The Empty Room at the Sanderson Motel
from Letters to the Night Desk — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo
Luna checks into room 8 at the Sanderson Motel on Route 22 outside Bicknell, Indiana, a rainy October night in 2018. The room is still made up from the last guest, but there's no record of anyone checking in. The TV flickers to life on static, the heat kicks on and off without cause, and every time she looks at the mirror over the dresser, she catches a reflection that isn't hers. Then the phone rings. A woman's voice asks for someone named Marie, and when Luna says wrong number, the woman apologizes and hangs up. But the phone keeps ringing the same call, every twenty minutes, all night. By dawn, Luna learns the previous occupant left everything behind—clothes in the closet, a toothbrush, a prescription for anxiety meds—and walked into the field behind the motel four nights ago and never came back. Luna leaves before checkout, but she still hears that woman's voice when the line is silent. #SandersonMotel #Route22 #BicknellIndiana #Room8 #Marie #EmptyRoom #WrongNumber #Reflection #TVStatic #OctoberNight #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #LettersToTheNightDesk #Anthology #Luna #MotelHorror #DisappearedGuest #PhoneCall Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
