It was the third week of October, somewhere between midnight and three in the morning, when I took a detour off Route 9 and ended up at the Silver Birch Motel in a town called Larkspur that I'd never heard of before. The place was nearly empty—just one other car in the lot, a dusty sedan with a cracked windshield. The manager's office had a light on, and a handwritten sign on the door said 'Ring Bell for Service.' I rang. No one came. I rang again. The bell made a sound like a small animal stepping on a twig. I pressed my face to the glass and saw a desk, a half-empty coffee cup, a calendar still open to March, and a telephone receiver dangling off the hook. I could hear the dial tone from outside. I should have walked away. I should have gotten back in my car and driven until I hit a town that had a gas station open past ten. But the light was on. And the door was unlocked. What I found inside the Silver Birch Motel that night changed how I see every empty parking lot, every lit window in a closed building, every sign that says 'Sorry We Missed You.' #SilverBirchMotel #Larkspur #Route9 #MotelHorror #October #TheNightTheLightStayedOn #GraveyardRotation #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #Luna #DialTone #EmptyParkingLot #DeskCalendar #CrackedWindshield #HandwrittenSign #OfficeLight #DanglingReceiver #SmallTownHorror Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
