PROMPT CHALLENGE: FAIRYTALES

[froodle]

They were the earliest stories many of us ever heard, and sometimes you didn't realise 'til later how incredibly horrific a lot of them were. It's the 21st of the month, so it's time to think about the type of fairytales the people of Eerie tell their children? This month's theme is:

The Most Haunted Road in Indiana?

[froodle]

There are a plethora of haunted places in Indiana, as well as spooky catacombs. While Indiana has its fair share of paranormal places, there is one road in particular rumored to send chills up your spine. Blood Road just outside of Dunkirk has a dark, tragic story that might just make it the most haunted road in all of Indiana.

Located just north of Muncie, Dunkirk is a pretty small town. The haunted road in this story is actually County Road 700, which runs just outside of Dunkirk, and is referred to as Blood Road…and for good reason.

You've probably heard of a Harvest Moon, one of the more commonly heard names. That was the time to finish harvesting the crops for the winter, sometimes aided by the light of the full moon in September (or October — the moon's not always that precise).

EW on the unanswered questions the Twin Peaks revival needs to answer

[froodle]

In 1990, Twin Peaks became an unexpected hit for ABC. Viewers were thrilled by the seedy mysteries simmering under the surface of the titular small town, and intrigued by the surreal touches courtesy of creator David Lynch. Ratings dropped off in 1991, as the mysteries were solved and the surreal touches became too weird for their own good. The show was cancelled after its second season, but it never left the pop-culture imagination. Twin Peaks was too bold and strange to simply be forgotten. A cult following was born.

Then, in a twist as unexpected as anything the show ever pulled off, the world learned that Twin Peaks would be coming back for a third season in 2017, 26 years after the second ended on a series of cliffhangers. Lynch and cocreator Mark Frost have a lot of explaining to do. Here are the five questions the third season of the show most needs to answer.
