The Morro Bay Fog-Mythos: A Collection of Spooky Stories
THE MORRO BAY FOG-MYTHOS
A Collection of Spooky Legends by Pamela Beach
THE FOG ISN'T JUST WEATHER. IT'S A PREDATOR.
Anyone who has lived in Morro Bay knows the fog. It rolls in from the Pacific, a silent, grey tidal wave that swallows the horizon, erases the three massive stacks of the power plant, and devours Morro Rock whole.
Tourists take pictures of it. Locals complain about the damp.
But there is a different kind of fog. A low, heavy, bruising mist that tastes of ozone and wet pennies. A fog that doesn't just obscure the world-it changes it.
In The Morro Bay Fog-Mythos, author Pamela Beach peels back the layer of the picturesque Central Coast to reveal the terrifying, interconnected legends hiding in the mist. In this chilling collection, the town you know becomes a landscape of nightmares.
ENTER THE MYTHOS:
The Water: Discover why the sea lions on the floating dock suddenly go silent in "The Silent Sea Lions," and listen for the third, deadly note of the foghorn in "The Groan of the Buoy Horn."
The Anchors: Witness the trap of "The Girl in the Window," where a reflection stops mimicking and starts watching, and hear the terrifying summons of "The Soundless Chime."
The Truth: Climb the hills to meet the ancient consciousness in "The Watchers on the Ridge," and dare to break into the decommissioned power plant in "The Stacks That Feed" to learn what they are really burning.
From the muddy depths of the estuary to the high, lonely ridges of the Santa Lucia mountains, these stories weave a single, terrifying tapestry. They tell of "Takers" that hunt from the tide pools, "Anchors" that trap the grieving, and a fire that burns the souls of the lost while the mud keeps the weight.
Perfect for fans of coastal gothic horror, urban legends, and the uncanny.
Read the collection that turns the Central Coast into a haunted landscape. But be warned: once you know what to look for, you may never look at the fog the same way again.
"Just tell yourself it's only the fog."
