Day 912

The ghosts won't stay still anymore, they are all on the move. Normally they stick to whatever place lingers strongest in their memory and in some cases are utterly incapable of doing much more than standing still in their spot. Recently even they are leaving their self-designated areas.

To the common person this mass migration of the restless dead is utterly inconsequential, after all the vast majority of therm are either near impossible to see or incapable of changing from the orb state. A living human may experience the occasional paranormal-esque event such as electrical malfunctions and blood stains in impossible places but otherwise the dead won't leave much of a physical trace.

The appropriate authorities are tracking the migration who seem to be heading towards the ocean. Infrared cameras have pinpointed their trail merging from their individual global routes into one large stream. Leading experts in souls and the dead believe that they will head to one of two places renowned for their other-worldly qualities.

The first predicted area is the Bermuda Triangle which is believed to be a central hub for the dead and as such their conglomeration attracts more fatalities and disappearances than any other established haunting ground. Though it has often been suspected that the ghostly attractions are based on high electromagnetism in the area, no set theory has been agreed on.

The second predicted place is over 8,000 miles away but as the mass migration is coalescing somewhere between the two, it could go either way. The Mariana Trench is often seen as the ultimate end point within the ocean, within the world as some would say. A veritable graveyard over 1,000 feet long and barely over 40 feet wide - the greatest possible depth. The leading theory behind this as the possible end goal of the migration is the sheer amount of decay and detritus, having accumulated over potentially millions of years, and now having finally tipped the scale to something that our dead crave.

Of course these are only theories and though the dead still move they are continually being monitored as best as we can. Technology doesn't always work around the dead so for what we claim know they have already reached their destination and we are just observing the stragglers. After all, the dead have always outnumbered the living, now more than ever.
