Author: Original unknown, reposted by Our Hero

Location: Florida Panhandle

Background: The story that began our exploration of a series of events and connections, the origins of this tale are murky at best. It is a transcription of a journal entry posted on an old, defunct message board called CreepyToys. The original author remains unknown, as is how the original transcriber happened upon his journal. The post was recovered from a database backup years after the forum went offline.

Summary: He isn’t the only person to have recollections of an enigmatic small amusement park on the side of a Florida highway. I did too! This story introduces our pals “Kate” and “Jack”. It also introduces the idea of not being able to trust our memories.

Author: Mother in 1988, transcribed by her daughter in 2014, reposted later that year

4: The Electric Rabbit

Background: After I hear about and then experience an odd video game on a prototype, unheard of system, I tell Our Hero that he needs to see it for himself. This is his journal of what happened.

Summary: Imagine that you’re watching TV, and Dora the Explorer suddenly really does need your help, and will die all sorts of horrible deaths if you mess up. And then it gets worse.

6: The Liminal Warehouse

8: Nowhere Train

Dates: You’ll see!

Author: Not saying

Location: It would ruin the suspense

Background: A mysterious narrator wakes up on a windowless, moving train. He has memory problems, but knows one thing: He doesn’t belong there.

Summary: This one starts slow with a sense of loneliness, but progresses with the discovery of other passengers, revelations, and some suspenseful action. If this story is true, it would be central to the entire series. Make up your own mind – but try to keep it open.
