A network of geometric shapes, no two the same, cast its light across the melange that was both living room and bedroom in the Mausberg house. The rainbow of refracting midday light was illumination enough for Emmett as he fought through the fugue state of daydream and back into reality. One moment, he was half […]

The raccoon in enclosure eight would take some time to heal, Emmett knew, but more so, knowing this one would get well was fortune enough. Enclosure eight had become synonymous for the caretaker with worsening symptoms. It hadn’t started that way. Initially, it was just one of the last cages in the row for small […]

9:31 pm The camera clips on but before anything can be established about where the recorder is or what is happening, the image spirals down. For a moment, it is unclear what is happening despite the various candles lighting the attic almost perfectly. There is a mass that is not distinct or easily describable as […]

9:20pm The last room is what appears to be the master bedroom. It is the least ruined of all the spaces in the house and could almost pass as having been abandoned within the past year. Everything from the dresser to the bed, the nightstand, and the closet full of clothes looks in order and […]

9:18pm The stairs are so worn down and decayed that the cameraman almost falls through. His good leg punches a whole in on step, but he keeps on until he is upstairs.

9:06pm Someone else was in the house, but they had been upstairs from the recorder, who instantly threw himself into a side room on hearing the booming of steps down to the ground floor. The camera shakes and jilts about in the dark. The only impact of it felt as the slit of light under […]

9:01pm After making a crawl through what had been a sitting room, they find themselves in the kitchen. A candle sits on the counter in a free space made by another entity. The place is in worse repair than the shed, with rotting food clinging to every surface. The refrigerator had clearly gone out long […]

8:50pm “Something was moving in there. If someone is in there, they’ve been watching me the whole time. So it might just be some runaway or a homeless person, but they might not be content with just watching if I come inside. But I’ve come this far, and I’ve got to know if this is […]

8:31pm “Oh god, that smell. It’s like rotting fish or a deer that got split open on the highway in the middle of July,” the cameraman mumbles in disgust after heaving a watery deluge of acid on the soil. What was found inside the two small shacks was nothing but clutter, a few dead animals, […]
