The Hathian Observer has had it brought to our attention that there have been a string of murders down in Laveau and the Backwaters. These murders, seemingly ritualistic in nature are possibly indicative of a serial killer or a cult operating out in the area.

Before reader you laugh at this, consider that our ex-reporter John found himself along with other colleagues in the middle of some cult ritual down that way. You can read more here…

Our reporters were informed by Laveau Sheriff Department Detective Nikki Derryth about these cases and we’ve been asked to inform our readers both about the threat and to ask for you to trawl your memories, your CCTV and your network to help bring peace to the dead, two of whom have not yet been identified.

Remember reader, that every victim in Hathian and beyond is someone’s son, daughter, mother, wife or more… people had lives, they had loves and they didn’t deserve to have theirs ended in a ritualistic murder. Please, read through our facts and thoughts below and then contact the Detective on her phone ((IC listed in article)) if you can help.

Victim 1 – Francesca Smith

Francesca was murdered in horrible circumstances. Without making this sensationalist for the sake of it she suffered traumatic and fatal injuries with a large bladed weapon, possibly a sword. She was found decreased in the graveyard by the Asylum. It appears that she was likely killed at the Asylum. A photo of this location is our cover image.

Victim 2 – Jane Doe

This female victim was found at the Wedding Bells Church. The brutality perpetrated against her was even worse than that against Francesca. As well as extensive trauma to her body, the following was carved into her:

“It’s playtime – C.C”

Carved wounds on the victim

In addition, her fingerprints had been removed, religious paraphernalia (a cross) was found about her body and further mutilation including the word ‘ Putain (French for ‘whore’) had been carved on her along with what might have been a crude attempt to carve eyes onto her eyelids.

For this Jane Doe, it appears the killer or killers may have removed some of her hair, possibly for a ritual or as a souvenir. The detective indicated that there were at least two perpetrators of this crime based on forensic evidence. It does not appear that she was murdered here, but rather transported to this location.

Victim 3 – Jane Done 2

This female victim, a blond woman around 5ft 5 inches in her late teens to early 20s was also found near the Wedding Bells Church, specifically the graveyard. Again, it appears that she was transported to this location.

The level of violence against this victim was also severe with extensive ritualistic mutilation.

Please Help

Reader, we at the Observer know that helping Law Enforcement can be frowned upon, we also know that many law enforcement officers are not people you’d want to turn to for help. Whether it’s their torture dungeons or their abuse of civilians. Never-the-less, nothing bad about Detective Nikki Derryth has come across our desk and we believe you should consider the three woman murdered and ask yourself if holding onto information that might prevent your wife, girlfriend or partner being murdered is worth it. If you therefore have any information about a cult, or perhaps a friend or colleague acting strangely please let the Detective know.

Further, please watch yourself in Backwaters, especially around the Asylum and the Church. While it appears bodies were transported to the Church location, that means that the cult or killers are often present. Carry a weapon and be ready to run.
