Legendary Truth: The Collective is the leading organization studying the evil that takes place at Halloween Horror Nights. Established by Boris Shuster sometime in the 1960s. The Collective has a long history with the event, including their investigations of Bloody Mary in 2008, their work with studying the Lantern (and the accidental release of Fear himself) in 2010 and their study of the Roaming Legions' 2012 unearthing in 2013. The organization vanished for a short period of time since the "lantern incident", but made a resurfacing in 2013, claiming it was to investigate it's own leading members.
It seems that there has been corruption in the organization, particularly among the senior staff's inner circle. One of the senior staff's members, Richard Steerington been regarded as missing, presumed dead since 2010, having vanished during a fishing trip in Amity Island, New England. According to his daughter, Paige, a member of the Legendary Truth staff named Ignatia Himmel was responsible for his disappearance. It is speculated that she was trying to take his place in the senior staff's inner circle. In the 2015 Legendary Truth investigation (which was held during the event's last three nights), it was strongly implied that Bloody Mary played a major role in freeing the icons from Fear's lantern.
They own the Legendary Truth Mansion, which is allegedly located in the Sourland Mountains, New Jersey.

Rhyme[]
Since time began the world had been divided between light and dark
Between the obvious and the unexplained
In the light, there is clarity
Reason and order
But in the dark
There is mystery, horror and fear
Legendary Truth seeks to shed light out the darkness
Explain the inexplicable
And delve deep into the unknown
We do not undertake this quest alone
Welcome to the Collective
