Township

**The Township** is a mysterious area in Middle America that traps all those who enter it. It is home to mysterious humanoid Creatures that emerge at night and hunt any human caught outside after dark, as well as countless other mysteries and horrors.

## Geography

The entrance into the Township is marked by the road with the Fallen Tree, near which there are loudly cawing crows. After seeing this, travelers are trapped, and the road leads to the main street of the Town upon which the Township is centered. Any attempt to keep driving merely leads the traveler back into the center of Town on a loop. The Town consists of a number of houses and buildings where most of the people who become trapped live. Uphill from the Town is Colony House, a palatial mansion where a smaller amount of people choose to live in  a commune. Underneath the Town are the Tunnels where the Creatures sleep during the day.

The Town is surrounded by dense forests, which contain even more mysteries. These include Farway Trees, which have the ability to transport people to various locations. Other notable locations include the Lighthouse and the Dungeon, the latter being the lair of the Musicbox Monster.

## Mysteries

There are many mysterious features to the Township, which the trapped inhabitants attempt to explore. The most notable is the  nocturnal humanoid Creatures, who viciously kill any human they get their hands on. Furthermore, some people who get trapped, such as Victor, Sara Myers, Jade Herrera, Tabitha Matthews and her son Ethan, are able to see visions that do not seem to appear to or affect others. Victor, Sara and Ethan have all seen a particular vision of a Boy in White, while Jade repeatedly sees a mysterious symbol and Tabitha encounters Ghoulish Children. The Township is also home to a malevolent entity associated with a music box, and disturbing visions of a Ballerina. Not all of these mysteries are evil however, with several characters being impossibly healed of medical conditions during their time.

The Township is not in a fixed location, but seems to be confined to the United States, including Alaska and Hawaii. Travelers from all regions of the United States have become trapped in Town, but none have come from other North American countries, such as Canada or Mexico.

## Trivia

* Neither the Town nor its environs are ever named on screen. Thus the Town and the broader area around it are differentiated here by these two names. The Town refers to the Town proper, the area where most people live under Boyd's leadership, while the Township refers to the broader area, which includes the Town, Colony House, the Forest, and all the locations within.
* The Town/Township are often referred to as "Fromville" by fans online.
* The letters above the Clinic's (formerly the school) doors seem to spell West Falls Elementary & High School, although some letters in the actual name are missing, so this is a best guess. If accurate, it could be the name of the Town itself.
