Always Check The Packing Slip | AstraDaemon

MANDY by C.Y. Stewart is a short story centered on a couple who keep pranking each other with a mannequin, but the jokes are beginning to result in bodily harm. As the malicious acts begin to involve the neighborhood, they finally realize the running joke has gone too far. Halloween turns into a rather brutal evening for the husband and wife.

While the ending is slightly predictable, the suspense is well-written.

As always,
AstraDaemon
