The Goldilocks Effect (BEING REWORKED as 'This Bed is Just Right')

Prologue: Your name is Daniella ‘Dandy’ Richards, and thanks to a random stroke of luck and old folk superstition, you now have the land to start the farm you’ve always dreamed of. Mr. Bradford, the previous landowner sold it to you for practically nothing, on account of some sort of ‘curse’ scaring the hunters off his lease. But curse or no curse, you’re willing to take the risk.And so, twelve thousand dollars later you find yourself driving to your new home, your meager possessions in tow.Mr. Bradford said the old lodge there was in ruins by now, but as you explore your new property you begin to realize that the house seems to be in surprisingly good repair, and a lot cleaner than you expected. Tired from the drive, you chalk it up to the hunters using it during their stays and drift off into an uneasy sleep in the downstairs bedroom.But when you wake the next morning, you’re not alone.Should have thought twice before sleeping in someone’s bed, Goldilocks.
