Today we are bringing you another report of anomalous activity spotted around town. We've been getting reports today of some anomalous weather conditions. A thick fog has rolled into town, and visibility has been reduced significantly. We'd like to remind residents that fog can be dangerous, so please move slowly and carefully if you're planning to go outside. This of course is due to the presence of the "Staring Lady". On particularly foggy days such as this, a woman with an unkempt appearance and no eyelids is said to roam the streets. If she catches up to you, she will ask you an unusual question. If you answer incorrectly, tragedy is said to befall you. So, be careful today if you plan to go out in the fog.

Today's report is about the local neighborhood watch. Recently the group of vigilant citizens put out an ad for volunteer recruitment.

Residents are advised to keep away from this new member. If you feel someone watching you, it might be best to run away.

Depending on what number you dial, you may get a new message from this mysterious caller. According to today's reports, the current number is "<phone number here>". As usual, calling this number must be done at your own risk. Of course, finding a working phone can be a bit of a hassle these days. Elderfield is known for its terrible reception.

Today we are bringing you another report of anomalous activity spotted around town. There have been strange reports lately of civilians behaving oddly at the Elderfield Lakefront. According to eye witnesses, some townsfolk have been congregating by the water at night, and chanting in an unknown language. The townsfolk seen at these gatherings are said to look sickly and strange. Theirs eyes bulging wider than normal, and their speech, strained and wet. While so-far harmless, residents are advised to stay away from the lakefront today, as many of these odd civilians have been seen wandering toward it once again. Could it be a new trend? An elaborate prank? Or just the esoteric demands of an Old God? Who knows!

'Pumpkins' are a seasonal staple here in Elderfield. But, as you already know, there is more to these ghoulish gourds than meets the eye. Some sit still, others wander off, and some are less predictable than that... While a true pumpkin hasn't existed in Elderfield for longer than anyone knows, various imposters have moved in to take their place in our meals and culture. It should be no surprise then, that some convincingly orange, vine-y imposters have been popping up around town lately. These odd growths may at first appear to be real pumpkins, but rest assured, they are not. Anyone who finds one of these presistent pumpkin pests are advised to smash them into little pieces. That is, if you can approach one unscathed! You can tell which ones need a good bashing by their pulsating nature. So, what about you?

Residents may have heard a familiar jingling of bells, and a sinister laugh in the air today. As is often the case during this snowy season, the Gift Demon has been spotted once again. With his jolly red suit and pointy, horned mask, the Gift Demon is a festive sight to behold. Lugging around his great big bag of tricks and gifts, he somehow manages to visit each and every person during his rounds. As his name implies, this demon will judge the gift-giving abilities of each person he visits. If you've given a friend or loved one something they truly love that day, he will reward you with something special. But... fail to make those close to you truly happy, and he will make you regret it. So strong is the demon's influence that all residents are sure to be open to receiving a gift today, even if you've already given them several. So, get out there and give some gifts to those you care about! Hopefully you know them well enough to make them happy, so you can avoid the consequences...
