Concepts & Phenomena

Chutes and Ladders

Chutes and Ladders — a recurring phenomenon; understanding does not restore sanity. Register ME-1923-Y98/5567.

Overview

Expedition register ME-1923-Y98/5567 — cross-index under slug `chutes-and-ladders`.

Chutes and Ladders enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

We would delete Chutes and Ladders if deletion worked; instead we classify, cross-link, and warn.

New England incidents teach a rhythm: polite towns, old families, water or hills that smell wrong, then a paper trail ending in sanitariums. Chutes and Ladders may or may not follow that rhythm — check dates before you blame Cthulhu for a Vermont landslide.

Cross-reference before fieldwork; cite slug in all reports; do not bring back souvenirs that pulse.

Burn nothing found pulsing; catalogue first, then burn if protocol allows.

The Library holds primary text; this dossier holds orientation — never the reverse.

Archive Notes
