Next Door Nightmare

THE NEIGHBOR by Dean Koontz is a creepy prequel to the novel THE CITY, which I haven't read. However, this short story works just fine as a stand-alone. Narrated by a man reflecting on a horrifying childhood memory, readers will understand how this becomes a life-changing experience for both brother and sister.

I expected them to find a vampire, but what they discover is much worse.

As always,

  1. Alright, I haven't read Koontz in like forever, but this convinced me to pick this short up.
