Summary
While trying to survive his second high-stakes family dinner with his girlfriend's relatives, a nervous newcomer discovers that the mysteriously warm, perpetually set empty chair at the head of the table belongs to a beloved grandfather who passed away eleven years ago. Tales From The Blue Line: Every morning at three, Mason and Ally ride the Blue Line into downtown Chicago together. The train brings out its own brand of weird, which has led to Mason and Ally trading spooky stories to help their commute pass a little faster.
