"A deep sound of thunder echoed above the forest. Arde and I had been following the hideous traces left by the creature for the better part of the afternoon and the dark was beginning to settle upon the dense, damp foliage. The sudden flash, shortly followed by the rumbling sound, brought us back, if momentarily, from that cursed and almost unconscious compulsion to hunt the mysterious being. I, being prudent, or , you might say, something of a coward, stopped and suggested it was time to go back to the camp, to which Arde promptly disagreed. The thing, whatever it was, had been roaming around our fields for some weeks. It seemed to take care not to be seen from less than a couple miles away, so that its already dark shape became almost indiscernible at such a distance. It was about the size of a brown bear, but it looked different from anything I or Arde had ever seen. This sinister presence had been accompanied by the repeated disappearance, at somewhat regular intervals of around three or four days, of some of our chickens, rabbits and smaller cattle. The first day of the fourth week Arde, certain of the creature's guilt, convinced me to follow it and bring with us knives, should the thing behave dangerously.

We kept walking through the forest, still tracing its fading steps, until we came to a dead end and completely lost track of its trail. Had it not been for Arde's sharp sight, we'd have turned back right then. But my friend noticed a subtle rustling in the bushes underneath a huge, age-bent oak and with an agile leap brought himself close enough to pull the bushes apart and peer. A chilling scream tore at my ears and scared the birds up, away from the trees. I immediately went after Arde, whom I found lying face down on the ground, collapsed directly in front of the bushes I was about to inspect. As I squinted across the deepening darkness, I noticed the shrubbery hid a sort of hole. An abhorrent, sickening smell like that of death reeked from it. As I was about to lower myself into the grim cave, the knife held tight in my hand, a bolt of lightning struck a tree very close to the entrance. What I have seen in the light of that damn flash I still shiver to think of, let alone describe. I am haunted by that terrifying vision. My first impression was that of a deformed, evil body like that of a hairless, mostruous ape, covered in a dark cloth and with an eyeless face so profoundly decayed and mangled that it held only a vague resemblance to the human profile. But even in those few, endless instants I could tell, before the light went out, that the face was not creature's own. It was worn, as a mask is."


Have fun anon

I remember reading about an actual event that was similar to this scene that took place during the plague. I believe the idea was that some had witnessed a few with plague jutting back and forth, their limbs kicking and flailing, and then had noticed that these people seemed to be cured. As the plague took over the town, people became convinced this was the cure, so one after another they began to dance, enticing passerby to join them. It was a week long rave I believe.

a man in a small town sees a large radio tower has been built seemingly overnight

almost immediately after he begins having strange dreams and thoughts he believes are not his own, and increasingly they become full of product placement and disrupt his daily life

this leads him to believe the tower might be broadcasting thoughts into his mind in an attempt to control him, and when he begins asking around town other people start treating him very negatively, including close friends and even his wife

as he asks them more, he discovers they seem to all be thinking literally the same thing, confirming his darkest suspicions
