I Found Hatchetfields Real Life Location!

I found Hatchetfield’s real life location!

I remember someone telling me that Nick Lang said in an interview that he imagined Hatchetfield as being an island in one of the Great Lakes, which would make sense, since Team StarKid started at the university of Michigan. I was looking at Google Maps today to see if I could figure out which lake it was. I saw that Lake Huron had several islands, including one with a yacht club, but nothing significant. Then, I decided to try and find Clivesdale, which I picture as being on a peninsula. It turns out that there is a peninsula which matches my mental image, and on this peninsula is a tiny town called Bad Axe.

Bad Axe was founded in the mid 1800s by George Willis Pack who, presumably like the Men with Hatchets, worked in the logging industry. He found the area while exploring Huron county wilderness, and named the town after a damaged hatchet he found there. And Bad Axe high school’s mascot is “The Hatchets”!

Bad Axe has a few other similarities to Hatchetfield, including an auto repair shop, a place called Pete’s Bar which could be the inspiration for Pizza Pete’s, and, most notably, a coffee shop called Emma’s Coffee House! this can’t be a coincidence.

image

Several notable people have lived in Bad Axe, including film editor Bob Murawski, who worked on “The Gift”, a horror movie about a woman with psychic powers, similar to how The Gift works in Hatchetfield; and William Potts, the inventor who first created traffic lights with yellow lights, the first of which was placed in Detroit, at the intersection of Michigan Avenue and Woodward avenue, which must have been the inspiration for Bill and Alice’s last name!

Clearly, Hatchetfield has more basis in reality than we initially thought. And whatever Nick lang is planning, it’s very complex, but this could be the key to solving more of Hatchetfield’s mysteries!

GET TO KNOW ME MEME: [4/5] Musicals -> Spies Are Forever

A new world awaits us, Curt. A world without agencies, a world without spies, a world without secrets. Some secrets aren’t yours to share. What about our secret? The time we shared. The feelings we had… for each other. Are you ready to share that with the world? That secret died the night you left me for dead.

[image description: digital drawing in the style of a poster, for Starkid’s ‘Black Friday’. In the centre is the doll of Wiggly, a green being with a fluffy tummy, intense stare and tentacles forming the mouth. Around it are six bloodied hands, three from each side, grabbing and pulling the doll. Above Wiggly’s head is the text “you would have to kill to have one” in red, and “made in America!!” in black, and below Wiggly is “only on Black Friday”, the last two words written in all-caps, in a font that looks like dripping liquid.

we have GOT to talk about welcome to toyzone because it’s a fantastic villain song that I feel like gets overlooked but—it’s SUCH a powerful and good-sounding song that sets up frank/capitalism as a really chillingly awful fellow antagonist with wiggly

AND Corey fucking killed the vocals, the RANGE on that man, you can HEAR the shit-eating grin on his face with the ‘we capitalists - we are honest :}’ line and i LOVE it

[image description: a sad looking Blinky, from Starkid’s Nightmare Time Series. Blinky is purple and furry, and his sole facial feature is one large eye, yellow with a purple iris. He sits with the soles of his feet together, holding a big bowl of soup with one hand, a spoon in the other. He looks at the soul sadly, a question mark by his head. End ID]
