They Bottled Children's Screams

In 1930s Ohio, a covert group known as the Hollow Men terrorized small towns under the leadership of a man named Nicotine. Their objective: to extract and weaponize fear. Using a strange machine capable of recording soundwaves from screams, the group captured the terror of children. These recordings were reportedly sold on the black market, and believed—by some—to have therapeutic or even ritualistic power.
