Once upon a time, there was a team of software developers who stumbled upon a mysterious methodology known as Scrum. At first, they were fascinated by its promises of increased productivity and streamlined processes.

However, as they delved deeper into Scrum, strange things began to happen. They would gather for their daily "stand-up" meetings, only to find that some team members were inexplicably absent, despite having been present the day before.

During their "sprint" sessions, they would hear faint whispers and footsteps coming from empty corners of the room. Their carefully planned "backlogs" would mysteriously disappear, only to reappear in altered forms, as if someone - or something - was tinkering with them.

Despite their growing unease, the team pressed on with Scrum, unable to resist its tantalizing promises of efficiency and success. But as their projects grew more complex, they found themselves increasingly overwhelmed by the unseen forces that seemed to be lurking within the Scrum framework.

Eventually, the team disbanded, driven mad by the creeping dread and paranoia that had consumed them. And to this day, there are whispers that Scrum still haunts the halls of software development, waiting to ensnare unsuspecting teams in its web of terror and chaos.
