Damn this is some creepy Lovecraftian shit. Alas, like many short stories, I feel like it could have been fleshed out a bit more towards the end (clocking in at only 30ish pages..!) and still remained a tasty short story. That being said! Would totally recommend it to anyone who wants a spooky read on a short train/bus trip.
