The Night the Phone Rang at the Weyburn Switchyard

The Night the Drive-In Kept Playing at the Starlite Twin

It was the summer of 2005, and Luna's cousin worked the projector booth at the Starlite Twin Drive-In outside Bell Falls, Iowa. One night in late August, after the last movie ended, the screen went to static—but the audio kept broadcasting. Not the movie audio. Something else. Something that seemed to be waiting for a response. Luna's cousin called her that night, his voice thin and hollow, saying he needed her to come see something. By the time she arrived, the lot was empty except for his truck and a single speaker pole that was still crackling with a voice that sounded like his father, who had died three years before. What she heard through that speaker has never left her. It wasn't a recording. It was listening. #StarliteTwinDriveIn #BellFallsIowa #driveinhorror #projectorbooth #static #voicefromthedead #LunasCousin #August2005 #emptyparkinglot #speakerpole #gravelcrunch #flickeringlight #cigarettesmoke #44magnum #wiretap #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #TheWitnessHour Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo [https://buymeacoffee.com/fexingo]

The Night the ATM Spoke at the First Mercantile Bank

October 1997, three weeks before Halloween, in the town of Whittington, Ohio. I was driving back from a friend's place when I stopped at the First Mercantile Bank drive-through ATM. The machine worked fine, but the voice coming through the speaker was not the bank's recorded message. It was a woman's voice, thin and distant, and she asked me a question I couldn't answer. Then she asked again. I drove away, but the next night I went back. And the next. And every night for two weeks, the voice was there, waiting, growing more desperate. This is the story of that machine, and what happens when a bank of circuits becomes a confessional you can't hang up on. #TheWitnessHour #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #ATMHorror #WhittingtonOhio #October1997 #DriveThrough #FirstMercantileBank #WomansVoice #Confessional #Obsession #NightDrive #SmallTown #UnansweredQuestion #HollowEcho #Circuitry #AutumnHorror #SoloNarration Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo [https://buymeacoffee.com/fexingo]

The Night the Bridge Ended Before the River at Katy Hollow

In October of 1997, I got a call from a man named Royce who lived on the far side of Katy Hollow. He said the bridge on Old Mill Road had been acting strange for three weeks — not the structure itself, but the moment you reached the middle. Every night around 2:47 AM, if you drove across heading east, the headlights would show the road continuing past the river, the guardrail curving away into a stand of sycamores that shouldn't be there. Royce had measured it: the bridge was exactly one hundred and twelve feet long, but after the third week his odometer said he'd traveled almost a quarter mile before he came out the other side. He wanted me to ride with him one night and see it myself. I said yes because I thought he was lonely and making things up. I was wrong about the loneliness. This is a story about a road that decided to keep going, and the man who followed it farther than he should have. It's also about what came back across the bridge when he didn't. #KatyHollow #OldMillRoad #TheBridge #MissingMile #RoyceHarlow #October1997 #ChevySilverado #SycamoreTrees #SplinteredWood #DeepPineScrub #HorrorPodcast #FexingoHorror #TheWitnessHour #LunaStorytelling #AnthologyHorror #SolitaryNarration #AtmosphericHorror #UnresolvedEnding Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo [https://buymeacoffee.com/fexingo]

The Night the Traffic Light Stayed Red at Twelve Mile Creek

September 1988. A dead-end highway job. A traffic light at a bridge that hasn't been there in forty years. Luna's cousin took the night shift at the construction site on Twelve Mile Creek, just outside of Havenwood. The light was supposed to be temporary. But every night it turned red at the same moment—right before the headlights appeared out of the fog. Not cars. Something else. Something that couldn't leave the bridge. This is what he told her the morning he quit. #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #Havenwood #TwelveMileCreek #TrafficLight #NightShift #ConstructionSite #Fog #Bridge #Headlights #1988 #Route9 #Cousin #Quit #RedLight #SomethingInTheFog #Luna #WitnessHour Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo [https://buymeacoffee.com/fexingo]

The Night the Payphone Rang at the Weyburn Switchyard

It's October 1997, just past midnight, and the payphone at the Weyburn switchyard has been ringing for two hours straight. No one's supposed to be there—the yard was decommissioned in '89, the tracks pulled up, the booth left standing like a monument. Luna's uncle was the night watchman, and he told her what he found when he finally answered it. A voice he recognized. A call that had been placed from inside the locked stationhouse. A call that connected him to a conversation he'd had twenty years earlier, the night the last freight derailed. This is the story of what came through the line when no line should have existed. #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #TheWitnessHour #WeyburnSwitchyard #Payphone #1997 #October #Uncle #NightWatchman #DisembodiedVoice #ColdCase #Railroad #Derailment #TimeLoop #PhoneCall #Luna #SoloNarration #AtmosphericHorror Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo [https://buymeacoffee.com/fexingo]
