Old Dunwich

New Queenstown
Build around a grand cathedral that stands towering over the city. South of West Point, and next to Fallen Heights is New Queenstown. A bit like the slums or red light district, New Queenstown has fallen on some hard times due to drugs, prostitution, and gangs.

Fallen Heights
Fallen Heights is located east of New Queenstown and southeast of Old Dunwich. Touching on both the Ancient Pines Grove and the Suicide Woods, it is one of the richer neighborhoods of Baskerville County. Jeff the Killer roams the streets of this town.

The Black Forest
The Black Forest is the haunt of Slenderman. The Black Forest has some abandoned buildings within it, a cabin said to be cursed and an old mansion home to many creepers. Wild wolves, hog and deer call the Black Forest home.

The Suicide Woods
The southern most wood is the Suicide Wood. Similar to Aokigahara in Japan, about 100 suicides occurred there every year. The trees are often found with nooses on them. Due to the wind-blocking density of the trees and an absence of nearly any wildlife, the forest is known for being exceptionally quiet.

The Ancient Pines Grove
The Ancient Pines Grove is where many people go camping. Teeming with wildlife, unlike the Suicide Woods. A small river flows here from the Dark Forest which leads to a lake. The lake is a hotspot of paranormal activity.
