‪Beware of the Spider Beast of the Arana Jungle! Don't let her attractive appearance trick you; this arachnid abomination is known to trap travelers and locals alike into her webs. Those who get stuck in her unusually-large webs are then fed to the spiders.‬
Entry 10 2025:
What started out as a special day for Little Emma has turned into a massacre. Princess Opal, who was hired to entertain the kids at Little Emma’s Birthday Party, had enough with being messed with. Right when she snapped, she began to kill Emma’s friends one by one!

‪There’s a danger in the old streets of Cairlon, and it’s rock-solid. One of the gargoyles that appear in the city’s clocktower’s architecture is said to come to life and terrorize the folks of Cairlon. As nonsensical as it sounds, there is proof of such activity.‬

For many years, a counselor for Camp Caddowood has been missing. There's a campfire story popular among campers about a hiker who went insane, wore a skull of a deer and became savage after getting lost. The story's passing is likely a silly coincidence... or is it?

‪With many disappearances of livestock in the holy city of Bodesanto, there's been rumors of a monster who forages for loose livestock. Nobody is sure what it looks like, but it's heavily assumed that "Sister Nigella", could be the monster in disguise of a nun.‬

‪Deep in the Hoary Iron Mines, a winged, blood-sucking menace dwells. Miners who had the misfortune to encounter this creature nickname it “Big John Desmond”, and they say that he used to be a miner like them. How did he become a man-bat monster in the first place?‬
Entry 5 2025:
Akaishi was a ronin who once served a powerful daimyo. After he went off to be a ronin, he suffered great shame, so much shame that he was fallen in battle too early. His vengeful spirit roams the Midorishi Road, seeking revenge on those who disrespected him.

‪Would you dare place your bets and play a game of blackjack against Spade? This strange card dealer is said to reside at the very back of the Queen's Fortune Casino. Many say that his game of blackjack is "rigged", and those who lost has lost more than their cash.‬
Entry 3 2024:
There's been tales of sailors encountering dangers in the open sea, and Captain Moreau is said to be one of them. This ghastly pirate has plundered many seafarers who were unfortunate to encounter him. His bitter avarice keeps him in this world, after all.
Entry 2 2024:
"Alicia" is the name that Little Elly gave to her new doll. Little did Elly know that things would take a turn after bringing Alicia home. She may seem like a normal doll, but she sometimes causes trouble when nobody's looking; like ruining Elly's toys, for example.
Entry 1 2025:

In the old Red Lily Funeral Parlor at the outskirts of town, a strange, moth-like creature is said to roam the cemetery. Some say that this creature used to be the funeral parlor's undertaker. Whatever it is, it's best not to be drawn to its lantern.
