At one point in the game, about five black/phantom goats aproach my house as I'm about to head inside. I quickly tried to open the gate as I thought maybe they were goats that ran away and were looking for a new home (not sure how I'd be able to feed them all though). However, they didn't even use the gate. They passed right through the fence and walked straight across to the other side, passing through the other fence. I'm curious, because it seems right after this is where all the bad things started happening. Do they signify anything? I also noticed that two days, the mail man didn't show up, and the last day he was running.  Everything seemed to have an almost supernatural tone to it, as the crows I took as an omen of death. I thought it might be a deadly plague or virus that was killing everyone. I'm still curious about the phantom goats though!

My theory is that it references the dead farm of one of the brothers (mentioned a few letters after this), but part of me feels it has to do with ghosts of lost loved ones (by the last letter, the ripped one, asking for prayers).
