Lu Ban first went online to search for information about Miskatonic.
There wasn't much about the city on the internet, aside from film festival-related reports, just a handful of travel blogs.
Located in Massachusetts, this city initially thrived on agriculture, but as historical sites nearby were excavated, agricultural development was somewhat restricted, and the whole city gradually fell into stagnation.
Miskatonic University was the only university there, established at the end of the 17th century, making it an institution with a long history. Its more excellent programs included archaeology, history, psychology, etc. Considering the city's decline and the dwindling number of applicants, the university came up with the idea of hosting a film festival to attract visitors.
