Spectral Zoetrope

In the late 1800's moving pictures swept the world. At it's peak a traveling Zoetrope show came to the newly built town of Mercy Falls, and everyone came to see it. As the show ended, the guests began to see flames from the roof and the thick smoke that had been slowly filling the room while they were watching the show. In a panic to escape a they were horrified to find out the doors were locked. From the outside. They were trapped. After the fire, nothing remained of the town or it's residents. Nothing, except the Zoetrope, which sat untouched in a pile of ash where the town once stood.
