The Finale

Never make a deal with the devil. As with stories about the genie who grants you wish – you will get what you wished for, but not what you wanted.

In the finale of the musical by the Amazing Dalmatian Euphonium Experiment, the circus troop is freed from hell and are given back their circus train. But they are ghouls – half dead, like zombies – and the train is a ghost train.

While they are free from hell, they are destined to travel across the world for all eternity as the circus of the damned. At midnight, the train speeds through a town. Dogs howl, children scream, babies cry and grownups quail.

This is what they wished for, but not what they wanted.
