Cast

Swats [LAST NAME REDACTED] Age: 42 Pronouns: he/him The carnival's deranged ringmaster. Why is he even doing all of this to begin with...?

Electric Fizz Smith Age: 19 | Status: Alive Pronouns: he/they/soda A full-time college student working a very stressful part-time job, Fizz is the walking epitome of anxiety and stress. However, he soon realizes that he has a hidden talent, one that even surpasses the capabilities of their deranged captor. Will Fizz get crushed under the pressure, or will soda finally learn to stand up for themselves and those they care about?

Flicker Age: 14 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/they The youngest of the carnival’s competitors, Flicker is skittish and shy, never usually straying far from her teammates. She seems to not only be frightened by her current situation, but everything around her, as if she’d never been around other objects before. It's natural for her to be scared of the carnival, but is there a deeper reason behind this little lighter’s fears?

Connie Baker Age: 34 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/he Connie may seem intimidating at a glance, but don’t let his appearance fool you! She’s a gentle and warm person, who aspires to be a parent one day. Worried about Fizz and Flicker, she takes them under his wing, with the promise to protect them. She’s unsure of her chances of surviving here in the carnival, but he’s determined to make sure these two kids make it out alive.

Kiki Drewitt Age: 27 | Status: Alive Pronouns: they/it Before their abduction, Kiki was a paranormal investigator, who spent hours investigating areas that they believed had ties to the supernatural. They’re incredibly intelligent and observant, but the line between passion and obsession becomes even more blurred at the carnival. After all, there's more than meets the eye here…

Cocoa Lane Age: 30 | Staus: Alive Pronouns: they/it In this cast of colorful characters, Cocoa is probably one of the more realistic ones of the bunch. That doesn’t mean they take everyone’s crap, though—they’re brutish and snarky, with a hell of a left hook to match. Despite its slightly violent nature, though, they’re fairly chill and generally easy to get along with—provided you don’t get on their bad side.

Portland Bane Age: 19 | Status: Alive Pronouns: he/they This mushroom may be anxious and kind of lonely, but that’s not all to him! Portland is a very clever and creative engineering student, who is very passionate about tinkering with things and making new inventions. He has his doubts regarding his chances of survival, but despite what his mind tells him, he’s trying his best.

Candi Sugars Age: 22 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/her Candi may be a fairly popular internet influencer, but she’s anything but superficial! She’s super duper sweet, both inside and out, and she’s constantly oozing with energy. Candi’s doing her best to stay positive in this incredibly stressful situation, but can she avoid cracking under the pressure?

Wafflez Yap Age: 20 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/he/they Wafflez may be a super duper hyperactive scenecore enthusiast, but that’s not all to her! She may seem like a bit of an airhead, but she’s fiercely intelligent and strategic, easily the smartest out of the carnival’s participants. Like many of the others, she wants to try to find a way out, but like Swats, she has motives of her own…

Honey Carmela Age: 23 | Status: Alive Pronouns: they/them Honey tends to come off as constantly confused and scatterbrained. That is fairly accurate, but they’re also incredibly literarily gifted, being a highly praised fanfiction author online. They may not have a lot of talents that could prove useful here, but that doesn’t mean they’re going to give up!

Stabby Sharps Age: 20 | Status: Alive Pronouns: they/he/she Confident and curious, Stabby has a lifelong obsession with horror and the occult, which has gotten her and his friends/roommates into some very peculiar situations. She’s really smart when it comes to creating strategies, which comes in clutch in the carnival’s challenges, but her intelligence often clashes with her chaotic neutral nature. That doesn’t mean that it’s necessarily a bad thing, however…

Kernel Allen Age: 23 | Status: Alive Pronouns: he/it When it comes to first appearances, Kernel doesn’t fare well. It’s very socially awkward, so he doesn’t do well with interacting with people he doesn’t know. Despite his appearance, though, he’s very sweet, and wants nothing more than to get as many people out of the carnival as possible. That doesn’t mean you should underestimate it, though…

Cam Blackburn Age: 25 | Status: Alive Pronouns: he/they Cam is anxious to an almost unhealthy degree, worrying about literally anything and everything in his life. Though despite his severe anxiety, Cam is incredibly loyal to his friends, his killer intuition getting them out of all sorts of trouble. However, his intuition isn’t the only killer thing about him…

Vani Winters Age: 22 | Status: Alive Pronouns: they/them The embodiment of every high school mean girl, Vani is cocky and cold-hearted, and isn’t afraid to use unethical means in order to get what they want. With their ally Shade by their side, Vani won’t hesitate to lead everyone around them to their dooms if it guarantees their survival. But will Vani’s manipulative ways prove to be their undoing, or will they lead them to their freedom?

Shade Wynn Age: 21 | Status: Alive Pronouns: he/him Shade is Vani’s right-hand man, a sassy and brash bully type. However, Shade isn’t all he appears to be, as he genuinely cares for Vani and considers them his best friend, even though they could really care less. He’s always let Vani take the lead in everything, at their insistence, but what will happen when they take things too far?

Cellia Cairns Age: 20 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/her On the surface, Cellia seems self-absorbed and stuck-up, but you couldn’t be any further from the truth! Sweet and selfless, Cellia is the complete opposite of the super-popular mean girl stereotype, only wishing the best for everyone around her. But will she retain that mindset when two of the most manipulative contestants drag her into their clique?

The Lights Age: 20 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/her (Red), they/them (Yellow), he/him (Green) The Traffic Light System—or simply the Lights to everyone else—make quite the team! They haven't had the best life, but the three of them still have each other's back, no matter what! Things may be uncertain and scary here in the carnival, but that doesn't mean things won't be okay in the end! ...Right?

Ten Stone Age: 19 | Status: Alive Pronouns: he/they Ten is often an object of few words—not because they don't have a lot to say, but because they don't know how to put their thoughts together. He’d love to say that he's smarter than he seems, but more often than not his plans…well, don't go as planned.

Sunny Belle Age: 25 | Status: Alive Pronouns: she/they Sunny lives up to her name—a bubbly and sweet young sunflower who is kind to even the rudest of objects. She sees the good in everything and everyone around her, including her own captor. With someone like Swats, will kindness truly save Sunny from facing a tragic end?
