The Butcher Paper one was a punch to the gut!

Steve Rasnic Tem has a singular talent for writing 1-paragraph-or-less stories that will make your guts twist inside you.

I will never forget the first time I read "2:00pm; The Real Estate Agent Arrives". These are definitely in that same vein.

Halloween Street is a strange place, but I liked the ambiance.

Loved this so much it got me back on the forum after many years perfecting my lurk.

Can someone tell me if Alasdair is still sharing the list of who is in the Halloween parade, and if so, where?

Welcome back! I think the parade info was shared on Patreon.

All cat stories start with this statement: “My mother, who was the first cat, told me this...”
