Once upon a time... you died.
blackshuck.net
So you have gone and gotten yourself killed. Or perhaps you died peacefully in your sleep. Whatever your story may have been, it doesn't really matter — you're dead now.
Black Shuck is not Hell. Nor is it Heaven. Of course, you may come across some in your travels that will try to argue this with you. So what exactly is Black Shuck then? To put it simply, The Shuck is an infinite world. A realm where all dead souls collect once they have lived out their lives.
Some may find Black Shuck not much different from the world which they parted from. Forests, mountains, cities, cars, trains, planes... they all belong to The Shuck. However, what they may find disturbing is the way that time loops. Days repeat themselves. The weather never changes. If it rains at 5:09 PM over the town square; it will rain over the town square at that exact same time... every single day. Like a broken record, Black Shuck is doomed to forever repeat.
The only beings that are free from this infinite loop are Black Shuck's inhabitants. Unlike the world which they now belong to, they are free to make their own choices and to do something new every day if they so please. They may grow. Explore. Learn. Teach. All things that they may have done when they were living.
All newly deceased begin their journey in Limbo. It is here where most tend to make friends, meet long lost relatives, and where they decide what they are going to do with the rest of their afterlives.
