The Hollowing of Maddy Durand

from Whatever Walks the Pines — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo

In the summer of 1997, Luna's cousin Maddy came back from a walk in the woods near Tiller, Oregon, and wasn't quite Maddy anymore. At first it was small things—she stopped eating meat, stopped sleeping in her bed, started drawing the same symbol over and over. Then the hollowing began: her voice went thin, her shadow moved wrong, and something at the edge of the property started calling her name at night. Luna stayed with Maddy's family for two weeks that August, watching her cousin become a shell. This is a story about what gets left behind when a person goes—and the shape that fills the space. #TillerOregon #TheHollowing #MaddyDurand #Cousin #Shadows #Symbols #ForestHorror #PacificNorthwest #1997 #August #FreytagRidge #DrawnSymbol #PineNeedles #GoneThin #NoClosure #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #AnthropologyOfLoss #PacificNorthwestHorror #CryptidStories Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
