INCIDENT 010: THE FIREWORK DELAY

STATUS: RECOVEREDEVIDENCE: home video, fire department report

The camera showed each firework bursting before we lit the fuse.

The last preview showed the roof on fire while everyone was still laughing below.

Recovered notes

The family stopped the display after noticing the delay, but the predicted roof fire began anyway from an electrical fault on the opposite side of the house. Investigators could not explain why the footage contained the blaze before any smoke was visible in reality.

The record remains in the archive because it shares at least one recurring marker with later incidents: an extra room, a duplicated person, a timestamp that precedes its cause, or a numbered door that should not exist.

ARCHIVE WARNING / Some timestamps in this section predate the public site. They are presented as part of the fictional 31 Doors experience.
