Paulie

By M.A. Myers

After the death of her husband's grandparents, Alice and her family inherit a century old farmhouse located on the outskirts of Pittsburg, New Hampshire. With the house paid off, and with plenty of room for her family to grow, it quickly outshines their small overpriced apartment in Brooklyn, New York. Alice thinks their new home is ideal, but unnervingly isolated. What Alice doesn't know is that an unknown terror has risen just over the Canadian border, and the latest town to be overtaken by chaos and a nameless horror is only 30 miles away.

Where to begin? I'm originally from Claremont, New Hampshire. And after having moved more times than I care to remember, I finally found myself in North Carolina where I was fortunate enough to find my wife. Or did she find me? I've always had an interest in writing. (Funny coming from someone who couldn't stand the idea of reading a book as a child). How I come up with my stories varies. They could come from a dream, a life experience, a random thought, or even a song I was listening to at the time. If pertaining to the genre, well that varies from story to story. (I know what you're thinking). "Story to story? But you only have one." And that is true. But no worries, I have more coming soon. My interests include writing (of course), listening to music, reading, and my utmost favorite: spending time with my wife and little one.

A cold October night gust whistled as it blew over a solitary farm house on the outskirts of Pittsburg, New Hampshire. The house creaked and groaned from the light push of the elements, causing Alice to shift uncomfortably as she focused on making dinner. Having moved up here from New York, she was used to the hustle and bustle of a city that several million people called home; not the near constant silence that living in near solitude could bring. The farm house, once belonging to her husband's grandparents, had willed him the property after passing away a year ago. Since the house had been paid off years ago, and with plenty of room to raise a family in, they immediately moved out of their small overpriced apartment. Although the house needed some fixing up, and the quiet was unbearable at times, she was glad that she let Dennis talk her into moving here. The kitchen was a good size, much larger than the kitchen they had back in their apartment in Brooklyn. With newly installed marble countertops and steel appliances, it had become her dream kitchen. She still could not get over the fact that their new home sat on twenty acres of land. Although it was peaceful and quiet here most times, it did get unsettling as the nearest neighbor was a quarter
