Sweet Dreams / Sogni D'Oro for #spookysaturday episode 5

"Oneiric Hypnotherapy: Trouble sleeping? Resolved in just one session or your money back!".
The advert seemed a little too good to be true, but you were desperate.
The office is nice and welcoming, and the therapist seems professional. He's explained that he's been doing this for over 20 years and has helped numerous clients.
"So you can fix me in one session?"
"Yes. I have a perfect record. Nobody’s ever come back for a refund."
You settle down and begin the session. He tells you to imagine a comforting place for you – a beach, a pasture, your childhood home.
You find yourself in a moonlit field. An ominous hooded figure stands near a barren tree. "When the sun goes down..." it hisses at you.
You don't remember anything else, nor the hypnotherapist bringing you out of the trance.
"Alright, that's it, then. You're cured!"
"Really? That's it?"
"Oh, I've seen this many times before. The tree, the cloaked figure. All quite normal hallucinations."
"Wait, so others have seen this too?"
"Oh yes, but don't worry. Nobody has ever come back!"
"Have you seen them afterwards? Your clients?"
"Huh, now that you mention it, I don't think I have".

(The real horror story here was trying to put this photo together. 😂 This is the most effort you're ever getting out of me. 😂)

Don't Look Now / Non Guardare Ora for #spookysaturday episode 4

It is completely normal. It happens to everyone, all over the world. It's a well documented phenomenon. You know this, but it's happening more often now and it's getting a lot closer. The shadows out of the corner of your eye. They're usually just a haze, maybe a rough outline but they've become more defined, more obvious. They have, well it has, become more real. You've tried using mirrors, keeping the lights on, turning your head quickly - nothing has worked. You can't prove it. Friends and family tell you it's normal, because it is, 99.9% of the time.
This, this is different though. You even feel it now, don't you? You know it's there. It's always there. It's right behind you, just off to the side. The hairs on the back of your neck are standing up because it's watching you. No, it's staring at you. The monster, this shadow from the corner of your eye. Don't turn around. You're safe if you don't show it you know it's there. At least safe for now...

(This is just a story and seeing shadows is pretty normal but if you do think that you are seeing them quite frequently or it is beginning to bother you, please see a doctor/medical professional! ♥️)
This is also not a generated picture! It's my left eye! I just went heavy with the editing! 😂

The Long Weekend / Il Fine Settimana Lungo #spookysaturday episode 3

You don't remember entering the raffle but the kind old woman, Gwendolyn, on the phone assured you you had. How else would she have your details? You had been hesitant at first but she explained everything to you - the history of the island and its castle - all off-grid except for one ancient landline in the kitchen. How it was used by her family as private hunting grounds, the transportation there by ferry and bringing supplies for the weekend, - by the end it was like talking to an old friend and you just couldn't say no.
The crossing there was interesting. Was it seasickness or was the uneasy feeling coming from the ferryman? He wouldn't look you in the eye and spent all his time muttering under his breath, ignoring you. Was he praying? "Bring another one"? Huh?
At least the castle was comfortable. Exploring the island, finally having some peace and quiet after all these hard months was much needed.
Sunday evening, the landline rings.
"I'm sorry dear but the ferry isn't coming for a while"
You inquire if that means a few hours or tomorrow.
"... I'm sorry dear but the ferry isn't coming."
You are confused.
"We still use it as hunting grounds, you know."
The line goes dead.

“We should not have to prove our citizenship, […] We are the original people in this country, but we’re in a #scary time right now, and I don’t want any #American #Indian to get lost in the #system. [ICE] ‘lost’ children the last time they did this. They lost little brown children that will never be reunited with their parents. And that is horrible. […]”

So we've all heard about the Calexit movement...they're collecting signatures to authorize a ballot initiative for California to secede from the US.

I've since learned that other secession movements are gathering steam. The Cascadia movement wants Washington and Oregon to join with CA and form a new nation. A New York/New Jersey movement is brewing, and there's a campaign for a Republic of New England, to incorporate MA, VT, NH, ME, CT, and RI.

Interestingly, the Texas secessionists, who raise their heads every so often, seem to be quiet. And there's likely others that I am unaware of.

A Balkanization of the US is scary, to be sure, but at the same time, many have predicted it for a while. A common thread is taxation...not that taxes are too high, but that these states, which are among those that pay the highest in taxes, get little in return, and some are angry over what they feel is subsidizing the rest of the country.

Is it coming? I'm not sure, but if the country continues to destabilize, it may be inevitable.

Cheery thoughts for a Tuesday morning...

An #abandoned #house near our school playground. #SilentSunday
I've been studying in this school for 11 years and this house was still in that place, not demolished yet. We don't know what happened to it, but a classmate told me that it was meant to be a clinic before. I remember a long time ago, my old classmates played some ghostly pranks on the porch of that house which I didn't participate in, thinking it's #haunted.

From your window you see the street lamp across the road is flickering. Bit weird. You've never seen it do that before. Wait... You see a figure. Is that a person? No. It's just the flickering. No, hold on, it is a person. They'll catch their death out there! It's so cold. Wait, those "Missing" posters around the neighbourhood for that kid - What if it's him? You have to go out and check. God, it's been days, he might be hurt! You walk briskly towards the street lamp. The air is freezing. You get closer "Hey! Are you okay?" "Hello! Do you need any help?". The figure turns towards you. Your blood runs colder than the air around you. It stares. It's not the missing kid. It's the reason he is missing. Oh God. How fast can you run? How fast can it run?
