The Camera - A Short Story

Mike was excited. He had just purchased the most valuable tool in his hunting arsenal. A wireless hunting cam. And as he looked at the first images from his prime spot in the woods, something wasn't right. What he saw did not make sense, and he would have to go out there to see what was in the lens of The Camera.

Now That Ending Was Unexpected

What would you do if your game camera photographed a monster?

Out of all possible alternatives, the protagonist decides to wait an additional night and decides to try and hunt it down with a very unpredictable ending.

The story raises some unanswered questions but there are realistic limitations to a short story. If the reader is willing to just let the author tell his tale, the result is a rewarding and somewhat chilling story.

😨😰😱 SHORT BUT EFFECTIVE.

MIKE wakes up early with a headache.
He lights a cigarette, smokes it and throws it away.

He stands up.
It’s time to look at the camera...

------------

A short horror story that reads very quickly.

The end is unexpected and successful.
An author to discover.

Well I didn't see that coming in this short read it definitely sends a chill down your spin, this could have been made a longer book with a bit more suspense hence only four stars
