The Lore of Western

        This week on the Lore of Western we decided to sit down and have a one on one discussion about the catacombs of Western with Mr. Ford. Ford has been serving Western as a teacher for about 20 years and in his time he has told us very chilling things. 

When asked what he knew about the catacombs Mr. Ford was hesitant at first, but then fully opened up to us. He told us that “sometimes when i’m here late in the afternoon, everyone is out of the building I hear children down stairs laughing, some crying, some screaming. You hear the voices cry out.”

We asked Mr. Ford to go more in-depth about the voices. He explained to us that not only does he hear them calling out to him at the school but he also hears them late at night when laying in bed. He also explained that he can not get them out of his head at times. He tells us that the voice “just become ingrained in you and they just become apart of you.” 

Mr. Ford also hypothesizes that not only are there a dozen or so children that may have been problem children from the past chained up in the catacombs. He also hypothesizes that dog sized spiders might be holding those children captive down there. While he’s not sure what exactly the spiders do with them he did however have this to say “they don’t sound like normal… they don’t bark ok so there’s like a screaming screech thing that happens and then once the screeching is done children start crying”

Finally when asked what he believes how large the catacombs are he responded with “I think there’s a labyrinth under the school that could possibly lead up and over to the administration building. I’m not sure what they have over there but it is definitely not a place I would want to be at night.”

In closing, Mr. Ford provided us spectacular information on the mysteries and horrors of the catacombs but with this new knowledge we are left to wonder what else could be under our very own feet.
