This list was created with the assistance of ChatGPT. I found all twenty tales to be very bizarre yet interesting.
We're not done yet.
Let's play a game. Pick a numbered tale and leave a comment. It could be one word or in Partha's case 2000 words. Hahahaha!
For example, I picked number 8 : I ate a slice of pie already, made a wish and I'm still phat. Look at cover image.
Tasters please don't overeat!🙂
Thank you for reading. And, Happy Thanksgiving Thursday.

Number 15 speaks to me, Maxine. I take a bite of pie and instantly revealed is a future of endless traffic; so much that I can't begin to handle it all, and eventually, I die laughing clothed in a gold sequined jacket like Elvis would wear.
Very awesome, indeed, Maxine. as well as some stellar alliteration!
Happy Thanksgiving!🦃

Your strange stories remind me of a book I'm reading about a mysterious hermit who lived in the woods in a cabin he built himself and made dire predictions about the future of humanity. You've provided some great ideas for someone wanting to write a dark story.
Personally, I'm drawn to the cranberry bog, and what secrets it might reveal.
Lots of ideas for someone who wants to write about the mythical and macabre.
Yep yep yep, Fran.
Happy Thanksgiving!
