First off I'm sorry for your loss. It's hard losing a loved one early in life, and I can empathize.

Secondly, (sorry I might have missed this explanation somewhere) why haven't you up and left this haunted woodland? The upkeep must be bleeding you dry, the consistently disappearing staff and cryptid hunters aren't exactly enticing and the isolation is not good for anyone's mental health.

Furthermore if you fear the lack of lives to keep the creatures within the confines, whoever doxxed you has sent plenty of people with little perspective — and future prospect — to keep them entertained, surely (the "guns can deal with all problems" kind of people, who make my top favorite list right after STDs, cancer, organ failure etc.)

Anyway something that wasn't fully explained is why you started wearing your wedding dress, and kept it up. I might have missed the why but the gripping way you told your tale(s) kept me focused on other details.

EDIT: Also how are you getting internet there? If Leshy doesn't do good with fences, 20' poles or cables aren't really in his good books either.
