Dead Air at Cedarlock Point

Dead Air at Cedarlock Point is a parser-based paranormal mystery set at a small-town AM radio station on the Maine coast. A routine town-history call-in show takes a strange turn when host Dale “Big D” Rourke accepts a genealogy caller who reads a line from an old record packet. The call ends. The night does not.

Dead air hits without warning. Critical transmitter components are found switched off. A second layer of audio begins to bleed beneath broadcasts, voices and chanting that do not belong to anyone in the building. At first it feels like sabotage or a sick prank. Then the disturbances turn physical: doors, lights, footsteps, cold spots, things moving when no one is near them.

Investigate the station, follow leads into its history, and decide what you believe as the line between technical failure and haunting breaks down. In Cedarlock Point, the signal is only part of the story, and whatever was awakened does not want to be ignored.
