Creepy America Episode 8: The Red Eyed Man

By Noah Hoffmann

A series of horror short-stories, "Creepy America" recounts the webshow of the same name. Filmed, edited, and published by friends Zoey and Liam, the two traveled from state to state trying to find the truth behind the strange happenings, local hauntings, and urban legends all across the continental United State. Told years later from the perspective of Liam, these tales describe the events that transpired on the show, from the evolving friendship of the two co-hosts to the vast conspiracy uncovered piece by piece as more and more secrets are uncovered.

In this episode, Liam and Zoey are contacted by a woman who claims that a red eyed man sits staring outside of her orphanage every night, and their investigation finds far more questions than it does answers.

A mild-mannered truck driver by day, I spend my nights writing mostly at an attempt to convince the last few shreds of sanity I have not to jump ship with the rest. When I'm not doing that, you can usually find me playing tabletop rpgs, raiding the "50 cents" section of bookstores, and generally committing similar acts to solidify my reputation as a "huge nerd." Otherwise, my time is spent caring for my loving and intelligent-deficit dog Slade and yelling at you for cutting me off in traffic.

What was the hardest part about making the show? was a question I used to get a lot, usually by fans or interviewers curious about us and our filming process. I lied; it’s a hard habit to break once you start. Usually I said something about interviewing people and finding topics, or maybe even chasing down monsters with heavy equipment, but that wasn’t it. Were those things hard? Sure. But they paled in comparison to the frustration I felt when confronted with how much I didn’t know. Even today, with years of hindsight, research, knowledge, and experience, I feel like all I’ve done is scratch the surface of a very, very large iceberg. I know so much about the other side, what lies past the Veneer, and all the players and machinations hidden in the dark, and all it does is remind me how much I don’t comprehend and how much I probably never will.

Red Eyes lies firmly in that camp. He remains just as alien as the first time I saw him and that, more than anything else, makes me fear him. Sure, he was strong. Dangerous, even. But Thorn, Jones, heck, even most of the Little Bookers, I could understand them. I knew why they did what they did, and there’s comfort  in that. However, I never saw anything recognizable in those
