This episode features a double feature with Ruth May's "The Fortune Teller" and Kevin Ground's "Halfway Down Throshmore Street."

Ruth May is a hobby writer and mysterious with her craft, weaving a tale of two soldiers returning from war with a dark secret. She dives into their struggles with mental health as they return home to meet an unfortunate demise.

Kevin Ground is a prolific writer especially in the horror genre. His tale follows a hag who seeks a deal with a devil. A trade for the innocence of youth in return for her own. However, her price is a steep one.
