Nightfall II

Nightfall II (October 1991) was the first year to re brand the event officially as Nightfall. This was also the first year to focus on the story of the "Township of Nightfall who sole existence depends on maintaining the Asylum of Goulliard".

Though the first stunt show presentation (The Gothic West) has been said to be demonstrated as early as 1990 it is Nightfall II that divulges more information in the form a prequel presentation titled Death at Dusk.

Death at Dusk depicts the wedding ceremony of Sheriff Randal Miller and Marietta Leapould (Daughter of Reverend Malaki Leapould). The wedding is interrupted by the nefarious Dr. Jebediah Hyde with the assistance of Asylum Guard Cavanaugh and inmate Clampett who has just been sword in a Deputy Sheriff by the Tubac representatives in order to relieve Miller of his duties due to, according to Hyde, charges of "conspiracy and high treason against the federal government".

An argument against Reverend Malaki and Dr. Hyde becomes heated and the Dr. guns him down.

With the help of Sheriff Clampett and Cavanaugh The Dr. acts as judge, jury, and executioner for Miller and hangs him until dead in front of the Mission church where the wedding procession had begun.

Marietta, traumatized by the whole event is committed to the Asylum of Goulliard.

Later, it is revealed that Dr. Hyde has reanimated Mr. Miller as what appears to be an undead creature and bumbling muscle to service him in his scientific research.
