Both family members quickly transformed into Feral Ghouls.Ī few days go by and the boy sets off to find his missing parents. What this boy’s parent didn’t know was that New Vegas’ villainous faction, Caeser’s Legion, had been dumping barrels of radioactive waste there for months. It starts out with a boy being left to tend to the farm whilst his parents go out to the nearby town for supplies. How creepy could a run-down old farmhouse be? However, a bit of digging reveals that the location is home to a dark and tragic story.
Just like the Alpine River Cabins, Matthew’s Animal Husbandry Farm is very unassuming at first glance. Matthew’s Animal Husbandry Farm (Fallout: New Vegas)Įver thought a cow was plotting to kill you? Only one resident of the Vault survived the trial, although their location and what happened to them is a mystery in itself. Burdened by the guilt of years of pointless bloodshed, four of the five survivors all agreed to commit suicide anyway. In one last cruel twist of fate, the residents discovered that their defiance was the original goal of the Vault and that their act of selflessness meant they could leave. After that, the remaining residents agreed to commit suicide by defying the Vault computer and awaiting the consequences.
Stone’s first act as overseer dissolved the election process entirely, leading to an armed coup that wiped out almost every single member of the Vault, with only five surviving the bloodshed. However, things were to come to end once Vault resident Katherine Stone came into power. This sacrifice would then become Overseer until their inevitable demise.Īs it is with most political battles, things got violent and corruption was rife. A democratic process quickly came into place, allowing dwellers to vote for a sacrifice at the end of the year. Once inside, dwellers found out that they had to sacrifice one person a year or all of the Vault’s inhabitants would die. Whilst Vault 11 isn’t the creepiest location in Fallout: New Vegas, it might just be the cruelest. Predictably, most of these experiments went wrong, leading to some truly horrific scenes when the player happens upon them.
If you’re a Fallout fan then you’ll probably be aware that the iconic Vaults were actually a series of elaborate social experiments. This is probably one of Vault Tec’s crueler experiments To be fair, if I was faced with an impending nuclear apocalypse, conserving electricity would be the least of my worries. Somebody just forgot to switch the power off before the nukes dropped. Alpine River Cabins was actually a pre-war attraction designed to draw in gullible tourists. A terminal located in a treehouse not far from the cabins reveals that all of these spooky shenanigans are actually fake. However, a bit of exploring and you’ll reveal the area’s true purpose. Paintings will spin around on the walls, womanly screams echo in the distance, and even the occasional tremor all combine to adequately freak out unsuspecting travelers. Root around in the cabins for too long and the player will start to experience supernatural phenomena. Whilst not the creepiest location in Fallout 76, these three cabins will start to spook people if they stick around for too long. In Fallout 76you may or may not have come across Alpine River Cabins. Nothing spookier than a cabin in the middle of the woods.
