The Ghost in My Smart Home
It started with a flickering light. My smart home hub, a sleek orb named Aura, had been my lifeline since I moved into my Portland fixer-upper in early 2025. Single, 29, and drowning in student loans, I’d snagged the house cheap – a steal, the realtor swore, despite its creaky floors and rumors of a "tragic past." Aura controlled everything: lights, thermostat, locks, even my coffee maker. "Hey, Aura, set the vibe," I’d say, and it’d dim the LEDs to cozy, queue my lo-fi playlist, and brew a latte. I was living the millennial dream, or so I thought.

Veil of Shadows: The Fresno Nightcrawlers
Between the Streetlights: The Mystery of the Fresno Nightcrawlers There are cryptids that roar from the treetops, their legends wrapped in fangs, claws, and danger. And then there are others that unsettle us in silence. They arrive not with a chase or an attack, but with a strange gait across a grainy camera feed. Their power is not in what they do, but in what they refuse to explain. Few modern mysteries embody that uncanny restraint better than the beings now known as the Fresno Nightcrawlers.
