THE GHOST OF HOOKER ALLEY
Shingles – 1
by Robert Bevan
Sarah and Tommy have the same kinds of problems as most kids: Homework, bullies, Dad missing work because Mom ran off to fuck the postman. That sort of thing. But they’re not going to take their problems lying down.
After a quick bus ride into the shady side of town to buy a gun, they think their problems are all but solved. That is, until a creepy weirdo follows them into an narrow alleyway. But they aren’t the only ones there. What they discover will make you soil your pants in terror. It will make your skin crawl. It might even give you… Shingles.
