Hey Hey Listeners! It's me, your favorite middle-of-nowhere gas station employee! Just kidding, I'm probably not your favorite anything. You probably don't even know who I am, but that's ok. That's why we're here. Why you're reading this post. So here's a little bit about me.

My name is Caro Greene. I was born on Halloween. I am a Chaser of the Unknown, and the creator of a podcast called Mil-Liminal.

I'm something like a Ghost Hunter. A human vortex to the other side. I'm also really good at spooky party tricks.

My podcast is inspired by the things that go bump in the night, which works out, cuz the gas-station I work at is on the borderline of the In-Between Places (which is a fancy way of saying I work the midnight shift on an old dark highway in the middle of the woods.)

Am I fictional? There’s stories about me so I think that makes me real. What constitutes real? Existing in the mind of someone? Don’t we all in some kinda way?

I am an existential crisis.

Have you read this far? Good, here's the links (or listen where ever you catch your audio fiction!) Hit that reblog button to help me get Seen.

Got a question? Question everything, shoot me an ask, I don't bite (hard.) Got a spooky story? I'm always listening. Want a sample? Here's the introduction episode. Be kind, I have no idea what I'm doing, but we are all just learning, aren't we? Trigger Warnings listed where they apply. No jump scares. No hopelessness. Just vibes.

but I belong here. in the frame of sun heating my skin. I can see the blue veins in my hands, and I finger the faded fabric I was given a few years ago. And I wonder if these are my colors. If I have to have colors. I don't look in the mirror and see anyone yet. But its becoming clearer. like Polaroid brightening up, a picture underneath the haze that you have NO idea what you'll find when it's developed.

I'm holding my breath. Not today.

But someday. And I have hope.

I inhale and I get up, bare feet on the floor. I step outside my door and I feel the burn of the concrete. The sharp edge of the asphalt on the soles of my feet. I close my eyes and all I see is blinding orange and red behind my lids. The slight breeze the ruffles the tiny invisible hairs on my arms and gives me a tingly sensation all over, and I think maybe one day I want a motorcycle, and the thought swoops my heart into my throat like the swell of music making your soul sing at the height of its power. I think its the closest I'd ever get to flying. It makes me feel alive.

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

🌈AM I DOING THIS RIGHT??🌈 I saw other audio fiction friends making Pride flags color picked from their shows, and I wanted to give it a try! I stuck with the flags already canon in the show or associated with Caro and co for now (and co being Mary cuz we haven’t explored much else that I think is terribly obvious yet.) im kinda really into that neon vibes trans flag

Happy Pride!

do you know what a vortex is?

it's a doorway, a rift, the places where the veil is the thinnest. during the Blue Hour, when the moment and circumstance is just right, that's where the passage through to the In-Between Place lies.

these are spots in the air around us, the fleeting unseen, that uneasy feeling of standing still in a place made for passing through. The Liminal Spaces-

as far as i know, these passageways were not meant to be tangible, they aren't alive. they are the hairs standing on the back of your neck, the nostalgia for things you've never known. a path to things you cannot imagine. they are the staircases you stumble upon in the woods of your mind, the feeling of dread in a midnight rest stop.

i don't understand how you can exist, little Seer. The Unknown Things are not meant to be human.

-happy friday the 13th.

Now let’s go visit the haunted grave

Take my hand we must be brave

And afterwards we’ll get our fortunes read

But when the sun comes up we’ll both be dead

Its Halloween
