I haven’t read many short story collections. ![]() Oh, let’s explore this dusty, creepy abandoned town on the premise of finding help for a boy we hit with our car after he stumbled from the corn field stabbed.

I tried to re-watch Children of the Corn the other day, but my boyfriend lost patience with it. (a segment in Cat’s Eye), The Graveyard Shift and an obscure story of moody kids called ‘Children of the Corn’. There’s ‘Night Surf’ (related to The Stand), ‘The Lawnmower Man’, Quitters, Inc. This is a collection of 20 short stories, many of which were adapted to the screen in the 80s and 90s. When I do buy, 99% of the time it’s as a gift for one of my little buddies. I’m not a re-reader and the library feeds my hunger. Bought a copy for myself at one of the best places on Earth, Strand.

I picked it back up the other day when I was stumped on a uh… work pickle: Are intestines a strong enough to hang someone by or would they stretch? snap? tear? My guess is not strong enough. ![]() I have no idea why it took me more than a year to finish but it did. You get one twisted tale after the next. It’s great horror. Stephen King’s Night Shift has all the makings of a page-turner. ![]()
