Synopsis

What it is

The Thirteenth Sighting is an uncanny story about pattern, fear, belief, and the moment a person realizes the world may be stranger than they were willing to admit. What begins as a series of sightings becomes something more intimate and more dangerous. The story asks whether the unexplained is outside us, inside us, or waiting in the thin place between memory and madness.
