A Gap Through Midnight

Cracks in the Sky

by Ryan Notch

In this terrifying tale of urban horror...

The boys play the same game every night. A treasure hunt through the dark and deserted urban streets of their neighborhood. Guided by satellite signals and internet clues towards imagined treasures. Each trip they find new short cuts, new paths through the dark, ever more invisible by daylight. Until one night they find a path that shouldn't exist, to a place between here and there. A place where the world twists itself into knots of agony, and horror abounds.

About the author

Ryan Notch lives in Centralia, Pennsylvania, a town evacuated by the Federal government due to a coal mine fire burning beneath it since 1962. The only town in America ever to have its zip code revoked. During the day he wanders the empty streets and houses as if in a dream, looking for something he lost but can't remember where or what it was. At night he writes his horror stories by lying down next to a burning fissure along main street and placing his ear to the ground, transcribing what he hears coming up from below.

This wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, but it was still a pretty good read. I'll definitely be thinking of this the next time I go geocaching.
