Beach Bum Visions Leave Community Baffled

Residents of a nearby beach community are abuzz recently, as several people say they have experienced unusual bouts of sleepwalking, along with hallucinations of a mysterious specter skulking along the beach at night.

At least five nights over the last month, local residents say they have gone to bed as normal, but are beckoned from their homes by the spirit of a shaggy bearded man wearing a robe. They say the ghost brings them to the beach, and compels them to walk alongside the shore for many hours. Affected people also state that the figure places visions of their past in the sky above the shoreline, and that the visions end and the figure disappears when they reach events from the previous day.

Authorities initially looked into the claims as kidnappings, but no evidence of an intruder was found at the residents' homes, and when they have checked the beaches only one set of footprints is ever found. However, police have circulated an artist's rendition of the man based on descriptions from witnesses, and encourage everyone to come forward with any information as to the man's identity or whereabouts. The police recreation has been included below:

Do you have absurd images that you really want to add to your exposé - even though they are completely unrelated? Do you delve into the fine art of paraphrasing Reddit and Twitter posts that people can read perfectly well for themselves without your narration?

Book Review: This Old Tome I Found*

Person Reading Book Photo on Unsplash So, I was at an estate sale the other day, and I bought this beautiful locked box. The seller told me that they'd never been able to open it, and it had just been sitting around in the attic for a few generations. Naturally, I immediately needed to have it. I got it home and began what I thought would be a difficult enterprise in attempting to open a box that was stuck closed for potentially hundreds of years (without damaging it). But, it wasn't difficult at all. I went to examine the latch, and as if it were fate, it opened with ease. I thought for a second that the inside was glowing, but it was probably the 8 shots of espresso I had earlier in the day. But, inside, I actually found was a beautiful old leather-bound tome! I couldn't quite make out what was written on the cover, but I was able to determine the word "horror", so I think it will be a fun spooky story. As my loyal readers, I felt it was only right to bring you
