Scarecrow of 1889

There once was a boy who was an orphan and suffered abuse from his village residents. The only friend he had was the dummy scarecrow on the field, whom he talked to. One day, a wealthy man brutally beat the boy. The next morning, the wealthy man was found dead, and the scarecrow was covered in blood. Terrified, the villagers were convinced that the scarecrow had come to life to avenge its tormented friend. And it was the last scarecrow ever placed again in the fields, considering it a sign of death. — After scarecrow dolls begin appearing in the streets of Riddleford next to murder victims, the town is thrown into chaos. When the hunt for the mystery scarecrow murderer begins, it is only a matter of time before the famous Frontier Hall Opera House employees are subjected to suspicion, each protecting a secret of their own. But is that all that is going on? Or is there something unseen?

Repentance

One night, Mayor Andrew Martin sat in his reading chair, enjoying the music from the gramophone with a pipe in hand. His wife, seated on the edge of the bed, was rubbing cream on her hands. A knock on the door interrupted the tranquil scene.

"Come in," his wife called out. But the knocking persisted, unanswered. She repeated, louder this time, "Come in!"

Turning slightly annoyed as the servant didn't enter the room, Mayor Andrew got up from his comfortable chair and walked to the door. However, upon opening it, there was no one standing there or in the long corridor.

"Are the servants playing a prank?" he asked no one in particular. He closed the door and turned when another knock was heard on the door. This time, he turned irritated and opened the door swiftly.
