Bad Influence
Have you ever wondered why people do bad things?
One man's desire to find out why turns into an obsession after his wife and unborn child are killed in a drive-by shooting. What Josh discovers defies all logic and reason. But now that he knows the truth, is he about to become the next victim of a random act of violence?
THE SOURCE by W.C. Jones is one of the best horror stories I've ever read! This novella has all the necessary elements for quality entertainment: drama, mystery, suspense and a touch of the supernatural. This is the kind of story I'd expect to see on a show such as Tales of the Crypt.
I love the originality of "the source," and, while Josh reflects on the details of his personal nightmare, I remained captivated from beginning to end. While the outcome is a bit predictable, the very ending is a great touch. I would love to see a longer story based on this one. Perhaps the author could write a story centered around Charlie.
I'm recommending this one to all horror fans as a must-read.
As always,
AstraDaemon
