Word has spread far and wide about 'On The Cobbles', the Victorian age's ultimate mixed martial arts competition!
From the dark lanes of London, blackened by soot and choaking smog, to the genteel tea shops of England's country villages, more and more groups meet in secret to experience the thrill of the dual.
Be warned!!
This week's challenger may seem meek and mild but she brings a sinister talent! An educated mistress of the dark arts, she brings the power of the Ouija board and all it can muster. What she lacks in strength she more than makes up for with her spectral attacks!!!
And now, in her desperation to claw her way to the top of the heap she has unlocked a door we fear no-one can close!
Follow the flashing lights to her town house in Kensington (You should see the strobe lighting blasting through her dining room window!).
Can your fighters stand up to the power she has unleashed?
Will you have to summon a dead warrior yourself and bring some polter-powers of your own?!
Does anyone know a good priest that can sort this mess out?!?!
What time does the movie start???
