Hey there, kids, it's me, Mr. Creepa Pasta.

And before we get started on tonight's story, I'm going to let you know about a new video game that myself and General Drown just put out.

We finished this for a game jam.

It's available now for PC, Mac, and Linux.

And like I said, it's free.

The date is relatively easy to pin down.

The day before, October 15th, a traveling salesman named Arnold Johnson passed through the

small town in an unsuccessful attempt to sell an exciting new product.

The bagless vacuum cleaner.

During an interview with authorities afterwards, Johnson said he noticed nothing unusual

about Edmondson the day before the

disappearances.

He did, however, remarked that none of the housewives he spoke with during his brief stay

seemed remotely interested in his product, something he found slightly surprising compared

to the response he typically received when demonstrating the vacuum cleaner to a similarly sized town.

Not only did I not sell a single vacuum cleaner, but no one even wanted to see the product in action, he said during the interview.

If you can get in the door and show the woman what the vacuum could do, you were guaranteed a sale.
