About this listen
A short story set in the small, fictional town of Now, Indiana, circa 1940. A man, Troy, returns to his hometown after 10 years when he is diagnosed with cancer in his prime. Distraught, Troy visits a local antique store on Halloween night, hoping to find something to comfort him in his last weeks.
He stumbles across a painting so compelling, he must have it at all cost - he must have it...now! Soon, Troy learns there is something more to the painting than for which he bargained. Something diabolical.

From the writer of Ghost Hunter, Little Women with Big Guns, and Krakenstein vs. Koalatron comes an unforgettable excursion into the depths of the unknown. Loaded end to end with chills, this terrifying narrative is loosely based on accounts of encounters with the legendary Pukwudgie, a cryptozoological "myth" originating in Massachusetts' mysterious Bridgewater Triangle.

Story
For years, the old men had been hanging around the country grocery store whiling away their days playing checkers and dominoes and talking about politics, women, drinking, and life experiences. All that time, the store owner readily approved their presence in the store and went on about his business as if they were not there. Then, one fateful morning in 1956, a new owner bought the business who was not quite as tolerant.

Best book of the year

Short, intense and creepy
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The premise seems, on the surface, to be a modern take on the Portrait of Dorian Grey. It has clear influences from it, but it is definitely it's own story. One I found I rather quite liked. It has good creep-factor and is well narrated. I would recommend for anyone looking for a unique and interesting horror story.
short but pretty good
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The protagonist's medical situation, becomes a bit incredulous and seems designed only to position him where the writer needed. You're already suspending disbelief in a supernatural tale, but that bit just seemed a bit silly.
The narrator did a pretty good job though, and overall I can recommend it for a quick listen. There were some things left a bit unexplained, and overall it's not super memorable, but it's good enough to pass the time on a commute.
I was provided this audiobook free of charge in exchange for my honest review.

This story, although short, is absolutely creepy! The perfect Halloween read when you want to be frightened just enough to give yourself a few nightmares. The ending was unexpected and I will remember this one for a long time. The narrator did a perfect job and added a lot to my enjoyment. I was given the chance to listen to this audiobook by the author/narrator/publisher and chose to review it.

Creepy Little Short
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
This is a rather engaging short story, with a nice job done by the narrator (it's an audiobook), although he sure doesn't sound like he's from Indiana. The plot moves nicely, and while your never likely to poop your pants, the double ending - yes, double - is well worth your time. I'll have to investigate more of this author's works.
