Let's get to work!
So, I - once again - wanna try and do a RPG. I have a ton of story ideas, but I don't know which to pick......so I'm gonna ask you guys to vote on which one to do :) and the one with most votes will be made. You can vote two times :)

Silent Hill: Spring Break
 
On their way to Sunnydale, California; a group of college friends, after suffering a rather nasty car accident, find themselves trapped in the 'abandoned' town of Silent Hill. A town that's been plagued with both death and darkness for the past hundreds of years. The friends must band together and face the darkness head-on if they wanna escape the threaded town; and that means coming to terms with some particularly nasty demons from their individual pasts.

The Swan Dive Hotel
 
The Swan Dive Hotel has been around since the construction of Blackwood Falls back in the 1700s. It was built, owned, and run by the poorest family in the village: The McGuires. As the years flew by, the hotel slowly changed from a rundown shack with four rooms into one of the biggest and most beloved hotels in the country. Celebrities, such as Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley, insisted on staying there whenever their work required them to pass through town. By the late 1800s, the McGuires were one of the weathiest families on the planet...
But on May 1st, 1985, their luck went sour. Late in the evening, during a glamorous charity event, the hotel went up in flames; and all one thousand-and-something costumers and employees were killed, being unable to get the doors open. The only survivors were owners, who were outside greeting guests when the tragedy occurred. All they could do was watch helplessly as their family-owned hotel turned to ash, along with all their loyal and valued costumers.
Now, 30years later, the latest descent of the McGuire family has decided to re-open the hotel. They've had it rebuilt and refurnished and, while a good several floors are now missing, it looks almost just as good as it did back in it's hay day. At first things are wonderful for the new owners. Their guests are lovely, their employees are hard working, and they're making way more money back then they expected too. But the blissfulness is short lived, and soon people start disappearing and showing up later, either on the verge of death or dead all together. The new owner must banned together and find out who's doing this and, along the way, find out what exactly happened all those years ago.

The Rising Dead
 
For the past several, several hundred years, people have been preparing themselves for the predicted 'end of the world' apocalypse set to occur at the beginning 2012. They prepared for floods and earthquakes; they've prepared for the earth to just shatter to pieces or become completely engulfed in water. They prepared for just about everything and anything...except for what actually happened. When the clock struck twelve, and 2012 officially began, the dead rose from the ground. When people turned to glance out their windows, they expected to see either astroids falling from the sky or a giant tidal wave rushing towards their home...not their deceased loved one limping towards them with raised hands and snapping jaws. The world was quickly thrown into chaotic chaos.
Now, in 2015, the world has become segregated. Every inhabited location now has an electrical fence built around it. Every house a closet full of weapons and emergency backpacks, and every shelter has lightweight medication to treat the injured and a padded room to study the will-be-infected.
A group of survivors are forced to flee when their town, after suffering a power outage, becomes overrun with starving zombies. We follow the group (which is made up of lovers, friends, family and eneimes) try to fight their way through the world of the dead in search of a new place to call home.

The True Fairytales
 
Not every fairytale ends with a happy ending. The prince doesn't always get the girl, and the hero doesn't always slay the bad guy. Sometimes the wolf wins, and sometimes the puppet lies. Sometime the shoe doesn't fit, and sometimes she doesn't wake up. Throughout the years, fairytales have been twisted and glamorized and moralized till they're nothing but then forced happy endings and one-dimensional characters you know you should care about but in actuality don't.
This is something our hero finds out after stumbling across a book named 'The Real Stories'. Upon opening the book, the young hero finds themselves brought into a world they thought they knew but really didn't. It turns out, not every princess is a sweatheart, not every prince is heroic, and not every villain is purely evil without any short of motive.
Watch and read as TyeSays brings a new take and new spin on everyone's favorite fairytale classics, ranging from 'Cinderella' to 'The Little Mermaid' to even 'The Snow Queen'. The stories will have a mix of brutality, gore, surprises, fairy dust and magic. Who'll still be standing, and who shall be lying six-feet under by the time we reach 'Happily Ever After'? Read and find out.

Enchanted High
 
The Enchanted High School is the place all the princes and princesses go to become Kings and Queens. It's where all the fairies go to become wishes stars and fairy godmothers. Its where the sons and daughters of our favorite fairytales go to take their parents place.
In the mountains is where the school for villains is (Blackwater High) it's where witches and warlocks go to learn how to brew and transform. Its where the vain and spoiled go to become wicked and cruel.
Watch as the lively and somewhat chaotic children of your favorite fairytales try and accept their fate, or try and go against it. Theres twists, there's turns, and lots of magic.

The Rising Demi-Gods
 
There's a war raging on in the sky above. The Gods and Goddesses are trying to protect their home from the black magic of Hades. After momentarily chasing him off, the God's and Goddesses decide to prepare for the upcoming inevitable war...by seeking out their demi-God children on earth and teaching them how to fight, defend, seek and kill. Blood shall spill, heads shall role, and by the end...only a lucky few shall be left standing.

I like this idea, even if I ultimately feel it's up to the writer's decision considering how much of an indecisive fuck I am, but lemme read & get back with you.

The reason I'm asking you all to vote is cause I wanna do all of them equally and can't pick just one :( I have ideas and excitement for all them.

Can't wait to see which one gets the most votes

"This isn't over...this isn't over by a long shot!"
Silent Hill: Spring Break-Kind of comes off like a slasherific approach to the SH brand, but if you know your mythology, then I don't see why you shouldn't do it as it sounds like it could make way for creepy fun, as long as you're not throwing in the greatest hits like the films did. As much as I like the first film, the creatures should be a creatively terrifying representation of the characters' respective psyches.

The Swan Dive Hotel-As much as I can get behind elaborate backstories like that, it would be nice to have some indication as to what I should be expecting @ the nearly dead or dead victims. I realize that it probably isn't 100% established yet & the mystery is a big part of it, but supernatural ideas can either be a hit or miss with me, so I'm just sharing my questions.

The Rising Dead-As BEYOND DONE as I am with zombies, this idea felt like the one that you could build up the most by differentiating between what we've already seen before & writing the characters in a compelling way. Could border on serious for some people, but it'll probably be better than that of The Walking Dead if you put your own creative spin on the undead & breathe life into the characters we give you.

The True Fairytales-I'm always for exposing whitewashing like these have experienced, but my issues with this idea lie in the necessity with which we'd have to remain within the constraints of each respective fairytale. People would probably fight over whichever their fav princess was & unless you blend the stories much like Into The Woods, it'd more or less be contained & people would be waiting until their time got to shine. Nonetheless, I do dig the idea.

Enchanted High-If it wasn't for the Disney Channel original similar to this, I'd be up for it a little more. That & my partiality for horror makes things a little iffy for me, but it sounds like it could make way for an intriguing subversion of what's to be expected from fairytales in a lighthearted way, so don't take this as writing it off.

The Rising Demi-Gods-It feels much more like a rough idea than something that was fully fleshed out. While I'm a fan of mythological figures, there isn't much to go off of, so unfortunately this didn't resonate as well as the others did.

Probably a tie between The Rising Dead & The True Fairytales, despite my discrepancies. :)

When you walk into the room. You pull me close and we start to move
And we're spinning with the stars above. And you lift me up in a wave of love
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth? Ooh heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first. We'll make heaven a place on earth
