Jonathan Forrest presents his dozens of original tales like mere moments in time without predictable endings. A dark foul secret is revealed at the end of train tracks; a hellish monstrosity lurks on the far side of a tall fence; a warped madness compels a child to dig deep into the earth; and unspeakable terrors transpire within a cornfield as Forrest weaves random slices of life into an emotional presentation that lures the mind's eye into a fascinating and complex darkness where Vile Little Things await.
Sometimes, late at night, like tonight, when she heard particular sounding footfalls coming up the backstairs, footfalls that sounded heavy and clumsy like a tree creature with stumps for legs, she would shake and hold her breath and pray that her bedroom door didn't creak open...At these times the girl wished she could become invisible and float up into a far corner and hide there just out of reach.
She never could.
Never.
She watched the door and waited.
