The Keushk

Vermont · USA · Theatre

Sound from outside goes muffled once you are inside, and the doors will not stay open. A woman is seen carrying a kerosene lamp.

The theatre and gathering hall at this camp in Thetford, Vermont, known as the Keushk, produces a consistent set of reports from people alone in it.

Cold spots, and unease.

Two details stand out. Sounds from outside go muffled once you are inside the building, and the doors will not stay open.

A woman has been seen carrying a kerosene lamp.

The muffling is the one worth thinking about. It is not a noise or a figure, it is the absence of the ordinary sound of a camp, and it is the sort of thing somebody notices without being able to say when it started.

A kerosene lamp dates her. Camps of this kind ran without electricity well into the twentieth century, and a woman crossing the grounds at night carried a light because there was no other kind.

The camp is private property.
