THE LONG SHADOW

THIS WILL HAPPEN OCCASIONALLY when you are walking alone on the beach. A long, dark shadow will start to grow alongside you and follow you wherever you are going. It doesn't matter what time it is, day or night. It is most unsettling at noon.

The farther you walk, the bigger and more misshapen it becomes. If you turn around you won't catch it. You won't find anything around that can cast a shadow like that. The only way to escape it is to find another person to join your company or to stop walking so it doesn't grow.

There are always people around so no one knows what happens if you don't escape.
