How it begins
The Baits Hotel, a small house in the hills, would be a lovely place if there weren't a killer snow monster out there. Everything here is warm and welcoming, except for the killer snow monster out there, which is cold and murderous.
I, Jessica and Jerry came to spend the weekend. When we arrived, it apparently had already been snowing for a few days, and there was nobody inside, except for the decapitated body of the hopefully dead owner. The windows were all barricaded, and some of the doors were locked. We heard a noise from the outside and locked ourselves in, hopelessly watching through a narrow slit in one of the barricades as the huge Snowman ripped off a poor woman's head and ate her body, not leaving anything behind. We almost immediately concluded that he was a possible threat.
...damn, I have to get out of here.
