Green Lantern Cosplay or Coastal Smuggling?
Local fishermen spot an eerie glow, but your editor suspects something far more pedestrian than ghosts.
If you happened to be awake at the ungodly hour of 3:00 AM on Tuesday—perhaps questioning your life choices or waiting for the seagull chorus to subside—you might have spotted a strange, rhythmic green glow hovering near the old stone pier.
Naturally, the morning crowd at the docks immediately bypassed reasonable explanations and went straight to "the vengeful ghosts of 18th-century privateers."
Because why blame a high-powered submersible LED torch when you can blame a phantom in a tricorn hat?
The harbour master reports that no vessels were officially logged, and the mysterious light vanished the exact second a real, diesel-guzzling trawler engine coughed to life nearby.
While some suggest illegal night-fishing, the light was positioned perfectly in the absolute blind spot of our town’s single, tragically outdated security camera.
So, either the local cod have developed a taste for bioluminescent raves, or someone was dropping something very specific into the channel.
Place your bets at the post office.
