“If you leave a door half open, soon you’ll hear the whispers spoken.
If you play outside alone, soon you won’t be going home.
If your window’s left unlatched, you’ll hear him tapping at the glass.
If you’re lonely, sad, and blue, the Whisper Man will come for you.”
Alex North, The Whisper Man

“Courage is not the absence of fear, Pete knew. Courage requires fear.”
Alex North, The Whisper Man

“The devil finds work for idle hands. Bad thoughts find empty heads.”
Alex North, The Whisper Man
