Halloween, 1918 Jory hums a pleasant tune as he washes his hands. The white tiled walls of the embalming room reverberate his sonorous voice like a concert hall. Behind him, Peter’s body lies prone on a metal table. Still humming to himself, Jory dries his hands and sets to work. He shaves the back of …
We’ve accepted guest posts where people shared their nightmares in the past, but for the giveaway, we’ll have people call in and leave a voicemail about their nightmare.
