While on the surface it seemed like an island with an intensely strong solar energy, truly the image of a summer sea, if one looked just a little beneath the surface, all sorts of evil spirits were coiled in the shadows.
And the master of these evil spirits commanded them thus, “Scare away all those who visit this island. Through the rumors they spread, make it so that no one approaches this island.”
The evil spirits were faithful to their master’s instructions.
Sailors who carelessly landed on the island, seeing only its outward appearance, experienced various hidden horrors throughout the island and fled crying and wailing, and those rumors quickly spread far and wide.
Sailors, already sensitive to superstitions, avoided this place, calling it cursed. Thus, peace and tranquility came to the island.
Occasionally, not-quite-human creatures would suddenly emerge from the sea and pick fights, but the stupid and dull fish-people, despite their large numbers, were no match for the evil spirits.
Their master wasn’t the type to name each individual defense mechanism, so the evil spirits used their own characteristics as names to distinguish each other.
Among them, the defeat of “Haunted Mansion” quickly spread to the other evil spirits.
