I've been looking for the source of the graveyard music, like I'm sure half of us are. I haven't been able to pinpoint where it's originating from within the city, but I have found a hole in the net. There's no music in the graveyard at the Holy Light Church, and I don't think it has anything to do with its geographic location.

I wouldn't consider it a safe haven, if you're trying to escape the effects. The people belonging to the church are unpleasant, and very territorial, and any more potential converts will probably start to strain credulity. They're very concerned with hell and damnation and being judged by their god.

They all seem to feature eyes very heavily.]


Their choice of decorating may not actually be telling, but it is very interesting.

I've had a little more success looking for where the threat originally started. Gloucester isn't the only place that's had to deal with the music. It's been happening up and down the northern part of the Eastern Seaboard for the past decade, always between September and December.

The very first incident was in Wolf Trap, Virginia, ten years ago. Not long before the music started, there was a house fire in the town. The only survivor was the family's 10-year-old daughter, Amber.


[Only a single picture this time, a newspaper reprint of a family photo. Those who were present at the nightmare version of the previous year's Hallowe'en party might recognize the girl in the photo as someone who bears a striking resemblance to Ava, the Lullaby Girl.]

She vanished into the foster system very quickly. It may be possible to find out where she went, and to track down the "Mr. S" who's been aiming her from there, but it will take some time.

I think we're heading for the worst case scenario. Somehow I can't imagine she's going to get out of this okay. Not making so many people this angry. We don't even know if she knows how to stop.

I don't even know if that's a good option either. She's still just a little girl. It's not like there's a cure for this but I don't even know if we could make her understand.

Not sure there's really an option to live with either. Just to accept it and try to do better next time.

But I still have to keep hoping for a better option. Otherwise I'll stop looking for it, you know?

I'm finding I have to be, even if there's a lot of reasons not to.

But I guess we'll see what happens.
