Too Much Horror Fiction: You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory

In addition to bookstores, it actually made going to a supermarket or pharmacy fun... there was always a chance to find some little gem (I bought Rex Miller's SLOB in a Rite Aide drugstore - my how times have changed.) Now there's just a whole lot of NUTHIN' out there.

The creepy tree reminds me of character called Leshiy from Russian folklore.

And what a fine title for a horror story, to boot: Water Baby. ......Water Baby.; April 28, 2011 at 2:48 AM
