This Place Is Best Shunned by David Erik Nelson

dark fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot

4.5

Really good short story. Could picture everything and it was creepy and thought-provoking and all that good stuff. Characters were neat and pretty well-explained for how little space the author had to explain them, and the kicker was good.

Love where the title is coming from and all the stuff author added to the world here. Ending is great.
