Summary
In the intro episode for Hyperactive Ghost's season 3, Doctor BeepBoop prepares you for a trip inside her mind during Absolution Fest 2023, a 3-day (mostly) goth music festival that takes place every October in Tampa, Florida. In 2023, Beep was triggered into an awful memory of an event that took place in 1994 while she was on the cusp of just 19 years old. Beep says to be prepared for it to actually be that deep.
