The Thirteenth Step at Wainwright Lookout

In the summer of 2009, Luna spent a week alone at Wainwright Lookout, a fire tower perched on a ridge above the town of Lost Creek, Oregon. She went for the solitude, to clear her head after a rough breakup. But on the third night, she started noticing things about the tower's spiral staircase that didn't add up. The steps didn't count the way they should. The top of the stairs felt farther away than the height of the tower allowed. And the wind — the wind carried a sound that wasn't wind at all. A low, rhythmic hum, like a machine buried deep in the mountain. Or like something breathing. Over the next two nights, she tested it, measured it, and eventually, she climbed those stairs with a flashlight and a notebook, chasing a discrepancy that she still can't explain. This is the story of what she found on the thirteenth step — and what followed her down. #WainwrightLookout #LostCreekOregon #TheThirteenthStep #FireTower #SpiralStaircase #OregonCoastRange #ForestService #DisappearingSteps #BreathingMountain #Summer2009 #SolitudeHorror #AtmosphericHorror #QuietHorror #UncannyArchitecture #TrappedInPlace #LunaAlone #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
