Sudden Turn Leo Driver Twisting and turning—God, how did I get here? Oh, I remember. I was walking home like always. It was dark—it was always dark.

Dancing Shadows Dear Paranormal Parasocials INC: I am writing to you because of one thing: There’s someone here with me. Who?

Unwanted Guest Leo Driver There was no invitation for me, but I arrived anyway. It wasn’t much a party, yet these people treated it that way. There wasn’t even any cake! Whose birthday was it? Hm?

Unwanted Guest I have seen things for as long as I can remember. Things others would say didn’t exist—spirits. Most of the time they just pass through. I answer a few questions and they go on their way without disruption or extended interaction. But, Benny, Benny is different. HE WON’T LEAVE! I’ve tried everything, andContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 4”
