But the problem, first and foremost, was streaming. I am not a streamer. Not really, nor do I want to be one in the current sense of the word. Why do I hate it so much? Well, I am very introverted, and being that level of on and in the way one needs to be on when streaming takes a lot out of me. More than I cared to admit.

The Lore Reports of paranormal activity on Zombie Road vary from experience to experience. Some people hear footsteps following them, there are reports of rocks being thrown, orbs caught on camera and seen firsthand by people, shadow people, and so much more.
