===Synopsis===
The disappearances being investigated are actually caused by degenerate creatures who are the descendents of the inbred family which owned the land in Colonial times. Back in that era the family dabbled with dark magic and cannibalism and slowly became something less than human and stopped living in the family home preferring a subterranean existence. They still live on in this terrible way, entirely unbeknownst to the human inhabitants of the town.

The job of the Investigators is to unearth these creatures as the true murderers in the Motel case and pursue them back to their underground world in order to put a stop to them.
