## Resource

November 1998. A frozen stretch of railroad outside Spruce Creek, Missouri. Luna's cousin June called her that night — said she'd seen something on the crossing that wouldn't stop counting. By the time Luna got there, the air smelled of creosote and burnt copper, and the gate was down over an empty track. June was still in her car, engine running, hands on the wheel at ten and two. She wouldn't explain what she saw. She just kept repeating a number. This is the story of that night, and the count that never ended. #SpruceCreek #RailroadCrossing #counting #November #1998 #June #Cousin #Midnight #Frozen #Creosote #BurntCopper #Gate #EmptyTrack #Number #Missouri #SmallTown #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
