Straw-Man: A Midnight Society Special [Part 1] Season of the Witch

- Spirituality
The Midnight Society Specials are back!!
This time with episodic story-telling... Oooh how contemporary.
For this spooky season I am sticking with the annual tradition of telling ghost stories with the new and original tale 'Straw-Man'.
This story unveils the eerie adventure of Amir who, in a bid to secure essential funding for his flagging research, ventures into the isolated town of Fairfield to unearth the mysteries shrouding the unpublicized Straw-Man Festival. As a closeted gay man, he grapples with the town’s murky legacy and his own concealed sexuality, finding both solace and support in Ethan, the town’s devoted librarian covertly distributing banned literature. As their investigation begins to tug at the seams of the town’s tight-knit conservative community, Amir finds himself navigating the shadows of his identity amidst a town ensnared by fear and ancient secrets - all while balancing the thin line between the supernatural and a murderous reality.
If you have Spotify, you can now interact with the story too making predictions about what you think might happen next.
