Halloween Universe

The Halloween Universe is a universe that encompasses each of the campaigns that take place during the Halloween Season in a type of Special-Event Campaign; usually run using Monster of the Week. The Halloween Universe was created by the Micky Soul, but was continued and further developed by the Maddie Soul two years later. Since then, the universe has expanded to contain the events of three campaigns.

This universe is also one of the only universes to have an officially recognized non-canon campaign, as making campaigns non-canon is generally frowned upon. However, an exception has been made for the Halloween Universe due to the nature of the campaign and how it expands upon the events at the beginning of Halloween II. The non-canon Halloween Time Fuckers (2017) is one of the campaigns recognized by the Halloween Universe, and was the first one to be created.

It should also be noted that despite several locations, areas, and themes being based off of locations from Earthbound, this does not take place within the Mother Universe, and for the most part, is not associated with the Mother Universe.

## Campaigns

The M-RAI database has compiled a full-list of campaigns that take place within the Halloween Universe. They can be split into the two distinct categories of Canonical Campaigns, and Non-Canonical Campaigns. The Halloween Universe is one of the very few universes that recognizes non-canonical campaigns as discarded events that exist out of the normal flow of time.

### Canonical Campaigns

The Halloween Universe has three official installments, forming a Halloween-themed anthology series of stories that take place within the same universe. Some installments may be direct sequels to previous installments, forming individual story arcs or sagas.

* Halloween II (1989)
* Halloween III (1991)
* Halloween IV (2001)
* Halloween D&D (2016)

### Extra-canonical Campaigns

These campaigns exist outside of the regular flow of time, and are thus non-canonical. They primarily do not connect with any other installments in the Universe, but are still recognized by virtue of serving as a Halloween-based campaign that is not considered part of the main series for one reason or another.

## Structure

### The Horror Beyond

The Horror Beyond is the final plane in the Halloween Universe, sitting in darkness of the eternal depths. It holds connections to both the Hallowed Nebulous and the Storyteller's Realm, itself. These connections take the form of tears at the edges of planar space, forming pathways between the two planes. As a result, the life that resides within The Horror Beyond is incredibly old; descending from the offspring of the incomprehensible beings that reside within the Storyteller's Realm. These beings tend to have a powerful influence over the greater Mortal Realm, their will manifesting in the form of the supernatural. However, without a direct pathway into the Mortal Realm, a being of The Horror Beyond may not cross over.

### The Hallowed Nebulous

The Hallowed Nebulous is a plane that exists between the Horror Beyond and the Mortal Realm, holding connections to both of its neighboring planes. However, it is less connected to its ancient predecessor than it is to its more modern successor, the Mortal Realm. It is within this realm that the source of the supernatural beings cast upon the Mortal Realm dwells. The essence of chaos, the Hallowed Nebulous is an eternal primordial soup that absorbs the metaphysical concepts and ideas spawned by the Mortal Realm and gives birth to life anew. Many of these creatures are created as avatars of hunger and fear. The walls dividing planar space between the Hallowed Nebulous and the Mortal Realm occasionally dissolve, allowing these creatures to cross over at the Mortal Realm's darkest hours.

The creation of The Shape resulted in permanent rifts in planar space, allowing the Hallowed Nebulous to cross over with the Mortal Realm.

### The Mortal Realm

The Mortal Realm is a plane that exists at the very center of the Halloween Universe, housing all of the mortal souls upon the fruitful planet Earth. It is where the whole of humanity resides. Together, humanity spawns metaphysical concepts that leak into the primordial soup that resides within the Hallowed Nebulous. It is the true power of mankind to fend off the vile demons it creates, hiding in the darkness. It is what has allowed them to create, cities, medicine, and explore the horrors beyond their plane of origin.
