The story line we have decided to is based around old legends - we chose one called Baron Samedi which is based around an old legend on Haitian voodoo. The legend is that he is a selfish spirit,chasing after mortal women and that he often is depicted to have a 'fondness' for tobacco and a bottle of rum on him. He likes to disrupt events or other souls, he likes obscenity,he makes filthy jokes to the other spirits and swears a lot - but his main job is to carry the recently deceased to the other side.
We decided to reverse this and that he would take spirits from the bodies of four young college age students in a ritual connected to a book.
The story starts off with the Samedi in mid ritual - the opening starts and then we are shown the teenagers walking down from the college,laughing and joking. They have a party later in the evening and decide to buy an ouija board. They walk to a shop called enchantica on the search for one but end up with a book of rituals instead. They take it to the party and get really drunk and decide to start a ritual - they begin the ritual as joke. At the same time the baron begins the ritual.The energy between the rituals mix and the baron becomes aware of the teenagers - the baron decides to kill the men and keep the women. He lures the teenagers away from the party and kills them with the other vengeful spirits. Unfortunately for Baron,the other side intervenes and uses the teenagers to strip him of power - he then get trapped into book,waiting for the next victim to initiate the ritual.
