Creepier content given a twist where victims are gathered? (9,6)

I believe the answer is:

reception centre

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'victims are gathered?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'creepier content given a twist' is the wordplay.
'given' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a twist' is an anagram indicator (a twisted or distorted version of the letters).
'creepier' after 'content' is 'contentcreepier'.
'contentcreepier' is an anagram of 'RECEPTION CENTRE'.

'where' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for reception centre that I've seen is " temporary shelter".)
