Horror Wars
The monsters have lived among us for thousands of years¸ preying on the weak. The helpless. But mankind discovered a new weapon to fight the creatures of darkness. 'Dr. Jack' developed a way to tear the very essence of these horrors from their undead flesh and graft it into living blood and bones. For many years¸ the 'Rippers' took back the night¸ and the hunters became the hunted. The vile fiends of the world were backed into a corner¸ but under the leadership of Dracula himself¸ formed a 'Cabal' of evil to combat those who hunted them. Their timing was perfect-for the essences the Rippers stole from their prey eventually corrupted the monster hunters. The very men who created the Rippers-Moreau¸ Frankenstein¸ and even Dr. Jack himself-went mad and joined the Cabal! Now Abraham Van Helsing and his mysteriously adopted son¸ Johann¸ the Harkers¸ Witch Hunter Serious Chapel¸ and a handful of other stout hearts are all that remain of the Rippers. It is their lot to carry on the Horror War.
