It's late October, just before the clocks fall back, and I'm working the 2-to-6 shift at a diner outside a town called Nye, Nevada—a place that's barely a town anymore, just a few trailers and a gas station off a two-lane road. The man comes in around 3:30, wearing a coat that's too heavy for the desert night, and he orders black coffee and a slice of apple pie, no ice cream. He doesn't look at me when I set it down. He doesn't look at anything. He just stares at the sugar dispenser like it's the most important thing in the room. I'm used to quiet customers, but this is different. This is the kind of quiet that has weight to it. And when he finally speaks—an hour in, without warning—the thing he tells me is about the house he grew up in, and what it does to people who try to leave it. I don't know if he's telling the truth or if he's just tired. But the way he looks at the window after he says it, like he's waiting for something to appear in the glass—that I'll remember. #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #LastCallAtTheDiner #LunaNarrates #NyeNevada #EmptyHouse #CoffeeAndPie #SmallTownHorror #AtmosphericHorror #SoloNarrated #LateNightDiner #DesertNights #MoonlessNight #TheHouseOnRalstonRoad #Dread #UnresolvedEnding #QuietHorror #ListenerSupport Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
