Tonight I read stories of first-hand sightings of bizarre creatures and events while driving. So many paranormal encounters take place on lonely roads–why is that? Does it have to do with the setting or the state of mind?

From the publisher's feed
I collect first-hand paranormal encounters that I find and present them with genuine interest, casual analysis, and correlating folklore. My intention is to curate tales that highlight the aspect…
The classic setting in which these tales are told are by the fire. Consider this your digital hearth-side. Pull up a chair, and listen to stories best told by candlelight.
