Season 12

Now residing in the ancient Castle Lupa, the survivors of Bjorn Bjergsen's massacre in Granite Falls seem to have regained their normal lives. Friendships are built, careers are pursued, and love is made. But the shadow of the past is still lingering amongst them...

## Plot

On her way home from work, Leah Frank is chased by Bjorn Bjergsen, cloaked and masked. Recognizing the appearance of the menace, she flees to her brother Joseph's hideout in Brindleton Bay: Castle Lupa.

There, the surviving members of the Moose Lodge residents, are going on with their daily lives, away from their family homes and trying to stay under Bjorn's radar, while the law enforcement is looking for him.

While Jin and Derek have made their relationship official and Sunny is becoming an environmentalist, Joseph is unable to properly take care of his son Thomas because of the death of his girlfriend Sasha. Leah and Mei-Lin take responsibility for the toddler, while the latter is also opening up the household to a few housemates in desperate need for a residence, to the protest of the current residents. The first to arrive is Katy Leroy, followed soon by Arban Otgonbayar, Kierra Vargas, Rina Rasheed, Luano Kekoa and Alyssa Frontman.

Mei-Lin befriends Riya Turan, assistant to the Mayor of Brindleton Bay, and agrees to visit a wedding ceremony of another newly moved in family. Joined by Jacob, Sierra and Jin, she attends the wedding of Lauren and Marty Keaton.

Following a date, Derek discovers he has left his phone in the bathrooms at Magnolia Blossom. He and Jin return after visiting Jin's mother, Suke, only to be attacked by Bjorn. They manage to escape in the snowstorm, but Derek is badly beaten up.

Sunny rescues a sick, stray cat during a visit to the Brindleton Lighthouse, giving it medication for ticks and flees at the veterinarian, before letting it go to continue his free life. Sierra and Katy start to grow closer to each other, but take things slow. Sunny notices the chemistry between the pair and catches herself feeling jealous. Leah visits her ex-boyfriend Jared Frio, attempting to reconcile, and Alyssa gets dumped by her girlfriend Yuki Behr. Arban and Kierra start hooking up, and eventually catch feelings for each other and enter a relationship. Luano expresses to Arban his feeling of shame of still being a virgin. They attempt to get Luano a fling at a nightclub in San Myshuno, but find no one fitting. After a talk to Rina and Derek, he realizes that when the time is right it will happen. Joseph visits Sasha's ex Joey Priest, asking him to give back Sasha's lost family necklace, but Joey has lost the necklace a long time ago, believing it to be stolen.

Joseph meets Jeff Myers in the Salty Paws Saloon, drunkenly mourning over his deceased wife Eva. When Jeff discovers that Joseph lives with Mei-Lin Preston, he tells him about Mei-Lin's past and about her affair with Bjorn Bjergsen. After Sierra is attacked by Bjorn, Joseph confronts Mei-Lin about her past with Bjorn. She accidentaly gives away where he used to live, and Joseph and Leah decide to visit the house to maybe find out where he could be hiding. Mei-Lin attempts to stop them, believing it to be too dangerous, but they go anyway.

Joseph and Leah travel to Bjorn's house in Windenburg, finding it abandoned. Joseph finds a suitcase filled with dark cloaks and masks. Suddenly, Bjorn bursts into the house and grabs Leah. After a short standoff between him and Joseph, Bjorn slits Leah's throat and flees the scene, leaving a frozen Joseph.

The following day, no sign of life from Joseph and Leah is seen from the Castle Lupa residents. Mei-Lin receives a surprise visit from Miriam Block, who's in town to organize Mei-Lin's upcoming birthday with Jacob. That night, they celebrate Mei-Lin's birthday in Club Calico, with friends and neighbors old and new. But after the candles of the birthday cake are blown out, the dark, masked shape appears at the party.

A bloodbath follows, resulting in the deaths of Alyssa, Miriam's husband; Roy Sampson, Makenna Bermudez, Dustin Broke, and Pierce Cheung. Deputy Barrett Kline arrives at the scene and overpowers the cloaked man in a fight, but the shape manages to escape. On his escape, he knocks out Arban and stabs Kierra to death, before fleeing the scene.

The surviving guests are left devastated and mourning. Joseph returns to Brindleton Bay and witnesses the aftermath of the bloodbath. Mei-Lin discusses with Deputy Kline that it's been enough and that they need to take down Bjorn for good.
