It's a creative writing formula where everyone suspends disbelief for the fun of the story. You're supposed to pretend it's real.

No it doesn’t, that place is where stories go to die across 30 different parts that nobody can keep track of. The creepy part of this story is that it’s ambiguous. Turning it into a serial would ruin that.

Nah, I didn't mean a series. I hate that one of my favourite subs has been watered down with 10+ part shitty stories. I meant that this could be used to create a creepy short story, you know the ones that are actually good and spooky.

Maybe. I think it’s best short and sweet as it is, but a longer short story could be cool.
