More Murmurs In The Night

By Les Pobjie

Where does terror begin?

A clothesline at night, warm bath, doctor’s waiting room, antique bed, peaceful office, hospital bed, cab in a storm?

But wait... a figure among the washing, unexpected noise downstairs, creepy doctor, a bed growing bigger, workers suddenly becoming agitated, surprise superpower, an ever-smiling driver, grin, grin, grin.

From all these and more Les Pobjie’s fertile imagination turns the everyday world into a frightening one where few would want to live – or die.
