Sources at the Stantonville Historical Society confirm sightings of a Splitter. These Gone Wrongs appear as dark seams in the air. Avoid them at all costs—they’ll pull your body in opposite directions until you split. Turn away. Don’t breathe near it. Don’t even point.

The Porch Sitter waits on stoops, rocking in chairs that aren’t there. By sunrise, homes are emptied. The Douglass, Pierce & Baisley families vanished yesterday.

An older Black woman has been seen pushing a candy cart through Legacy Heights, offering sweets only to some. Emery McDonald refused—she smiled wide, all teeth. By nightfall, every tooth in his mouth ached. Officials claim they haven't seen her.

Elders warn against raking your leaves after sundown. Last week, one man did. He tripped into the large pile and was never seen again.
His dog hasn't left the pile's side like he's waiting.

Tonight: secret vinyl swap in Big East Vinyl’s basement.
Unlabeled records only. The last time we were there one played hymns backward, one played tomorrow’s weather.
Be mindful of where you drop the needle.
