Kenopsia

N. the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that's usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet:\n A school hallway in the evening, an unlit office on a weekend, vacant fairgrounds.\n An emotional afterimage that makes it seem not just empty but hyper-empty, with a total population in the negative, who are so conspicuously absent they glow like neon signs.\n \n -------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n It was a day like many when the alarming radio messages of the town blared alive, advising all residence to barricade themselves in their house away from unknown danger.\n \n But no new directives were given.\n \n And food is lacking.
