Reveal Thy Self

Susie Monroe hides in an old house with her brother, Billy. Billy is a shadow man who wears many faces. But none of them are his.

PUT ON A HAPPY FACE by Terry M. West is a chilling short story, featuring a very creative twist on a popular sub-genre. (Trying to avoid spoilers.) The horror within is low-key, yet extremely sinister. However, the bond between Susie and her big brother Billy is touching, nonetheless. With the exception of one scene, events are retold through Susie's POV, which creates the perfect build-up of suspense.

As always,
