Patience Waits for a SparkĀ is inspired by the true history of Comet Lodge Cemetery, a forgotten place right here in Seattle. For decades, the land was tended sporadically by individuals rather than looked after by local government, as there was much confusion whether this land was property of King County or Seattle. Because of this bureaucratic chaos, developers in the '80s were able to build houses on top of Comet Lodge Cemetery, moving or destroying many burial plots and headstones in the process. InĀ Patience Waits for a Spark, three ghosts band together to exact revenge on one of these housing developers.
