From the Signal Desk: On this recording you will hear accounts of disappearances, amateur theatrics gone wrong, and violent incidents involving firearms and missing teeth. The material includes descriptions of blood, grift, and unexplained vanishings in remote cabins and lake inlets.
East Bellmont fog rolls thick again this week, same as it did when the lake reclaimed Captain Fink’s cabin back in 1913. Cracked fiddle still sits in the mud somewhere near the Narrows, birch-carved false teeth scattered like dice, and that crate of salted theater posters for “The Tragedie of Gut Hollow” peeled off the walls by wind and water.
One ledger page survived the storm: “Bet against the river. Lost the bet. Town paid double.” Pinned once to the Seth Thomas Boathouse, now just ink memory. Odd how the entries never mention the rehearsals at Banner House—fasting, fog-watching, teeth clenching—or the flyers promising beauty in death.
Mrs. Chase noted the guests left lighter. Spiritually, they claimed. Bodily too, in some cases. One girl spoke to the dining hall wall in Latin about her mother. The wall answered.
What ties the Brainardsville Bread Revolt to a man who staged plays with real stakes? And why do fish heads still spell names on porches when the solstice nears?
Tune the set low after dark. Let the static settle like snow on the line. Pour something strong. The kilns burn, the scripts rot, and somewhere an inlet owes a debt in whiskey and hearts.
