## Resource

February 1995. The Crescent Motel outside Pella, Iowa, six rooms, a flickering vacancy sign, and a bell jar on the office counter that held something none of the guests ever mentioned. Luna checked in at two in the morning, exhausted from the highway, and the night clerk — old man named Hollis — told her to keep her room key on her at all times, even in the shower. She thought it was just small-town paranoia. But by the third night, she understood the rule had nothing to do with locks. This is the story of what lives under glass when you're not supposed to look, and what happens when the glass breaks. #TheCrescentMotel #BellJar #PellaIowa #February1995 #Hollis #RoomSix #Luna #HighwayHorror #NightClerk #Glass #UnderGlass #MotelHorror #BoundInBlack #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #Anthology #AtmosphericHorror #SlowBurn Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
