Suburb Number: 39 |
Spracklingbank is a suburb of Malton, located in the east of the city. Before the outbreak the local economy thrived on automobile trade; 9 parking lots once used to display everything from third-hand Volkswagens to gleaming Rolls Royces are now lined with row after row of smashed, burnt-out wrecks. Lately survivors have attempted to salvage the occasional vehicle, using one of the four local bodyshops to perform rudimentary repairs and modifications -- but these makeshift motors rarely get further than the suburb boundary before running down in a cloud of smoke, handily advertising the presence of a tin of harmarn braahnz to the local zombies.
Before the evacuation, Spracklingbank also attracted large groups of fans of the cult TV show, The A-Team, who flocked to the the Pepperd Museum to pay homage. Now the museum rarely has visitors as they are all out 'living the adventure' themselves.

Interesting Facts
- Spracklingbank is named after Dr. Mickelson Sprackling, one of the founding fathers of Malton.
- The Chippet Grove Police Station is a common starting point for new characters (cops)
- Tambling Library was infamous amongst academic circles within Malton for its extensive collection of entomology texts, many of which predate the industrial revolution (and thus, are frequently misleading oddities). Tambling's collection is often mistaken for the one in Hecks Library, which boasts a respectable collection of books on the topic of etymology. Hundreds of students and academics alike have found themselves fruitlessly searching the wrong library for its associated texts.
- Salvage Cinema, abandoned in the 1950's, was renamed after it was discovered by its new owners in the 1970's, becoming one of Spracklingbank's premiere pornographic cinemas. Government crackdowns and the advent of VHS lead to the decline and eventual closure of the cinema in the early 1990's. The cinema was again reopened in 1999 for the premiere of the A-Team Movie and became one of Maltons leading entertainment hubs, but was closed down a few years later due to the areas zombie infestation and lack of cinema-goers.
