Dear Abby,
Brooklyn is haunted. Several events occurred on the night of the 27th and 28th that confirmed this; as per the photo which clearly reveals high levels of supernatural activity surrounding us on the stoop outside of the apartment we occupied. The presence of evil-doing spirits....first evident after the hour of 3 A.M. when Jarom was discovered asleep on the couch with strange symbols etched into his arm and forehead. With messages very foreign to the human vernacular. “irol3” ???? Mysterious indeed. Later that night, as we decided to leave the apartment and walk to a park a few blocks away, we experienced a “ghost leeching;” a well-known haunting that involves a spirit or spirits that "leeches" on to a group and follows them for a while despite leaving the haunted ground. It's the only way to explain why all of Brooklyn's residents kept giving us stare downs on our way to the park. I saw no other justifiable reason for the stare downs as i felt we blended in perfectly there. When we finally reached the park Daisy was possesed and immediately began jumping about, biting at sticks; parading herself madly and violently while lunging into the air sporadically. Not to mention the two police cars that were circling the lawn. It wasn't that they were there it was that.... they left! NEVER in Salt Lake had we EVER been watched by the police and then left to our own devices without questioning, accusations or at least a slap on the hand. Surely something evil was afoot. On our way back Daisy was still clearly possessed and was scaring the people we passed. Groups quickly cleared paths for her bearing most frightened expressions. From out of nowhere a man seemed to magically fall from a tree and stumble past Daisy hurriedly. As the night went on, Josh too began to transform; rocking back and forth, drifting off to sleep then randomly jerking awake and engaging himself socially. Often, out of nowhere, a change in his voice and echoing of the same phrase mechanically. “Shut uuuuup Kim.” The spirits seemed to grow violently charged and disruptive. John crashed to the ground repeatedly as if something stole the chair out from under him. He crashed to the ground while standing. Couch pillows flew about the house. Cans, fruits, and a fork or two ricocheted from the ceiling fan continuously. And the next morning, we all awoke to a changed John. Half of his mustache had been removed and many indiscernible marks drawn upon his skin. Brooklyn, most definitely, is haunted when Loom is present. People should know about this which is why I decided to send this letter. Also, we are planning on returning to Brooklyn in the fall. What should I do?
Sincerely,
Kim Loom

Dear Kim Loom,
First of all, I have spoken with the rest of your band and must inform you directly....you are the ONLY member who believes Brooklyn to be haunted. After reviewing with them the events of your letter, I can clearly see where you were misled. To begin, the photograph. Artsy. That is all that it is. Secondly, that thing about Jarom and strange symbols? Years of touring and you're still not used to this? The writing which covered his face can be traced back to a familiar ritual practiced among many, including Ethan, your gracious host. Writing on the first person to pass out with a sharpie is NOT uncommon and is exactly what happened to Jarom. The word “irol3” can also be explained. John Finnegan, in an attempt to spell “i rule,” erred and wrote irol3 due to his current state. And the rest is clearly not a ghost either.... people in Brooklyn looked at a group of white kids strangely while walking around at night? Are you kidding me?! Of course they would look at you strangely. They're the ones who should be worried about ghosts. I mean one or two white kids walking around is usual but eight? Please.... Also the man suddenly falling from a tree. Isn't there a chance he was trying to avoid Daisy and that is all? Indeed. According to Jarom, the stranger merely leaped out of the way and from where you were standing you I guess it looked like he fell from above. To that I can only say, shouldn't have been standing there. The rest too, is obvious. Josh argues that you were quick to accuse. His “rocking back and forth” is not unnatural for him considering how much partying had already been underway. Him telling you to “shut uuuuuup Kim” at random is also not surprising considering his state.... Shit Kim he loves to give you a hard time and he was trashed! Cushions, forks, cans, etc flying about? According to your bands drunken remembrances, Ethan's apartment had a ceiling fan. You were attempting to sleep on the couch and in mid-slumber among total chaos you misinterpreted their “havoc” as ghostly violence. Harmless party aggression among hyperactive boys/men/what have you. And again I must say Kim considering your YEARS of touring I am very suprised at you... I will not share your letter with Brooklyn or talk you out of returning. I merely suggest that you look not for that which is not there. And do not try to sleep again among an ongoing party for there will always be room for misinterpretations.
Sincerely,
Abby
P.S. John's mustache was shaved due to a bet between he and Ethan. He was written on with sharpie as sweet revenge from Jarom for the night previous.
P.P.S. Do not contact me again with such silliness.
