Halleckton

Halleckton is a small lakeside town of about 260 permanent residents (peak estimated residence during winter was cited as approaching 400) in the mid-northern reaches of Ontario on the far side of Lake Wanapitei from Sudbury.  Population at the time of the Halleckton Event was estimated at approximately 335, of which 21 survived. It is a vacation getaway for the wealthy, formerly a logging or mining site, cut off from most of civilization except by a 'long ride on some pretty bad roads' or by air. 
== The Halleckton Event ==
The town was all but destroyed by demons after Anthony Murray hired Václav Sklár to research a portal bomb and find a way to keep the portal open. Unfortunately, he was successful. The resulting massacre is referred to as the Halleckton Event and proved to be the downfall of Anthony Murray as well as quite a number of other who fell within his influence.
The end of the event included the formation of a circular crater adjoining the lake caused by Yori taking decisive action to eliminate a number of demons that were in the mining tunnels. The flash from the creation of that crater was seen over sixty kilometers away, and the sound was heard more than five hundred kilometers away.  The size of the crater was described as hundreds of meters in diameter, with residual heat raising the temperature of the lake nearly 8 degrees (presumably Celsius, since that scale is predominantly used in Japan).
