The Great Lakes Called; They Want Their Ghosts Back- and the Water Never "Forgets"

What if water keeps a ledger of everything we’ve done to it—and to each other? We follow that question across Michigan’s strangest fault lines: drowned towns under glassy lakes, storm drains rumored to sing, a highway where compasses spin, and a stretch of shoreline that locals call the state’s Bermuda Triangle. Along the way, we pair chilling folklore with uncomfortable facts, from Cold War experiments and cult rituals to the sobering count of long-term missing people who never made it home.

We start with the uncanny: “suicide ponds” that call the lonely, the drowned bride motif echoing across cultures, and mirrors left at graves that fog with breaths that don’t match the living. My own drowning trauma threads through these stories, shaping how I read legends about memory-heavy water and places that never stopped listening. Then we head underwater—Rawsonville beneath Belleville Lake, Singapore swallowed by dunes, Hamlin’s foundations pinged by sonar—and ask whether the past resurfaces because the lakes are haunted or because we are.

From there the map widens. Allegan’s UFO wave flickers out under a “brief investigation that never existed.” Bunkers beneath Coldwater allegedly store something pulled from Lake Michigan. Project Starseed subjects report identical blue-water dreams. Owasso’s vanished lodge glows in fog, while M33 earns the name Michigan’s Mirror Lane. We unpack active groups—from Twelve Tribes communes to hybrid UFO-reincarnation circles—and consider how belief shapes behavior, risk, and what communities choose to hide.

The numbers ground the dread. Thousands of active missing cases at any time. Hundreds unresolved beyond a year. Remains surfacing after storms near submerged towns and industrial dumps. These facts don’t need ghosts to scare us; they ask for attention and care. By the end, we test a provocative idea: maybe the “dark grid” is part folklore, part infrastructure, part trauma—and entirely human. Press play to explore the line between memory, myth, and the places that won’t let us forget. If this resonated, subscribe, share with a friend who loves strange maps, and leave a review with your theory of what ties these stories together.

Water. It's the element that we trust the most. We drink it, we bathe in it, we're born from it. But what if I told you that every drop around us remembers that water isn't just alive, it's listening. Scientists and spiritualists alike believe that water holds memory, that emotions, trauma, and even death can be imprinted in its molecules. So if that's true, what kind of memories are flowing through your veins right now? Hey everyone, welcome back. It's your host, Melissa, it's strange strange to be out insane. So let's just start this party off with some really juicy topics. It is said that in Japan there is such a thing called suicide ponds. And this is believed to basically call the lonely, like whispering their names until they walk in to the ponds and I guess allegedly die. Now there's a lot of stories out there floating around with baptisms that go wrong. Um, there are some really dark stories where religious ceremonies turn fatal and the water is said to boil afterward, which is insane. Alright, so the drowned bride phenomenon. Repeated tales across countries where newlywed women die in water, lakes, bathtubs, and oceans as if claimed by something jealous. Hmm, sounds kind of like a siren to me. Alright, so you know I'm a science nerd, so I had to kind of go with these topics. So the Mazuri Emoto's water experiments is proof that water changes its molecular structure when exposed to human emotion. What happens when it absorbs rage or grief? Hmm, good question. So the amunotic ocean theory is where the water that we grow in connects us to all drowned souls before us. The same memory reborn again and again. Um I don't know. I don't know if I like that one. That one creeps creeps me out. Um I have this, you know, this really I guess PDSD like trauma from drowning. Uh, you know, like I did talk on here last year about a friend, an old friend that I watched pretty much drown for 35 minutes until we got, you know, we got the help that we needed, but it was extremely scary. So I don't like that. I don't like that at all. And knowing that I just had a child, yeah, I don't like that. Alright, so let's talk about some towns that are buried beneath water in Michigan. And they say that water holds memory, so I'm sure these places are haunted. So the town beneath Lake Fenton, and this is Genesee County, once known as Long Lake Village, this small 19th-century settlement was flooded, and it was part of efforts to reshape the region's waterways for mills and ice harvesting. Local drivers have claimed to see building foundations, wagon wheels, and even gravestones at the bottom. Some say lights can be seen flickering under the water on foggy nights. Okay, so Fenton is not far from us, and I did not know that, but we do go to a cemetery out there that's actually very beautiful, and that is um the sunken garden, I think, cemetery. Where it's got like the Lambert, and the on the whole other side, you gotta like walk over a bridge to see it. Okay, so Singapore, Michigan's lost Atlantis, and this is near Shuggatok. Suggatauck, I'm sorry, Suggatauck. Perhaps the most famous, the ghost town of Singapore. In the 1800s, it was a booming lumber port, but deforestation led to massive sand erosion. By the 1870s, the whole entire town was swallowed by Lake Michigan's shifting dunes. Locals still say you can hear church bells ringing beneath the sand during storms. Even some even claim that the outline of the buildings reappear briefly before vanishing again. That's freaky. So on a way, that's Fletcher Floodwaters, and this is in Sheboygan County. The creation of the Fletcher Floodwaters Reservoir submerged farmland, homesteads, and logging camps. Remnants of barns and fences still sit eerily preserved underwater. Fishermen have reported snagging lines on chimney stones and window frames, and seeing ghostly lantern lights drifting just beneath the surface. Hamlin Village, buried beneath Hamlin Lake in Ludington, Michigan. In the late 1800s, a sawmill dam collapsed and it destroyed much of the original village. When the dam was rebuilt, the area was flooded again, and this time burying homes, shops, and a schoolhouse forever under Hamlin Lake. Kayakers say that they feel a strange quote-unquote pull near the old town site, and sonar scans show rectangular foundations still standing. I would love to see these. So the drowned town of Edenville, which is in Midland County. Before the dam collapse in 2020, the area of Edenville already had an airy history. Stories of the original village beneath Wixam Lake. Locals say that when the water levels dropped, old gravestones and house foundations became visible, drawing curious visitors who swore the air grew heavier, colder, and filled with whispers. Hmm. Very interesting. Um again, I do I am a true believer that water does hold memory, and it is scientifically proven. So I know there's another one too that we went to. Um where that there's a town. I think it's I think it's part of um yeah, we were just over there by uh what is that called? We're over by Soup Cemetery. And I think that lake or a lake near there has a town that's buried under the water too. But we're gonna take a quick break and we come back, we're gonna do part two. Okay, so I hate when I can't remember something, and I was right, it is by soup, but it's um I think it's in Belleville, right? But or I'm sorry, this was part of Bell Belleville at one time. So I was thinking of Rossinville, Michigan. And this is the submerged town of Rossonville, Michigan, is a hidden gem of the state's underwater ghost towns. Once a thriving village, it was completely submerged by the French landing hydraulic, I'm sorry, hydroelectric dam in 1925. Okay, so today there's only one little historical marker that remains to basically show this once thriving city. The town's history is a testament to Michigan's industrial past and the impact of natural disasters on its development. Visitors can explore the airy underwater legacy of Rawsonville, a slice of Michigan's unique history that lies beneath Belleville Lake. So it's actually, yeah, Belleville Lake is that. That was the town then. Um, we did go to a cemetery over there too, and it was really, really airy. I remember now. I think this is like just over a year ago, and we went on Friday the 13th. Okay, so here in Michigan, we've all heard of the Northville State Hospital. I never got the pleasure to go drifting around there. Um, by the time that I found out about it, it was heavily secured, and now I think a lot of it's like demolished. Um, but I guess during the Cold War, a few psych patients were part of a secret MK Ultra style experiment, which included sleep deprivation, electro shock, and sensory isolation. Some former staff claim strange humming noises would still echo in the old tunnels, like the frequencies never stopped running. Okay, so this is very interesting. This is the reincarnation kids of Michigan. Several documented cases where children vividly describe past lives in Michigan towns that no longer exist. One child in Alpina reported reportedly drew maps of streets that were underwater before divers confirmed structures were even there, as if his memories came from a sunken past life. I mean, it's equally creepy as it is interesting. Um if it were my own kid, I would think that was like super neat and you know unique and interesting. Um, I'm sure my husband would be more freaked out than me, right? But I I think that's a really cool topic. Alright, so the Eloise Asylum Time Loop. Security guards at the abandoned Eloise complex have reported hearing the same scream at the exact time every single night. 3:17 a.m. No matter where they are on the grounds. Some psychics say that it's a time loop replaying one patient's final moments endlessly. Now, when I used to work and volunteer at Eloise, um, I don't remember that. There were a lot of repeated things that would happen, but one of the I would say like a repetitive, isolated incident for me that I remember is the growling. And I think that was like going up to the fourth floor is like when we would hear it in the stairwell, and you would hear it every time you were there, and it was always I want to say like 1-ish a.m. 12:31, like when we were shutting down and everybody was getting ready to go home. Um, very, very gnarly growl. I will never forget it. Alright, so I'm going to try this the next time I go out to soup. Soup Cemetery, you guys, is in Belleville. We were just talking about that. So people leave mirrors near graves hoping to see spirits, but several reports tell of faces appearing that aren't their reflections. Older versions of themselves or disfigured duplicates. When they look away and back again, the faces are gone, but the glass stays fogged from breathing. Wow. I'm gonna try it. I don't I don't know how everyone else is gonna feel about that, but the next time we go out to soup, we're definitely gonna try that. Alright, so this is the Forgotten Children of Hearsons Island, and actually, this was years ago. I took I took Carissa out to Hearsons Island because she had never been, and it was like late at night. We took the ferry, and I was telling her about this that I had run up on this like a long time ago, and I thought I don't know if it was a link to the Epstein case, but it was like something that somehow this got like intertwined with Epstein too, which is like super fucked up. I think they were Boy Scouts um or something, but anyways, so the Forgotten Children of Harson's Island, a series of unsolved 1960s disappearances of kids vacationing on the island. Some say that the marshes hide an underground military testing site. Others swear the kids were taken by light orbs seen above the bay that same exact summer. No trace was ever found, not even bones. Now, I know there might be a different incident, but it was Harson's Island too, and I thought it was with like the Boy Scouts. Um, but true story. One year, so a lady I was assisting for, and you gotta remember this is back when I was like fucking 18. So this is like oh my god, 20 years ago or something. I shouldn't age myself like that on here, but anyways, um I was a hairstylist assisting at the salon, and her husband at the time, which is now deceased, um, Carol's husband did like he was a handyman, jack of all trades, and he was gonna be working on the island with his crew. And Carol was like, hey, they're a bunch of young guys that work for my husband. You love being outside and doing outdoor things. Like, why don't you go work with them? And I'm like, Okay, uh, what are we gonna be doing? And she's like, I don't know, odds and ends. So, anyways, I drive to this island. Um, even though living here in Michigan, I never ever had gone to her since I didn't even know like how to get onto the fucking ferry. Like they were yelling at me in my, you know, my old Jeep. Um, it was so strange, right? The first time you go on a ferry. So get on there, go across during the day, it's fun. You know, I'm drinking with all the young guys, and uh, of course, you know, I had I I I either had a DD, I don't know if someone had to come get me that night, or if I ended up sleeping in my Jeep, but I know by the time night rolled around, so I was helping them finish um like a complete tear-off and like redo of a tennis court. And it as soon as it got dark on that island, it was so fucking airy. Like it's literally like the movie Um Silent Hill, like it's extremely quiet, the bugs are huge, and it is like hauntingly, hauntingly quiet. Like, there's nobody talks, you don't hear anything. Um, the first thing I thought of staying on that island was that it was definitely haunted. So, and that like I said, it was like 20 years ago, and then as I got, you know, maybe like a couple years later, um, excuse me, we started to go onto the island a lot with like a group of friends and go fishing, but everyone always says the same thing at nighttime. That place is so fucking airy, like you can just feel the energy, and everybody is in their cabins and their houses, nobody's outside at night. It's very, very strange. But, anyways, um, again, I want to apologize. I'm just getting over a cold, you know. I'm sure you guys know by now, I live in Michigan, and it is uh November 11th. Well, it was now it is, but it was November 10th, and it was like 30 degrees today. I mean, it felt like a very cold January day, so we are all in Michigan suffering and sniffling and coughing. So I apologize. Alright, so the siren tunnels of Detroit. Old storm drains rumored to be used for smuggling during prohibition. People exploring them hear female voices singing lullabies in the dark. When the city tried to seal one entrance in the 90s, the workers reported hearing a scream from below and refused to go back. Alright, this one's very interesting. The man who couldn't die, and this is a Frankenmouth immortal. That's weird. We were just talking about Frankenmouth today. Um, okay, so local legend says a farmer struck by lightning seven times survived each one. His family buried him in a lead-lined coffin to keep the energy contained. Years later, lightning struck his grave during a storm, setting nearby trees ablaze. Wow, that's I just find that story so, so interesting. Alright, so this is the burned-out church that rings itself. Near Gaylord stands a ruined church said to chime on its own every year on the date it burned. Firefighters swear they hear bells through their radios, even though the church's bell was melted to slag decades ago. This one, so Tom and I were just texting each other. I'm gonna t I'm gonna send this to him. So this is the psychic highway of M33. This remote stretch has been tied to multiple clairvoyant events and UFO sightings. Radios cut out, compasses spin, and people claim to see versions of themselves walking beside the road. Locals call it Michigan's Mirror Lane. Now that's fucking freaky. So I definitely when I get done um recording, I have to send that to Tom. Alright, so here are some more interesting, strange, strange topics of Michigan. So the vanishing fishermen of Holton Lake. So the boats um are found adrift, gear intact, radios crackling with whispers when touched. And um, I did do a story, I think just a year ago, maybe a year and a half ago, about this. Um, Holton Lake, about the man that survived like this ocean-like storm. Alright, so the bleeding cross of Alpina, a roadside memorial that weeps red fluid only on the anniversaries of local drownings. Dream experiments of Kalamazoo College in the 1970s. Several never returned to class, claiming they could not wake up. So, yeah, I don't um no, thank you. I don't want to share anyone else's dream. I dream enough. Alright, you guys, hold tight. We're gonna take a quick break and we'll be right back with part three. Okay, welcome back. So this is Cursed, Possessed, and Beyond Insane. The Hex of Hell's Bridge. So this is in Algoma Township. Old legend says a preacher named Elias Frisk murdered children and threw them into the creek. The bridge named after him now makes people hear childlike screams and the sound of chains dragging across wood. The Time Loop Cabin of Baldwin, a hunting cabin where clocks stop, phones die, and people lose track of hours. Visitors claim they've left before sunset, only to find it's morning and their gas tanks are mysteriously full again. The Witch's Dell of Potoski, Michigan, found in the woods, wrapped in deer hide, its mouth stitched shut with human hair, every owner who's taken it home has reported hearing footsteps pacing again and again around their bed at night. The Scrying Mirror of Manisty. A rumored relic made from Lake Glass, said to show not your reflection but your death. Locals claim a fisherman used it before drowning in the same spot it was found. Okay, so the black moon cult of Ascoda, a 1970s commune that vanished overnight. When police arrived, only black candles and a burned circle remain. Locals still find animal bones arranged in patterns along the riverbank every new moon. Okay, this is weird because Teresa and I were just talking about Pawpaw, Michigan, because we had a couple um, I guess you can say, experiences there driving home from Chicago. Okay, so this is the Serpent Road Rituals near Pawpaw, Michigan. Teens once played snake summoning games here, but one 1989 ritual ended with a participant found miles away, babbling in another language, and a body covered in scales like burns. Alright, so the Candle House Murders, and this is in Adrian, Michigan. A reclusive artist's home lined with thousands of lit candles. Investigators found melted wax with fingerprints inside. Some say the candles contain souls, and that they're trapped. Okay, this is the cursed mask of Monroe County. And you guys, Monroe County is like super haunted in Michigan. Anything you look up about Monroe, there's lots of stuff, lots of buildings, too, not just like cemeteries and roads. Okay, so this is found in a closed-down theater. This grotesque mask causes whoever wears it to black out and speak in voices from the audience, even when the room is empty. Creepy. That would make a really good movie. So the Firestarter of Flint is um about a teenage girl in the 1960s who allegedly set buildings ablaze just walking past them. After she was institutionalized, the fires stopped until the hospital burned down 20 years later on her birthday. Wow. And I think there is a movie like that. Original, let's see, with is it Drew? No, not Drew Berry. It's Carrie. Yeah, sounds like a Carrie thing. Okay, so the cemetery that moves, and this is in Holloway, Michigan. Graves shift location every few years. Locals say GPS pins and headstones move overnight. Like the dead are rearranging themselves to hide something. Maybe they just wanted a change, you know, like how you want to change up a room, maybe they just get bored. Alright, so this is a curse of the blue bottle trees, and this is in Yipsi. I'm sorry, Ypsilani. An old southern tradition meant to trap spirits, but locals say something broke loose in the 80s after a tree full of bottles shattered in a storm. Since then, the glowing blue orbs are seen floating near the Huron River. Alright, you guys, so that is that little segment. Again, we're gonna take another quick break. I'm gonna go check on the baby and we'll come back and we will start our little segment four. Alright, so we have um part four is Secret Societies, Alien Cults, and Government Cover-ups. Alright, and these are all in Michigan. So the Alleghen UFO wave, this was from 1966 to 1967. Dozens of rural sightings near Alleghen County led to a brief Air Force investigation that never existed, quote unquote, of course. Like, you know, uh minute black shit. Witnesses describe silver disc over cornfields and government vans visiting the next morning, which I 1,000% believe, because that is literally what fucking happens every time. So I'm surprised I didn't know about this one because I'm like, you know, of course, intrigued by Coldwater Michigan, because that's where the movie Jeepers Creepers is based from. So the Coldwater Bunker Network beneath the old cold cold water state home for the feeble-minded are miles of tunnels that connect to storage chambers. Rumors say one was used to house something recovered from a Lake Michigan crash site. Hmm. So Project Starseed. This is in Wexford County, Michigan. Allegedly 1980s, joint experiment between a defunct university lab and the military tried to induce psychic contact through deprivation tanks. Survivors later reported identical dreams of the Blue Water visitors. Hmm. Alright, so this is about the Freemason Lodge that vanished, and this is in Owasso, Michigan. Records show a 1911 Masonic Hall that burned down, but locals swear it still appears on foggy nights. Candles lit, organ music faintly playing from nowhere. That would freak me out because Freemason shit really freaks me out. So yeah, I would definitely run the other way. That would not be somewhere that I would like to drop everything to go investigate. I'll be honest, that would freak me out. Alright, so this is Roger City Sky Grid. Logos have mapped reoccurring UFO flight paths forming a perfect grid pattern above the quarry. Matching Cold War era radar collaboration lines. Coincidence, or is it still in use? Alright, so the red triangle cult, and this is in the UP, a group obsessed with triangular UFOs that appeared over the UP in the 1990s. Members carved the same symbol into their foreheads and disappeared into the woods. Only their empty tents were found, arranged in a triangle. Whoa. They uh must have taken the app the acid, huh? That or like I don't know, some kind of hallucinant. Alright, so this is a Huron Black Files. Declassified fragments hint at an experiment with magnetically sensitive human subjects. A local family near Pickening went missing the same week the files were sealed again. Alright, so this is about the sinkhole faculty and Gaylord. Geologists investigating a sudden sinkhole found evidence of reinforced walls deep underground, suggesting that an artificial structure did actually exist. The report was buried literally. Wow. So again, that's men and black shit. I'm telling you, it does, it's it definitely exists. Like that really does happen. So the Lake Michigan disappearances. Pilots and boaters vanish inside a region locals call the Michigan's Bermuda Triangle. Between Lenington and Benton Harbor and Manitowic. Radar blips vanish mid-flight, then reappear miles away. Alright, and this is the cult of the celestial dawn and arbor 1974. A splinter group from a local church that believed humans were harvested by beings of light. When police raided the property, they found lead-lined sleeping pods and not one single person. That's fucking insane. Alright, so we have done a couple episodes on this, but I want to revisit because there's always new stuff to talk about, and this is the most bizarre and is very important. Still active cults in Michigan. So the 12 tribes, and this again up north, Traverse City, and they're still on the move. So status active, secretive, and it's a communal group. What's strange is that members live together, work unpaid in cult-run cafes, and raise children under strict control. Known for recruiting at farmers' markets and music festivals across the Midwest. The creepy twist. They believe they must remain pure until the end of days. And that outsiders' souls were will perish in fire. Okay, so the this is the Raelians, Detroit, and Arbor. So status is very real. Um, internationally active UFO religion. And their belief is humanity was created by aliens called the Elohim Elohim through genetic engineering. Hmm. Okay, so active and bizarre colds that are still operating again, or rumored they, you know, allegedly. The House of Prayer, and this is in Highland Park, Detroit, a fringe religious sect that preaches divine punishment through suffering. Former members claim sleep deprivation rituals and forced fasting are still happening in hidden Detroit basements. Okay, so the 12 tribes. So this is a newer updated one of the one that we just talked about. Um, now they run restaurants and farms. Um they're friendly, but ex-members describe total control, corporal punishment, and being cut off from the outside world. Again, it's you know it's updated, but they're saying that they believe their community must stay pure for the coming of the apocalypse. So the church, universal, and triumphant Great Lakes division. Followers still meet quietly in northern Michigan, claiming to channel ascended masters. They stockpile supplies and believe Michigan will be a safe zone after nuclear cleansing. Holy shit. Alright, so the Fellowship of the Inner Light, Traverse City Region, a new age commune that's morphed into a hybrid UFO reincarnation section. Members meditate under the full moon to merge with their higher cosmic doubles. Locals report bonfires and chanting in the dunes. Yeah, if I heard that, if I was on vacation up there and I heard like fucking chanting, I'd be out. I'd get my car and leave. So the Aquarian Knowledge Temple, and this is in Ann Arbor, it operates online and through small in-person study pods. They blend astrology, AI, and alchemy. Believing that human consciousness will be uploaded to a digital afterlife once Lake Huron's magnetic field peaks. The Children of the Flame, upper lower peninsula, sorry. An off-grid doomsday group obsessed with purification by fire. Members tattoo a I'm sorry, a flame symbol and build fire towers in deep forest clearings. Hunters still stumber stumble on their burned altars. Hmm. The Order of the Blue Sun, Saginaw Bay City area, claims to be reviving ancient Great Lake sky sky gods. Weekly rituals involve mirror light communication with luminaires said to live beneath Lake Huron. Police once found hundreds of candles arranged in geometric grids near the shoreline. So the Sisters of the Spiral Path, this is in Kalamazoo, Pawpaw, Michigan area. So this is a neo-pagan woman's circle, and it allegedly turned malicious. People nearby report missing pets and strange howling during the rituals. Yeah, that I'd be pretty freaked out if I was out, you know, doing ghost, you know, haunted shit, and I heard women howling. I mean, it doesn't say that it's women, but I would think that that was them while they're doing like their little circle jerk ritual thing. Alright, so the serpent of the valley, Grand River Court Corridor. So this mixes Bible verses with snake handling and end-time prophecies. Members believe Michigan will split open like a serpent's mouth during judgment day, and it still holds Midnight River baptisms. Okay, and of course, to be even more deranged, I have to end this episode with you know missing people in Michigan. So according to the National Missing and Unidentified Person System and state law enforcement data, roughly 3,000 to 3,500 active missing person cases are recorded in Michigan at any given time. And this number fluctuates constantly. Some are solved, some are reclassified or added, but Michigan consistently ranks among the top 10 U.S. states for total missing people. Around 700 new disappearances are reported to Michigan State Police every year, but most are resolved within days. The haunting part is the long-term the long-term cases. So about 650 to 800 individuals have been missing for over one year. Around 250 to 300 sets of unidentified human remains have been discovered across the state. Many never matched to any missing persons. And so where they vanish the most is Detroit metro area, the highest concentration of missing adults and runaways. Northern Michigan and Upper Peninsula. So this is the highest rate of unsolved cases, especially in wooded and water-heavy areas. Houghton, Alpina, Marquette, and Ascoda. Lake Michigan shoreline. Multiple disappearances tied to boating, hiking, and unexplained, quote unquote unexplained vanishing events near Manasee, Muskegon, and Ludington. The zone is basically said to be the Michigan's Bermuda Triangle. So think of that. That is some of the highest, highest numbers where people go missing. So here's the creep factor about this. So about 40% of Michigan's long-term missing are women, mostly aged from 20 to 40 years of age. Over 100 children remain missing without resolution, some dating back to the 1950s. Unidentified remains often surface after floods or shoreline erosion. Bones appearing near old submerged towns or former industrial dumping zones. Michigan's mix of dense forests, abandoned buildings, and massive lakes creates one of the easiest states to disappear in. So they call Michigan the Great Lak State. But maybe those lakes aren't just water. Maybe they're mirrors, reflecting something buried deep beneath us. Towns have swallowed people whole. People disappearing without a trace, cults that speak to the sky, government files sealed tighter than coffins. So what if this is all connected? What if the missing aren't random but part of a pattern, a design carved into the state itself? Lines of energy, ancient burial grounds, old churches, asylums, and water reservoirs built exactly on top of them. A dark grid pulsing under Michigan, feeding on belief, fear, and memory. That is all for tonight. Thank you for listening. And again, please directly text me on the Buzz Sprout site. And my email is Ghost Sisters 2124 at Gmail.
