The Wait at the Edge of the Tule River Bridge

December 1997, near the Tule River Bridge just outside Porterville, California. Luna is nineteen, hunting alone for the first time since her father died. She follows a blood trail into a dry riverbed and finds a man named Emmett, who has been waiting thirty-five years for a deer that is no longer just a deer. What he tells her under the bridge will change how she reads the woods forever. No monsters. No gore. Just the slow, patient understanding that some game is only ever allowed to leave on purpose. #TuleRiverBridge #Porterville #EmmettHayes #1997 #December #FirstHunt #Deer #BloodTrail #Waiting #DryCreek #Rifle #Patience #Legacy #Father #Grief #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #GameTrail Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
