"Crime ran rampant through the streets, but Harold and Benny played every club and dive to spread that sweet sound of music to every ear that could hear.
However...
Crime breeds fear, and fear feeds the dark. The ghosts and ghasts reach out and eat more than the boys can beat! When music alone can't stop these bad bones, it's time for a little balacera!"
