This one has a very David Lynch feel to it (arguably more so than Nightvale, as in Nightvale the unexplained weirdness is so over the top and comical, where here it is threatening and just close enough to reality to make it uncomfortable).

I tried reading this once before, but found some of the subject matter was hitting me a little hard at the time. I've decided to pick it up again as I've always been curious about it. Enjoying it much more this time.
