## Resource

In the winter of 2003, Luna worked a graveyard shift at the county coroner's office in rural Maysville, Kentucky. A routine call came in from the state road crew about an unmarked grave near an old pauper's cemetery known as Potters Field. What they found beneath the frozen dirt was not what anyone expected—a shallow grave, a single iron headstone with a name scratched into rust, and a hole that seemed to breathe. Luna was tasked with watching the site until daylight, keeping the county's only floodlight trained on that patch of ground. The night was bone-cold and silent, save for the sound of the wind through winter wheat and something else—a rhythm, deep and slow, like a heartbeat in the earth. By morning, the grave was empty. The dirt had settled. But Luna still hears that rhythm sometimes, when the house is quiet and the heat kicks off. A quiet, slow-burn tale of rural dread and the things that wait beneath our feet. #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #TalesFromTheColdRoom #PottersField #MaysvilleKentucky #UnmarkedGrave #BuriedAlive #GraveyardShift #CoronerOffice #WinterNight #RustHeadstone #HeartbeatInTheDirt #FloodlightWatch #ShallowGrave #BeneathOurFeet #SlowBurnHorror #AtmosphericHorror #SoloNarrated Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
