Mad Gasser - Day 55

Race: Vile

Alignment: Dark-Chaos

June 14th, 2024

Some demons are conspiracies. Some are mass hysteria. But if we were to combine the two? The interesting annals of American history have several strange sidenotes, but one of the most baffling is related to the sleepy town of Mattoon, that being an incredibly curious case of the Mad Gasser of Mattoon, today's Demon of the Day.

In September of 1944, as recanted by Colin Dickey on AtlasObscura, Aline Kearney was spending some time home with her young daughter, Dorothy, and sister, Martha. It was the height of the second World War, a time of panic and unrest, and while her husband was off serving the Navy, the constant stream of news about lives lost only led to further stress for poor Aline. As day turned to night, however, it went from stressful to downright bizarre. A strange, sickeningly saccharine smell flooded Aline's nostrils, though Martha, who was presumably in the room with her, had smelled nothing. Things went downhill fast as Mrs. Kearney's legs suddenly froze up, her throat constricted, and she became paralyzed from the waist down. Terrified, Martha went to call her husband, but as he arrived, the suspect had already left- a tall, cloaked man in a gas mask.

This first attack is inexplicable... as were the rest. The Mad Gasser struck 33 times over the span of 12 days after his story was picked up in the newspaper, with several families reporting to the police and news that they had been woken up deep into the night, legs frozen in place and throats dry and scratchy. While none of these attacks were fatal, the confusion surrounding them gave way to the burning question as to why they even happened. There wasn't any real motive for them, and they were almost purely random! Later on, an officer released a report that it was likely the result, not of an attacker, but rather toxic gasses blowing over with the winds from a nearby power plant.

However, that conclusion has been heavily disputed, and still to this day explanations are sparse. The most widely accepted one, however, is that of this not being an enigmatic attacker, but rather a case of widespread mass hysteria. The concept of mass hysteria, if you're not familiar, is effectively defined by 'a group of people acting in an odd way for extended periods of time-' historical instances like the Meowing Nuns or the Dancing Plague come to mind, but it can be attributed to even entire hallucinations or actions. As with the Dancing Plague, the people attacked were effectively uncontrollably stopping, experiencing hallucinations that brought them to believing that they were, indeed, a victim of a gas attack.

Combine the high stress of the times with the first attack spreading widely throughout the news, and you have a potent recipe for disaster. However, what still sticks out is the figure spotted running away from the first instance of an attack. Most people consider them to be a concerned neighbor who was checking in on the chaos going on in the house, but the way he ran away may bring different ideas to mind. Past this, several attacks later down the line mention a similar figure spraying gas into their houses almost like spray paint- while this was likely just a hallucination as well, the concept of a figure being responsible in-and-of itself for these attacks has purveyed throughout pop-cultural consensus, and it's this figure that is the Demon in question today.

The enigmatic figure responsible for these attacks is widely unknown, but what we do know about it is that they were an individual wearing dark clothing with a tight-fitting cap. And that's it. Yeah, there's not much else to any depictions, given that all reports of this man take place in the absolute dead of night. However, despite how little they had to work with, I feel like the Mad Gasser's design in SMT works really well to portray the idea behind them. It also looks frankly cool as hell.

When a bunch of tractor owners get together, they often have what is referred to as “a slow race.” I know this is a paradoxical concept, and anyone with any inkling of exposure to the inner workings of the English language is now trying to gnaw their own teeth off. Keep with me on this: the goal is to be the slowest one.

Easy to do, right? Just don’t push the gas. Let the wind shove you gently towards the finish line. And maybe lay off the donairs before you hop in the passenger seat, in case there’s a slight downhill gradient and your competitors are lighter. It’s hard to do, in fact, because there’s a minimum speed that a tractor will go before it stalls. If your clutch skills aren’t as good as the next person’s, you’re going to stall the engine, and then you get disqualified. Now it’s a real race.

The reason why this is relevant to tractor folks is that 99% of the use of a tractor is going at a languid pace. Sowing crops. Sneaking up on wild horses so you can capture them in your Pokéballs. Pulling out the stuck cars of city people. Ripping down your hated enemy’s barn when he’s not looking. You can’t do these things with a lot of speed, because you’ll just spin the tires. Much like drill presses and kneeling down to pick up things after the age of 30, a slower tractor is a better tractor.

How, then, can we cheat at this race without becoming better drivers, or creating some elaborately complicated matrix of planetary gears and belt-drives that allows a gasser tractor to run turtle slow without stalling? The answer, my friends, is new technology. These narrowly-defined hayseed rules don’t disqualify Power Wheels as “tractors,” and I have it on good authority that these little 24-volt direct-current electric motors can keep ticking at the slowest speeds imaginable. Hold on a second, I think they’re calling my number.

Okay, yeah, that didn’t go as planned. It turns out that years of traumatic exposure to city traffic have conditioned me to instantly whack any throttle wide-open whenever there are no vehicles in front of me. Those little Power Wheels Deeres have a lot of torque and a really shitty diff, too. Yes, I did pirouette directly into the judge’s stand and then cause a follow-up uncontrollable battery fire, because my phone fell out of my pocket and got crushed in all the commotion. Still, I finished last, so I think I should win something.
