## Resource

A story about a man named Harlan Bouchard who fished the Grand Banks for thirty years without incident until the night of November 12, 1998, when his trawl net snagged on something that should not have been there. The net came up empty but the warp wire was scored with parallel grooves like fingernail marks. Three weeks later the same thing happened at the same coordinates on a different boat. Harlan started keeping a log of every vessel that reported a snag at the spot the fishermen call Number Nine. The log had forty-seven entries when he stopped writing. This episode follows Luna's visit to his house in Winterton, Newfoundland, where she saw the log and the thing that made him stop. #TheManWhoHeardtheTrawlatNumberNine #ColdWake #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #SoloNarration #Newfoundland #GrandBanks #DeepSeaFishing #TrawlNet #NumberNine #HarlanBouchard #Winterton #WarpWire #Grooves #FingernailMarks #FishingLog #UnresolvedHorror #AtmosphericHorror Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
