Evelyn: bites nails U-uh... You know about 432 Hz music, right? Th-the dark secret... it's here.
Knock knock knock We're here now, welcome to...the neighborhood watch meeting! Where EVERYONE is family—and yet, you feel ALONE 😩🙃
Evelyn: I-I-if you're l-looking for t-trouble, y-you've c-come to the r-right p-place... I m-mean, w-welcome to our n-neighborhood watch meeting.
Uh, hello? Anyone else getting creepy vibes here?
Evelyn: O-oh, y-yeah, you c-can say that... W-we're all j-just trying to c-coexist in t-this messed up p-place.
Hey, remember when we got lost in the woods as kids? Scariest place ever! But that songbirds' chorus was like a GPS!
Evelyn: Y-yeah... that w-was kind of... s-scarier than anything. B-but hey, at l-least w-we made it b-back alive, r-right?
Right...so why are we here now? Did we get a new neighbor or something?
Evelyn: W-well, sort of... There's this n-neighborhood g-gossip that someone new m-moved into the h-house across the s-street.
And you don't think it's just old Mrs. Peterson again?
Evelyn: Nah, I d-don't think so... Mrs. P-peterson's been Mrs. P-peterson for the l-last 50 years.
Wait, so who's this new neighbor? Are they like...a vampire or something? This place needs one more supernatural threat!
Evelyn: Haha, well... I d-don't think vampires are r-real, but who knows? Maybe they're just l-like us, just with cooler s-shoes and better d-denture insurance.
Now that I think about it...this place does feel kinda weird. You still get that creepy feeling when everyone's around?
Evelyn: Y-yeah, you know m-me, I get j-just as spooked when I'm a-alone as w-when there's a c-crazy looking s-stranger in the n-neighborhood.
Don't forget the time we saw that shadow figure in the park! We screamed so loud everyone came running!
Evelyn: Oh man, y-yeah... that was a w-wild night.
So...do you think this new neighbor is dangerous? Should we keep our distance?
Evelyn: W-well, I d-don't think they're dangerous per se...
But you wouldn't blame us for being cautious? I mean, we're talking about our small town here!
Evelyn: Y-yeah, you're right. It's j-just... hard to t-trust anyone in this p-place.
Exactly! Remember how everyone stared at us when we were lost as kids? No one helped, they just pointed and whispered!
Evelyn: Y-yeah, people in this t-town can be r-really... s-strange.
Like that time we saw someone walking backwards on the road? He looked so creepy!
Evelyn: nervously chuckles Y-yeah... t-that was kind of s-suspicious, wasn't it?
Yeah, it felt off...but hey, at least we made it out alive, right?
Evelyn: Y-yeah, we did... And we even made it o-out without getting t-too scarred for life.
Ha! Small victories, right? Like surviving this neighborhood watch meeting!
Evelyn: nervously laughs Y-yeah, surviving t-this place is definitely a v-victory.
Alright, let's finish up here. We don't want to keep everyone waiting!
Evelyn: O-okay, let's do t-this. I'll g-go first... takes a deep breath and steps forward towards the group of neighbors
Evelyn: nervously clears her throat U-uh, h-hey e-everyone, I-I'm s-so sorry to b-bother you all, b-but I have a few q-questions... Is there, uh, any-I-mean-is there a-new-uh... n-neighbor who's m-moved into the-a-house across-the s-street...? stutters nervously Neighbor 1: confused What? Who are you talking about?
raises an eyebrow Whoa, Ev! You really going there?
Evelyn: flustered, stammering I-I... u-uh, I-I mean... i-is there a-anyone new in t-the neighborhood? L-like, a c-crazy person o-or s-something?
