Crossing Kevin's Crossing

Hello Dear Readers, I have a confession to make, I have been a bit of an unreliable narrator.  I always try to be on the up and up with you but I have failed to be completely honest with about some current events.  In all honesty, I needed to time to do research and make sense of what I discovered before I shared it with you.  Boy, was it worth it! The other week I told you about the mystery man the appeared in Ziggy’s Mini Mart then suddenly died.  I also mention that later on when I was able to view the mini mart’s security tapes it liked there was a shadow moving in two frames of the tape that couldn’t be accounted for.  So the next day I walked down to there and had a look around.  Despite what had recently happened there it didn’t feel strange or unusual.  Just the same old mini-mart. I stood in the exact spot where he collapsed.  It was eerily.  I looked in the direction I thought I saw the shadow move in the tape.  Standing...

Hello Dear Readers, I still find myself out of sorts.  I haven’t had it into any exploring or investigations.  I’ve simply been watching the tomato plants grow (more on that next time) and listening to the radio.  The idea that the Vandal has been murdered, possibly by some other player in this game that is just barely coming to light is deeply unsettling.  Seeing as how I don’t even know what the stakes are. Fortunately, Otto has been asking me about writing a guest-post since I revealed to my friends that this blog does indeed exist.  I was apprehensive at the idea of letting anyone work on this blog but me, but he has been insistent. He claims to have many stories relevant to this from his many years he spent living on the streets, like that of Horatio Grey.  Since I find myself in no condition to write anything of my own and if I'm hi invest about it, he different if it from someone telling me a story and then writing it down? So why not mix th...

Hello Dear Readers, While at the Steaming Mug today I was reading a newspaper that someone kindly left on a table.  I saw a headline that seemed merely tragic and curious but turned out to be astonishing.  The title on page three read ‘Unidentified Man Killed in Car Accident’.  Obviously, I’m always on the lookout for keywords like ‘unknown’, ‘unexplained’, and ‘cheese-filled’.  When I started reading the article I got the shock of a lifetime. The article said that an unidentified man had been struck by a car at approximately 3:00 am, two days prior.  The driver of the car fled the scene and has yet to be found. The man had dark hair and eyes and was of an indeterminate ethnicity.  He is approximately 25 - 35 years old.  He is 5 ft. 8 in tall and 145 pounds.  He had no ID on him and the only possessions found at the scene where a baseball cap, a pair of sunglasses and a can of red spray paint!  It could only be the Vandal. I’m not re...

Hello Dear Readers, After my recent experience with Horatio Grey, I decided not to go waving my flashlight around out in the open anymore.  But I still have so many questions about the mystery bulb.  So I decided to conduct a series of experiments.  I purchased a table lamp that will accommodate the mystery bulb and two tomato plants.  One a placed on a table in front of the window, next to the radio, to act as a control.  The other tomato plant I put in a closet under the mystery bulb.  It has been a week since the experiment started, so far not much has happened with either plant.  No observable differences yet!  But I’m sure something weird and unusual is about to spout! I’ll keep you updated!

Hello Dear Readers, Word has reached me that the local coroner over in Telford became violently ill after exposure to ‘internal liquids’ while conducting an autopsy on the Mystery Man who appeared in Ziggy’s Mini Mart.  A HAZMAT team had to be called in to dispose of the body and the coroner is still in the hospital. Now we will never get information from the body. The mystery man looked mostly human on the security footage and from witness statements.  But the unusual bone structures in his chest and his toxic body chemistry leads me to believe that he was anything but human.  It seems unlikely that something so vastly different internally would just happen to look human. It seems to me that it would have to be designed that way. I’ll keep you updated!

Hello Dear Readers, After several large-scale strange encounters lately, I didn’t think Kevin’s Crossing would offer up anything new for a long time.  Oh, how wrong I was.  It feels like things are starting to pick up momentum. Another strange occurrence has taken place at the Ziggy’s!  I was not around so I’ve had to get the story second hand and managed to watch some grainy security camera footage thanks to my new soulmate Robyn, whose sister’s partner works there. Not to put too fine a point on it but a strange man appeared inside the Mini Mart and began shouting in an unknown language and acting hysterical.  as if he were just as surprised as everyone else, then collapsed and died.  There was one employee and three customers present at the time.  I’ve talked to people who have talked to people and gathered rumor and hearsay together with the silent black and white video, to try to put together a coherent version of the events.  Instead of ...

Hello Dear Readers, So, it turns out that the sinkhole in the Heights was not a total bust after all.  Eventually, the township began filling it repaved the street.  There were no problems, nothing unexplained and or otherwise.  Very disappointing.  Except Otto contacted me through Gemma.  It turns out his AA sponsor lives in the fancy Heights neighborhood directly across the street from the sinkhole.  Hooray for the chemical dependence! It seems that when you live in a rich neighborhood you install security cameras on the exterior of your house.  Cameras that could capture the edge of the sinkhole.  Apparently, they captured something odd, and he told Otto about it.  Otto recommended that he talk to me since he is aware of my interest in unusual phenomena.  The wonders of CCtv pays off again.  Perhaps I should have some cameras installed in the apartment.  It would help to keep track of the ‘not a real cat’. The time st...
