Product Description

Product Description

As a child, Bill believed in ghosts, but put that behind him as he grew up. Sixty now and divorced, with his mother dead and his father dying in a nursing home, he's finding reason to believe in ghosts all over again. But his ghosts aren't the spirits of dead friends and relatives, and they're not the ghosts of people who used to live in his apartment building. His ghosts are something worse. They hate him, and all they want is to reach him either in this world or the next. They're waiting...

Contemporary fantasy with a Twilight Zone feel.

A short ghost story, DRM-free, about 3000 words. This story is included in the author's collection A Souvenir from the War, and Other Stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Take on The Ghost Story 11 Jun 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a single short story, so it is hard to say too much without going spoiler-crazy. But suffice to say it is a taut, well-written story, which manages to do something new and different with the traditional ghost story. No mean feat. It's tone is almost lyrical and sad rather than scary. I look forward to reading a full collection of short fiction from this author - I think it could be something special.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chilling - and I meant it 28 Jun 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
The word chilling is often over-used in horror reviews but here it fits perfectly. This is a blood-runs-cold story and my favourite out of this author's output to date that conjures up one of the most disturbing ideas about our final days and the afterlife that might well follow that I have read. Highly, highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Horror Story Got Me Thinking 13 Mar 2012
By Johanna - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the most thought-provoking horror short story that I've ever read. It really got me pondering death, life, and the roads not taken. The imagery in the book is quite haunting. I know this may sound strange, but this horror story was strangely life-affirming (as in better get out there and grab life by the horns) for me. It also had me reflecting on my own life (I'm 43 and hoping there will be many more years to come). . .at times, the book made me feel sad and then I felt spurred to action (or else!). I really enjoyed this read!
