Set: Interior of a fairy-tale castle

A group of villains—including the Evil Queen, Wicked Stepmother, and the Big Bad Wolf—and some familiar faces with dubious morals— like Little Red Riding Hood and Pinocchio—are locked in a mansion on a dark and stormy night. Their only means of escape is helping Prince Charming figure out the name of a mischievous imp who has his eyes set on a gasp-inducing treasure. As they begin to unravel the mystery before the midnight deadline, the storm knocks out the power in the mansion, and in a twist, some of the guests get knocked out, too. Will anyone be left to crack the riddle of the imp’s name and escape? Or will a parade of surprise guests only make matters worse as even more beloved characters become victims to the unknown assailant? With three endings to choose from, the mystery is yours to solve!
