Ever heard a fellow say, “A fog crept in”? Well, that’s just what happened. It crept in. It really did. There’s no better word for it. It was slow at first, just out there over the dark ocean. Then, when we were all asleep in bed, then it crept in.
It’s been hanging low over our heads all week. Only getting thicker. I’ve been hearing stories, too. I think people are just getting nervous, but ole Mary’s also seen them now. She’s no fool. Three of them passed outside her store. Big creatures, and the smell. Said like something died.
