I knew there were would be frightful stories but this is a different form than what I was expecting. A story so blatant with its allegory, yet so touching when told behind the eyes of a damaged little boy.
One line struck a chord in particular: You get an astronaut's life whether you want it or not. Leave it all behind for a world you know nothing about. That's just the deal.

Soooo dark.
Such a fascinating perspective that I would have never considered: what would it be like to have Dr. Van Helsing as your father in a world where the existence of vampires is uncertain?

YOU WILL HEAR THE LOCUSTS SING
At first I totally didn’t care about this short story because creature features are just not my thing….
…..oh my…..
As soon as we received vivid description of this human sized bug excreting an acid-like substance upon his dying father and then going and eating the sludge that came from his fathers melting insides….I was actually so shocked I could not put it down. SCARY
