Hi, this is Atari! We are the Paranomaly Hotline (like paranormal and anomaly, cool right?!?), we help people when they deal with places or creatures (or even people) that aren't exactly...normal, for lack of a better vocabulary. There's several of us, but we're the main ones who'll be taking calls!
Have a good day, and I hope you guys have no need to call us!
(Oh, our sign offs! Here they are below!)
📝 -Atari (it/they/mem/crys, tolerates she/her)
💫 -Rune (hex/mystic/xey/they)
🔅 -Moss (he/her)
💠 -Whelan (she/her or they/them)
🍀 -Clover (he/him)
🎀 -Milo (he/him)
🎈 -Piper (she/he/they/it)
✈️ -Ev (he/it/ball/nine) [mostly a bit, wont really appear in the story]
I'm still gonna keep posting the actual project on my main (@s0lar-ch3ri), but if you wanted to talk to the characters or something, well, here!
If you wanted to see updates about this little story project, just follow the #Paranormal Callings (And How We Got You Out) on my main. Out of characters, I use it/neos/he/any! Uh, yeah bye bye lol
2026 EDIT: WANNA KNOW A BIT MORE ON THESE GUYS' DEALS? I HAVE A POST EXPLAINING THEM (AS WELL AS SHARING THE NEW TAG, THE ONE ABOVE IS NOW ARCHIVAL.) NEW TAG IS "#calls & cryptids".
oh also any ooc things are gonna be tagged "#paranomal shutdown"
for my reblogs of the written out chapters, check "#written entity handling" [2026 UPDATE: ARCHIVAL TAG, NO LONGER IN USE.]
for my reblogs of the drawn out chapters, check "#drawn entity handling" [2026 UPDATE: FOR SNIPPETS ONLY, NO COMPLETE CHAPTERS UNTIL FUTURE NOTICE.]
the story will always be tagged "#Paranormal Callings (And How We Got You Out)"
because it is a hastel to tag all the posts, any non-actual story (like random office things or whatever) are gonna just be tagged "#backstage of the hotline"
if i give a lil detail about the hotline or whatever, itll go under #fun ph factoids
new characters coming as i work on this lol (maybe tags too idrk)
so fun thing, asks with little things can be for any fandom and shit, and theyll have their own side plotline things (not canon to the main story, but canon somewhere) so yeah!
finished side story things will get put in the pinned to look thro later :3
#cat-otic demons - An anon called in, talking about a peculiar demon who's been talking to their cat, Toothpaste.
#wooded elks - An anon called in about a mysterious elk who had been watching them in the woods.

#Cryptids And Callings: Off-Site Backtalk - A tag to be able to filter out any posts specifically from the world of my D&D Campaign!

is the nickname "a shortened version of their actual name", like is that it? or is it too revealing to say the nickname? just wanna make this not super confusing
Not really sure, I guess I can list a couple of other instances.
-he seems to haggle a lot,
-he talks a bit weird, it feels like you are talking to some salesman who is selling you a poor product but doesn’t want you to sue them so they tell the truth, but like make it seem safe if that makes sense
- saw him shake hands with someone and flinch away from the shake like he got hurt.
-he asks for peoples names a lot, I hear him ask all the time. The idiot seems to go by a nickname.
First of all, I tackled him because I thought he was a ghost possesing our school mascot. And it’s a mistake anyone would have made.
I mean some classic shit like creepy dolls, old books, some candles with weird ass scents like fairy shit (probably not really, but like the vibe of them.) I went in to looks at these old weapons they had and I asked him about some sword, and I was jokingly like “you think it was cursed” and he just looked at me, it gave me the chills.
It’s been around for ten years. I don’t know if it had appeared out of nowhere. I think weirdo went to our highschool but I’m not sure. -🗡️
could you provide the stores name or is it too personal?
