Beware the Mooseman

Earlier today, I’ve checked my mailbox and found a peculiar letter in there. Seems like someone sent me the letter by accident as the letter refers to someone named Alexander Manning, not me. Also, this letter contains some disturbing content in mirrored text. I’m not sure whether this is a serious message or a sick prank.

(I am well aware that it’s not the best idea to share this here, but what’s the worst that could happen… especially as it appears that the sender is from Alaska, far - far away from me. I am considering taking this to the cops later.)

I did not receive any tapes along with the letter, so I’m going to take a guess that there was never a tape, or it went somewhere else.

I did receive photos along with the letter. One of them was that of a man wearing a makeshift moose suit. The rest, yeah, I don’t think I should share them here.

So, in case this is a real thing, please be careful out there. If by any chance you know anyone from that region of Alaska, make sure to contact them to make sure they're safe.
