In 2014, one of our Weird Book operatives conducted a study on Mergotz and stumbled upon a tape recorder hidden beneath a floorboard in an abandoned house in a nearby town. To our surprise, the recording contained the last testament of Dr. Chloe Mullins, a cultural anthropologist. It appears she was researching a phenomenon known as the "Last Fire" and became entangled with some questionable individuals. The tape was subsequently handed over to the FBI, but as of now, there has been no trace of Dr. Mullins. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The recording in question dates back to 2008 and appears to document an investigation spearheaded by a detective named John Gable from the Hainsville Police Department in Hainsville, Washington.

Since stepping down from his position, Gable's current whereabouts remain a mystery.  The Comic is thought to still be at large. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
