Believing Your Own BS | AstraDaemon

TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE by Sarah Pinsker is somewhat similar to Channel Zero: Candle Cove, but singularly focused on one person, Stella. She offers to help a friend from high school clean up his brother's house after the funeral. She randomly stumbles upon a forgotten memory of a creepy TV show, but she thought it was just something she made up for conversation...until the show becomes all too real.

This short serves as a cautionary tale about lying, and losing one's self in a false persona. The author could turn the children's stories into a series of Uncle Bob follow-ups.

As always,
AstraDaemon
