teeth

Over the last 2 days, I've been digging. I had to do it either at night or early in the morning when nobody was around, but yesterday afternoon everyone on my street had gone to the downtown 4th of july weekend bbq and I realized I had a good patch of daylight to work in. It's hard to dig and hold a flashlight at the same time.

I really didn't think I would find anything. I always think that. I should know better by now. I found something, you guys. Something big. Something that might change this entire thing.

I pulled these out of a hole I dug. It's another polaroid and something else. I didn't even want to know what the container was after receiving that last package, but here we are.

Remember that letter I got? Those weird symbols on the side of the envelope? Someone did some research and informed me that it meant teeth.

That's what's inside this thing. You'll notice the white strip of paper wrapped around it, but don't bother asking about it. There's no identifying information. It'd all been blacked out with marker or something. The teeth was weird, but at least I understand now what Silence had been leading me to. Who's teeth are they? No idea. Maybe she'll tell me but I highly doubt that. She doesn't seem to like to tell me much of anything. And I can't really take them to a dentist or a forensic scientist without it seeming like I murdered someone. I mean, where else would I obtain these teeth? So, I'm stuck. But that isn't what bothered me. The polaroid is what bothered me.

"Open". Another command. This bothers me on a few different levels. First off, the package said "Silence is a liar", which means Silence didn't send the package. So if she didn't send it, how did she take this photo? Secondly, why would she be telling me to open something that apparently neither of us knows what it is. But, her commands led me to this point, and I'm going to just listen to her, frustrating as she is sometimes.

So that's where we are. I'm gonna open that jar. I don't know what I'll find, exactly, but I know it'll lead me somewhere else.

Silence, if you're somehow reading this, I hope you know what you're doing...

i got this letter

I was going to stop updating here because I wasn't finding anything (especially not anything that was interesting enough to update) about the house or who had it torn down. I came to the conclusion on my own that it was probably the city's decision, seeing that it was abandoned and kind of an eyesore. You saw the photos. Thing was ugly.

But today I got a letter in the mail.

 I had to run upstairs and get my camera to take these, otherwise nobody would believe it. I barely believed it. As you can see from the photos I took, the thing is covered in some weird symbols, and whoever sent it knows my name. I took some more pictures of the symbols once I got upstairs.

I did some research online but couldn't find anything about these symbols online or anything, so if anyone knows what these mean, please comment on this post or something. I'm kind of at my wits end right now. It's hard to research a specific symbol on the internet. "Diamond thing with squiggly tail" isn't really a common search term for Google, believe it or not. The back of the envelope had this message on it.

I have absolutely no idea what to make of this statement. At this point, I'm thinking it's just some neighborhood kids screwing with me or something. "i like trees"? The hell does that mean? Anyway, all of this stuff-weird as it was-was nothing compared to what I found once I opened it.

A polaroid (who even USES polaroid cameras anymore?) that just says "dig". Sure, another cryptic statement, but what worries me the most about this photo is that it's a snapshot of the house that was torn down, but taken from what appears to be the angle of MY window. Whoever took this photo was INSIDE my apartment. I'm checking all my closets and shit right now. I might even have someone come spend the night. I don't really feel safe. I'll let you know if anything else happens, and if ANYONE knows what those symbols might mean, PLEASE let me know asap. Thank you.

construction

Woke up today to a lot of noise to discover that the house was being torn down. I never heard anything about it happening (I live in a small town, word gets around) and everyone else in my complex seems just as confused as I am. There was a shed and that's gone too.

That was taken last night, when I went over there. This is what's left today.

This is what I took today. That's what's left of the shed and the house is completely gone, like it never even existed. So weird to think I was just there. I'd like to find out who (and why) tore it down. I'll ask around, but I don't expect anyone to know anything.
