Mardi Gras, a vibrant and lively carnival celebrated in many parts of the world, has always been associated with joy, music, and elaborate parades. However, lurking beneath the glittering masks and colorful costumes lies a dark curse that has haunted this festive occasion for centuries. Legend has it that the curse originated from a voodoo priestess who was deeply perturbed by the debauchery and excesses of Mardi Gras. Disturbed by the revelry, she cast a curse that would forever taint the festivities, bringing misfortune and chaos to those who partook in the carnival. Over the years, locals and tourists alike have reported strange occurrences during Mardi Gras. People have claimed to be followed by shadows, eerie laughter echoing in the night, and an inexplicable sense of dread permeating the air.
There will be a sacrifice at the witching hour - me.
