Toby is on the run. He's just made the biggest mistake of his life. His step-father is a deputy sheriff so they won't even care why he did it. It will be his word against his step-father's, and his will lose.
The young fugitive escapes to the only safe place he can think of. He can't stay there forever, but he can buy enough time to plan his next step.
The big house was supposed to be empty. Those people weren't supposed to be there. And she wasn't supposed to be in the basement.
He's faced with another choice, one that may lead to a mistake even greater than the last.
"In The Basement" is a SHORT story for fans of horror and supernatural thrillers.
