But when Gene purchases a doll out of curiosity, no problem will ever measure up to what Ginger will bring into his life. In The People Of Sleepy Hill, an entire society of strange-looking people, after the depression, are munching on a protein source that’s will make you think twice when going out to eat. A young teenager is caught in a situation where he’s afraid to sleep in the very short piece titled, At Nighttime. What’s not strange for him is the terrors that follow his fears are seen and somehow unseen at the same time. The Snowman is a chill of a terror in the cold region of Alaska in winter, where a now matured man swears he sees a force so frightening he needs to send a letter to the governor to grab immediate attention to warn others that this part of the state is not safe, at least once every ten years. Magic comes to life in Sand Boy, where a young boy’s drawings in the sand are as real as the sand itself, to a desperate woman wanting to bring her dead husband back to life in Zombie Love. Plus, seven other adventures from the dark side. I hope this collection of stories propel you beyond your wildest imaginations.
