JULY 4th, 2011 – THE PHANTOM ROOM AT THE PENGUIN HOTEL The Weird Brothers investigate a hotel room where 8 people have mysteriously vanished.

At long last, the Weird Brothers ARG is back! Chapter 4 is like The Shining meets the Backrooms, so if that sounds remotely appealing to you, check out the website and do some sleuthing. There's a puzzle in this one that I'm particularly proud of. www.wherearetheweirdbrothers.com/post/july-4t...

Hey everyone! Queer horror writer here, author of the Neverglades series and the "Weird Brothers" ARG, finally jumping off the Meta sinking ship. Hoping to rebuild my community on Bluesky and make connections with other writers. For those who've been here longer - where's a good place to start?
