ASHDOWN VIBESName of thing: Calgary Gideon Keys and Glasgow Gideon KeysWhat is it? Creepypasta/short-form horror fiction Do you have anything to say about it? Some good spooks about a series of supernatural items/phenomena purported to exist in Calgary and Glasgow. I haven't read as much of Calgary's as I have of Glasgow's, but there's some real good stuff in there. Serious body horror warnings for a few of the stories though, tread with caution friends.

ASHDOWN VIBESName of thing: LoreWhat is it? podcast Do you have anything to say about it? It is not a serial narrative, but a show that covers various myths, stories and legends. Vampires, werewolves, changelings, and unsolved crimes are just a few of the topics touched on. Most of the material is based around real world accounts and the point of view is very much grounded in reality, but without the harsh lens of skepticism. Warning: many of the topics involve real world deaths and tragedies, and exploring horrors inspired by human fear and prejudice.

ASHDOWN VIBES Name of thing: Chilling Tales for Dark Nights ( website & youtube) What is it? Narrated creepypastas, short horror stories, or even things by actual horror authors (HP Lovecraft and several others). Do you have anything to say about it? Standard warnings about some of this being creepypastas that are narrated but there are several stories that they have brought to life that very much embody the feel and lore of Ashdown. It's not just horror but also science fiction, mystery, and that feeling that you really should have left well enough alone and you didn't.

ASHDOWN VIBES Name of thing: The Secret World, as well as its related games The Park, and more loosely, The Black Watchmen (I am 90% that it takes place in the same universe as the other two do) What is it? GAMES Do you have anything to say about it? TSW takes place in a modern setting with 'a secret paranormal world' tucked in among the normal things. Magical secret societies deal with the supernatural things. TSW itself has a few horror elements to it, the Park is definitely a creepy horror game dealing with the past of one area of TSW, and TBW is an alternate reality puzzle type game that may involve emailing sites set up specifically for the game.

ASHDOWN VIBES Name of thing: Goodbye To A World - Porter Robinson What is it? Music Do you have anything to say about it? This song always makes me cry, honestly, but I was listening to it a lot towards the end of the October-December 2016 meta; given our creation of a world that's our own (albeit in a dubious sense), a lot of the lyrics are uncomfortably spot-on. The song also has a very heavy sense of tension and weight to it, as the lyrics steadily become more distorted before eventually becoming nothing but noise at the end. --updated to here--
