TOP SECRET (For FreakFam Eyes Only)
For centuries, whispers have tiptoed around the globe. Weird smells in the night. Strange sounds in the dark. Entire junkyards mysteriously rearranged into banana-skin castles.
Scholars scoffed. Governments denied. Scientists threw up their hands. Parents rolled their eyes.
But the rumours kept coming. The myth lived on.
Whispers of the Sneaky Freaks have always lurked at the edges of human history. Odours with no perceptible origin. Chaos with no culprit. Haunting shadows too small and too darn fast to be explained.
Most laughed them off. Some trembled in fear. Some - in seats of power and with hidden agendas - worked extra hard to keep the truth buried.
The First Incarnation: The Freakiverse Council
In 1872, after the Railway Tunnel Papers incident shook Victorian England, Her Majesty instructed her most trusted agents to form the Freakiverse Council. Their task? To hush. To deny. To stamp out. To bury every shred of evidence of the creatures now known as Sneaky Freaks. Every leak, every sighting, every ‘accidentally discovered’ stink cloud was stamped TOP SECRET: Her Majesty’s Eyes Only (by Royal Order of The Freakiverse Council).
From then on, all evidence was catalogued, classified and locked away in dusty ledgers in tunnels deep beneath London. The Council’s motto - ‘At Her Majesty’s Service / Custodians of the Unnatural.’ For almost 100 years, this shadowy, royally-appointed Council declared itself the ‘defender of normality’ and squashed any whisper - any trace - of Sneaky Freak existence.
The Rival: The Federal Freak Containment Unit
Nearly a century later, the Council’s steely grip on all things Sneaky Freak was challenged. Back in 1974, a boy in Kansas fell into what became known as the GasBlast Coma - a news story so outrageous, so stinky and so disgusting, it demanded attention. The incident quickly went global. President Gerald Ford, in response to increasing public unrest and official pressure, secretly formed the Federal Freak Containment Unit (FFCU).
Suited officials, bewildered but determined scientists, endless red tape - their remit was simple: find the Freaks, catch the Freaks. Their success rate? Zero. Not one Sneaky Freak was ever captured. The rivalry with their British counterpart, the long established Freakiverse Council, grew bitter. The FFCU went to ridiculous lengths - their army of spies grew, their lies multiplied, the expense beggared belief and the cover-ups grew more and more diabolical.
The Rebellion: The League of SneakSeekers
But neither the Freakiverse Council, nor the FFCU, could have ever seen Sophie Starling coming…
In England in 1975, at just six years old, she watched as her father - a respected Freakiverse Council Freak Hunter-turned-denier - burned his cache of research notes at the Council’s orders. But Sophie snatched the charred pages from the fire just in time.
From that historic day - with guts, determination and absolute secrecy - Sophie slowly rebuilt the truth, piece by piece. Even as she grew into an adult, she refused to let the FreakLore legend die. She investigated rumours, documented SneakLeaks and carefully examined images. She chased whispers and shadows across continents. Over time, with a loyal band of other committed Freak Believers, she formed what we now are: The League of SneakSeekers.
We are the rebels. The Freakleblowers. The shining light that exposes the lies and reveals the truth.
Our mission? To introduce the REAL Sneaky Freaks to the only ones brave enough and clever enough to handle it. -> Kids.
