[WP] You bought a pair of headphones that are acting up. Every time you plug them in, you hear a different sound - first crying, then a war-zone, now just static. You plug them in again and are frightened to hear a desperate, tearful warning: "Whatever you do, DON'T unplug the headphones again."

[WP] "I'm sorry" you say to the wind. Your best friend drowned here 60 years ago and now you're sitting in the sand recollecting memories. A figure emerges in the distance from the ocean waves and walks toward you. "Come with me friend," they say, "let me show you where I've been all these years."

[WP] A lamp that burned at the top of a light house has gone dark for the first time ever. Unable to fix it himself, the owner hired your company to repair or replace it. You go for inspection. You swear you're not crazy, but he doesn't see what you see. You are stunned to find a dying fairy.

[WP] You have dementia. You can't remember what happened five minutes ago, let alone 10 seconds ago. You think all you did today was go to the grocery store, but now you're not sure. You don't know the time of day or where you are. Now you're being held at gunpoint and need to survive.
