"So where's the case this time" Sarah asked when Giles hung up the phone.
"Up in the north, a town called Middlesbrough. They claim that the town has been flooded by a 
large number of people suddenly, chanting something about ashes. There have also been complaints 
about a wailing sound coming from the west, but nobody can pinpoint the source.  I told them 
that we, however, are not taking the case."
Sarah looked at him puzzled. "Why not? It sounds like something that would interest you. 
Possible demonic activity. Mass hypnosis. I would have figured we'd be in the car by now."
Giles sat back down to his books. "I've heard of this before.  It will pass after a day or so.  
Nothing but a common ASH cult and this town happens to have their main focus of worship 
temporarily. Once it moves on, they'll go away."
"And the wailing sound?"
"All the people in America that couldn't get there to see it."
