darkness, Bearer of 1000 Faces, slayer of all those unworthy maggots...
and in my freetime I play a lot of adventure games.

Ah, this appears to be a challenge quite to my taste.
Where is that Sera Victoria? If you are somewhere around here...you must deal with the undead freaks for a while, I'm occupied right now...

Let the games begin!

Deleted UserThese challenges are proving to be more difficult than I first thought.  Nonetheless, I shall persevere.

(I must ask Smythe about the moon ritual depicted by that strange-looking woman in picture number five.  It makes me realize how fortunate I am to have my lovely Dorothy at home.)
