Justified?
After beating up a romantic rival, Cory Anderson heads for home, or somewhere.
Afraid of closed in places, he forgoes the elevator in lieu of the stairwell.
However, when he starts down the stairs he hears a loud, angry growl.
Happy Halloween 😎

Cory is angry when his girlfriend dumps him for a total loser and he goes to her flat to teach this guy a lesson. But as he flees the flat, something inhuman is growling below him on the staircase...
This is a short creepy horror where you know what is going to happen and what the twist is, but you enjoy watching it unfold anyway. Cory is a violent thug so when he gets a taste of fear, you have no sympathy for him and hope that he will get what is coming to him. He has two choices-go back up the stairs to beg his ex for help or fight his fears to use the lift to get past this beast.
The author does a good job of expressing all the emotions that come from Cory during his 'adventures' that night-his explosive anger, his violence and his utter terror. The tension is gradually built up as the beast closes in on him and I thought that this was a great wee horror tale. I'd be interested to see what else the author has written and maybe give that a go.

Well worth the quick read, with a brilliant twist at the end.
