The scruffy man on the loudspeaker is getting on Aster's dang nerves, because everything he's saying about the monsters in the woods is wrong.
He's been circulating at this protest, talking to everyone he knows and waving in everyone he doesn't know who'll hear him, telling them everything he and Dan and Lady have learned about the monsters in the woods - they're veiled, corpselike women moving like dancers, confined to the mist, but it's possible nighttime gives them freedom to come all the way into town, why else would the sheriff be so intent on maintaining this curfew?
Too bad he's overshouted by the guy with the loudspeaker, who is spreading much more effectively his word that the woods are full of aliens. Nine foot tall greys thin enough to be mistaken for trees, and knee-high goblins that hide under his porch, break into people's garbage.
"So they're raccoons he saw a few cups deep?" Aster grumbles. "He's not right. I've seen them. They're -" he looks distracted, as the guy yells more about the Hollywood Illuminati agenda thinning the veil between worlds to let the extraterrestrials in. "I'm about to steal that megaphone."
