Many people who hear things behind their walls suspect their house is haunted, but can’t prove it. Maybe they’re failing to ask one very simple question: How did those walls even come to be?

There’s always a small element of worry that comes when you leave a stranger to watch your property, children, or pets. Even if you’re fully trusting, here comes that gnawing sense that you yourself may have created a problem, because you didn’t quite bring yourself to tell the sitter... everything.

There's usually a moment as you drive alone late at night on a long, desolate country road when you succumb to a brief bleak thought of all that can happen to you out there.

This is a story for those who start feeling these things the very first second that road begins to curve out of sight.

Oh yes it is about time Soren! Thank you so much. Where else can i find your work that isn't a repeat of what's on here? Many thanks 🙏
I was fully on the same page as the screenwriter the moment I heard Thea. 😆 it brought back my PTSD and everything lol but regardless - I LOVE that I was wrong!! this vibe, the tension throughout, is exactly why I love this creator 🖤 We need less big boom boom moments and more of these inescapable atmospherics in our media
Wow! Fantastic story - kept me on edge until the end!
Another great episode. Thanks Soren!
