Hey, there.
Since you're kind enough to follow me, I'm including an entire short story for you in this message. This is a Halloween story and a bit on the dark side, though you might chuckle, too. Most of my stuff is sci-fi/fantasy humor.
Please check out others at my profile and of course I'd love to hear your comments on this story! - Jay
Blending In - A Halloween Tale
The Wilson's had settled in to watch a movie, assuming that they'd seen the last of this year's trick-or-treaters, when the door bell rang once again.
Judy jumped up and grabbed the bag of goodies. "Some lucky kids are going to get a boat load of Snickers," she shouted to her husband over her shoulder.
Opening the door, she found a lone little boy, head down, squirming in place. He was dressed in an obviously hand-me-down Dracula costume - tattered, patched and dusty. She instinctively stepped forward to comfort him. A quick glance around left her even more worried.
"Honey, what are you doing out here alone? Where's your mommy?"
"In the grave these 500 years," he said in a husky voice that froze Judy's blood. "And I think ye'll be joinin' her."
And he lept for her throat.
Hi, there! Thank you for following me. I hope you have a good day! :)
Thanks so much for following!
Thanks for the follow!!
@jcutts okay thank you.
Come see my stories if you like humorous sci-fi or fantasy. They've been compared to the writings of Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Jasper Fforde. Uhm, even Edgar Allen Poe but I think that was a little off and a little creepy.
Thank you so much for the follow, Jay. Good luck with the writing!
