Nature Is Scary | AstraDaemon

Tommy Summers is an aspiring author in Lake Worth, Texas. As he searches for inspiration one snowy winter morning, Stan Whitley, a neighbor and ill-tempered hermit, pounds desperately at Tommy's door. It seems that Stan has caught something very peculiar in a bear trap, and before Tommy knows it, he is dealing with a demonic creature of legend!

THE HERMIT'S CREEPY PET by Terry M. West is a great short story and a perfect example of the author's dark humor. The creature is one I haven't heard of before, so I googled it, and apparently this is a well-known cryptid. The ending is fantastic, but I can't help wondering if West might be confessing to something...

I also recommend THE DEVIL'S LIST by Terry M. West.

As always,
