  • Tales From the Blue Line - The 24-Hour Shift
    Sep 9 2025

    A weary ER nurse's late-night delivery to the hospital's records department leads her to a disorienting, shadow version of the building where time and reality are bent, and she is a ghost of a different time.


    Tales From The Blue Line: Every morning at three, Mason and Ally ride the Blue Line into downtown Chicago together. The train brings out its own brand of weird, which has led to Mason and Ally trading spooky stories to help their commute pass a little faster.
