Summary

The unknown is the single, greatest, most universal human fear. So, naturally, it follows that familiarity is the greatest, most universal human comfort.

Prologue

December 15th, 1975

Something is very wrong in this place.

I don't know what happened, but it was certainly horrific, and I wish to god that I had never gotten involved.

I should've known it was all so wrong. I've always had a lack of common sense when it's needed most.

And now it'll be the end of me.

I can't clear my head. Every day, they're getting closer, and I can feel myself slipping away.

I don't want this to be the end of me, but I know that I'm on limited time. This will probably be my last entry.

If you find this, this forsaken diary, I hope that it is because it has somehow escaped this place, something I couldn't do, and not because you're here.

And if you are, good luck.

You're going to need it.
