The Pennsylvania mine has collapsed, trapping 3 teams of 2 dozen men and women inside. A total of 36 people have been trapped and are in need of rescue!
It seems some footage, albeit some hazy footage, has surfaced showing some people breaking into one of the access ways and entering the mine. A few hours later, they can be seen running out with a horde of bats and a large explosion at the entrance before the footage freezes up.
Whoever has any information on this please call the tip line at (555) 484-8084
We need to catch the perpetrators for not only trapping those teams, but more importantly, severing the Pennsylvania Silver trade!

Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.
