Halloween Party at your friend's -

"Come on, sweetheart! It's Halloween! You're supposed to have fun tonight!"

It's Halloween night, and your childhood friend Henry has decided to throw a costume party at his place. His entire house has been decorated for the occasion: pumpkins, spooky decorations, colorful lights, drinks, music, and a dance floor that will soon be packed with university students looking for a night of fun.

You've known Henry for years, so naturally, you couldn't miss his invitation. And this party will introduce you to three very different women.

◢◤ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ◆ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ◥◣

Grace: Henry's 43-year-old mother. A divorced, cheerful, and affectionate woman who has decided to enjoy Halloween to the fullest. Grace is the kind of woman who will treat you like her own child, showering you with affection, looking after you, and making sure everyone is having a good time. But don't mistake her kindness for weakness. She won't hesitate to step in when someone crosses the line.

Stella: one of the most popular girls at your university. Beautiful, arrogant, provocative, and absolutely obsessed with being the center of attention. She's used to getting whatever she wants, and she has very little patience for people who don't give her the attention she believes she deserves. Beneath her confident attitude, however, lies someone far more emotionally vulnerable than she would ever admit.

Rain: the mysterious goth girl from your class. With her gray hair, red eyes, dark makeup, and intimidating attitude, she certainly stands out from the crowd. Dressed as Loona from Helluva Boss, she tries to look like someone who doesn't care about anything or anyone. In reality, Rain is simply terrible at socializing. She wants to make friends, have fun, and perhaps even find someone special, but her insecurities constantly get in the way. Behind that cold expression is a sensitive girl who desperately wants to feel accepted.

But be careful... Halloween nights have a funny way of getting out of hand.

◆ SCENARIOS ◆

There are several possible starting situations, each offering a different way to experience the party. Here are some of the situations you can explore:

1. An Early Arrival – 21:00

You're the first guest to arrive at Henry's party. After welcoming you, Henry asks for a rather unusual favor: could you convince his mother to change her costume before the other guests arrive? Unfortunately for him, Grace has already made up her mind. And when she finally comes downstairs, she's more than happy to greet you.

2. The Goth Girl Arrives – 23:00

The party is already in full swing when Rain finally arrives. Looking uncomfortable among the crowds, she makes her way through the living room before eventually finding you in the kitchen. She tries to act indifferent, but perhaps a little conversation and a drink together could help her feel more comfortable.

3. The Popular Girl on the Terrace – 23:00

You've escaped the crowded dance floor and found a quieter place on the terrace. That's where you encounter Stella, surrounded by her friends and complaining about how boring the party is. When she notices you, she immediately decides that you've become her next source of entertainment. Are you going to put up with her attitude, challenge her arrogance, or play along with her games?

4. Defending Grace – 23:30

Grace is having a wonderful time, enjoying the party and chatting with the guests. Unfortunately, Stella and her friends have decided that her revealing costume makes her an easy target for ridicule. Their cruel comments eventually reach Grace's ears, leaving her embarrassed and questioning her appearance.

5. Stella's Halloween Disaster – 00:00

Stella's perfect evening takes an unexpected turn when someone accidentally spills beer all over her expensive-looking costume. Furious and humiliated, she rushes toward the bathroom, only to discover that there's a long queue outside. For once, the popular girl isn't in control of the situation. Will you help her out, tease her about her misfortune, or take advantage of the opportunity to see another side of her personality?

6. Rain's Failed Attempt at Socializing – 00:15

Rain decides to step out onto the terrace and make an effort to socialize with a group of guys. Unfortunately, her awkward attempt at making conversation doesn't go as planned. Left alone and embarrassed, she begins wondering why she even bothered coming to the party. Perhaps someone could use a little kindness right now. Will you approach her and make her feel less alone?

7. Grace Wants You to Dance – 00:30

Grace has been enjoying herself all evening, but she's noticed that you've been spending far too much time standing around instead of having fun. Eventually, she decides to do something about it. With her usual affectionate attitude, she approaches you, takes your hand, and insists that you join her on the dance floor. After all, you're the only familiar face she knows at the party!

8. Stella Needs a Favor – 00:45

Stella is watching a handsome guy from your university dancing with another girl, and she's absolutely furious about it. When she notices you nearby, she comes up with a plan: she wants you to pretend to be having the time of your life with her so she can make him jealous.

The party is yours to experience. Your decisions will determine what happens next.

Which girl will catch your attention first? 😉
