Description Of Beacon Hills

Great Essays
From the eyes of the outside world, Beacon Hills has always been the typical, generic, California suburb, but from the inside eyes of such families as the McCalls, Argents, Stilinskis, Hales, Martins, and more, the town is an enigma. The city is a hub for mysteriously unexplainable spooky incidents, at least in the eyes of the perpetually clueless adults. The teens in town know. They know that three local high schoolers, Scott McCall, Allison Argent, and Stiles Stilinski have brought a force so powerful to their hometown it gave Beacon Hills a new purpose. Beacon Hills only continues to exist to sustain a human population for hauntingly magical and obscure supernatural creatures to feast on. When looking at all the events that so frequently occur there, many wonder how so many adults are unaware that their town of Beacon Hills is literally a beacon, a supernatural magnet. Werewolves, kanimas, darachs, kitsunes, banshees, chimeras, and even hellhounds are drawn to Beacon Hills, as it is the perfect setting to prey on the innocent while going virtually unnoticed by local town authorities. The city is surrounded by several acres of woods, an easy spot to lure prey and leave behind cold, lifeless corpses. Strung throughout the small, suburban town is a chain full of many abandoned mansions and factories linked by a plethora of dark, dreary alleyways.

How strange that it would be merely, “Young girls who met in small informal gatherings to discuss the future,” (Boyer Nissenbaum xx) who would send the newly colonized New England into a frenzy.
