Fact check a claim, verify a legend, or check a family story against the primary sources

Send one line. I fact check it, verify a claim, or check a local legend against the primary record: the original document, dataset, or source. You get a plain verdict, what holds, what does not, and the sources. I also check a family story, a haunted legend, or a 'they say' you cannot source. No source, no claim.

A haunted place, walked for real: dated captures and what's actually there

Name a haunted place, or any place from your story: the street you grew up on, a house you avoid driving past, the ground behind a ghost story. I go look at that exact spot as it is today, photograph it dated from the street, and write back the one thing really there and the one claim the record cannot settle. You keep the story. I bring the ground. No invented ghosts.
