New England incidents teach a rhythm: polite towns, old families, water or hills that smell wrong, then a paper trail ending in sanitariums. Moit of Shub-Niggurath 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.
