There was this egl horror story where a girl spent months making her own egl dress. She was so excited to show it off at a convention. But on the day of the convention, she accidentally spilled coffee on it right before leaving. She tried to clean it up quickly, but it left a big stain. She was heartbroken as she had put so much time and effort into creating that dress.
A common one is bad customer service from egl shops. For example, orders taking months to arrive with no communication from the seller.

Perhaps a story about a desolate forest. A group of hikers went into the forest and got lost. As night fell, they heard howls that didn't sound like any normal animal.

And then there's Arthur C. Clarke known for '2001: A Space Odyssey'. But again, no clear connection to 'egl 389'.
I heard a story where in a house share, there was a really noisy roommate. He would play loud music late at night, every night. Not only that, but he also had friends over constantly who were equally noisy. The other housemates couldn't get any proper sleep or study in peace. They tried to talk to him, but he just ignored them and continued his inconsiderate behavior.
