In the winter of 1970, a massive logging and timber company known as Timberfall had begun building sawmills and logging camps all across the state of Alaska.One of their larger mills was built along the west side of the Yukon River,directly west of the city of Deadhorse.
It was constructed at the bottom of a small mountain nearby named Mount Krakarov, also known as Dark Mountain by the Inupiat Alaskan Natives, who believed that it was home to evil spirits and demons, and was considered sacred and never to be entered.
On January 10,1975, a terrible blizzard swept across northern Alaska and the large sawmill at the bottom of Mount Krakarov was greatly affected, the entire facility was surrounded by up to five feet of snow and all of the roads and paths were frozen and iced over, effectively stranding all of the loggers.
The situation grew worse as the facility lost power and therefore heating, allowing the building temperature to drop to dangerously low temperatures.
That night a massive avalanche from the mountain above caused additional snow to surround the entire facility and it's roads.
Days turned into weeks with help never arriving due to such terrible weather conditions, and many of the loggers died by freezing to death while others were succumbing to hunger and dehydration.
On February first, help finally managed to reach the sawmill facility, but when authorities entered the mill they found all the loggers dead, by either dehydration, starvation, or hypothermia.
However, to their horror they found many of the bodies had been feasted on, entire limbs and organs were missing from many of the bodies, worse yet, out of the hundred men that worked at the mill only ninety-nine bodies were found, the foreman's body was never recovered.
Police came to the hideous conclusion he had resorted to cannibalism to survive, and had fled into the wilderness to presumably escape the consequences of such action.
All through the month he was searched for but was never found dead nor alive, after six months he was assumed dead and the case was closed.The sawmill was shut down due to the tragic event and has sat abandoned out in the cold wilderness for thirty-one years now.
The story despite it's gruesome nature became rather famous and for several years despite the facility being closed down and out in the wilderness reporters and ghostbusters were constantly writing articles and making trips for photography or "ghostbusting" purpouses.
Though nothing was ever found throughout the years the fluctuation of tourism from people visiting the old mill lead to a popular recreational ski and snowboarding course being opened up on the east side of the river.
Several fishing and hunting lodges were also built along the river as this was also an area with high amounts of fishing and big game hunting.

THE PLOT
It is currently January eighth of 2016, and a young college student named Mark Spinelli has, with his father's permission, invited his closest friends from college to spend the whole weekend up in Alaska at his fathers hunting cabin along the east side of the Yukon River, several miles west outside of Deadhorse, promising them a fun weekend of fishing, snowboarding, skiing, hiking, and and plenty time away from their parents.
Even suggesting that if they want they journey across the river to visit the old sawmill to get their spook on.
YOUR CHARACTER
You will RP as one of Mark's friends, whom he invited up to Alaska for a fun weekend out in the wilderness, promising you a fun time and perhaps even à spooky adventure to one of Alaska's most frightening locations, after getting permission from home you packed up, caught the first flight out to Alaska and are fully prepared for what the weekend had in store for you.
Or so you think....
(I.E If you would like to create a different type of character such as a reporter or a private investigator or whatnot please let me know and we shall discuss it.)

THE CABIN
The cabin itself is large and made entirely of sturdy wood while the floors are marble and linoleum, it has two floors and a basement.
The basement holds the boiler, the fuse box, and is used also as a pantry and storage.
The first floor had a large living room which has two massive couches, chairs a plenty, and a sixty inch flat screen tv, a game room with a pool table, ping pong table, and board games.
It had has the kitchen, the dining room, and a bathroom.
The second floor has a large library, two bathrooms, a steam room within both the bathrooms, and a jacuzzi in the downstairs bathroom, four master bedrooms, and another game room, as well as a "sporting room" with Mr.Spinelli's hunting trophies and his arrangement of hunting gear, from rifles to crossbows.
The lodge has no internet access.
It has a tool shed and a garage that can hold up to four vehicles that is connected to the lodge via a small hallway.
The Yukon River is exactly half a mile to the West of the cabin and just over the bridge the Abandoned Sawmill is a mile away.
