I'm inspired by an anime called Mayoiga (which got terrible reviews, I think undeservedly if it's indeed a parody and not unintentionally bad).
I don't want the tone of this roleplay to be overboard silly, such as randomly pulling out a rubber chicken while in their underwear, shouting "leeroy jenkins!", and slapping the villain to death. No, I want something more subtly funny, like the reader would be questioning their sanity if this is indeed a parody or not rather than it only being a clear comedy through and through. Basically, the characters likely have weird quirks and make stupid decisions and we make fun of stuff in the genre, etc. Maybe plot points are built up like they will be important and then just fall by the wayside or turn out to be hilariously anticlimactic. Red herrings all over the place, so that all of us can play a red herring if we desire and even I don't know who's really in league with the evil forces.
The plot is that our characters all see a mysterious add for a vacation hotspot out in the mountains in the middle of nowhere. It's possible our characters were the only ones to see the add because it's haunted or whatever. Maybe it's never made clear. What we do know is that once we arrive it appears long run down and we hear mysterious noises out in the trees. Our tires are all slashed so escape is too dangerous at the moment. The roleplay involves us trying to survive until help arrives or perhaps try to escape on our own. However, this roleplay is free form so it's up to the characters to decide what to do, no matter how stupid. I want groups to form that are at odds with each other due to paranoia and whatnot.
Anyone interested? Also, feel free to suggest a name for the roleplay.
