The Woman Who Watched the Lake at Silver Cove
from The Hum at Night — Fexingo Horror · host Fexingo
Summer 1987. Silver Cove, a dried-up resort town on a man-made lake that never quite filled right. Luna recalls a woman named Margot who rented a dock-side cabin for thirty consecutive Julys, never once swimming or boating. Each night, Margot sat on the splintered pier in a white folding chair, facing the dark water, holding a battery-powered radio that played only static. Luna was thirteen, visiting her grandmother, and she watched Margot from her bedroom window for three weeks. She never saw Margot eat, sleep, or speak to another person. On the last night of July, the static stopped. The radio spoke one sentence in a voice that did not belong to any station. Then the water began to hum. Margot stood up, stepped onto the lake surface, and walked until she was gone. Luna never told anyone. She went back last month. The pier is still there. So is the chair. #TheHumAtNight #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #SilverCove #Margot #LakeHorror #ResortTown #Summer1987 #StaticRadio #Pier #WhiteChair #DockCabin #DrownedTown #ManMadeLake #WalkingOnWater #SilentWitness #AtmosphericHorror #CreepyEncounter Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
