One of the early videos in The FreakOptic Files was a creepy little poem called FOOTFALL JOE...
As visually simple as that video was to shoot, the multi-layered audio, with varying speeds, gave me hours of frustration back in 2017. FOOTFALL JOE is far from my most-viewed FreakOptics video, but it holds a special place in my horror heart.
Cut to 2020...
While recently digging through my unreleased words, I unearthed a sequel to FOOTFALL JOE, written in early 2018. I vaguely recall attempting a video but failing to capture the perfect visuals. So, I abandoned the project and forgot all about it...
Until now...
_______________
FOOTFALL JOE (verse two)
You best beware
of the blinding snow
For it won't stop
Ol' Footfall Joe
He will patiently wait
behind a tree
And follow you home
or wherever you flee
Then he'll steal you away
and remove your light
But only in
the dead of night
2018 / 2020, John L. Harmon

P.S. A very short scary story from the vault...
