I have read this story before in the Stories section. But I'm glad you posted it here as an example of the stories in the book. If all of the stories are as good as this one, they will be an enjoyable read. I think the small synopsis of each one is very good. Giving the reader a good idea of what the story might be about before reading.
Everyone tells me they really like my story books. Unfortunately, they aren't selling.

Looks like a winner, Billy. Love some of the story tag-lines...part Twilight Zone and part Night Gallery.

Holy Toledo in Kansas!
A harvest of horror with just the right spine-tingling touches: Crowbar, Toothless, and Meathook who has a hankering for tongue sandwiches!
Something In the Attic (Short Story) - 1/17/2018 2:40:24 AM
I could sense Norma wasn't normal--no pun intended, from the circumstances you described--especially a 13-year-old's very childlike demeanor. The ending caught me by surprise, and I wonder what is in store for Norma.

Another 'gem', Billy, and just in time for the Eve of All Saints. Great work, as usual.

Like Eva, I was surprised, but I suspected what was going to happen when the boys decided to dig.
Although filled with all kinds of superstitious Halloween artifacts, the story of two clueless teenagers nothing but stupidity on their minds did not have any frightening quality about it. Maybe I'm just too jaded from watching the zombie TV shows where everyone dies.

The ending took me by surprise, and I enjoyed the journey you took me on to get there!

Another great tale by a modern master. Loved that ending.
The Taxidermist (Short Story) - 5/4/2017 2:02:06 AM
Another horrific story I've enjoyed immensely!
Jumper (Short Story) - 5/2/2017 5:26:31 AM
You certainly have a great imagination. The story seems a bit dated with "rummies" by the bridge… But maybe not.

Another excellent story with a twist I didn't see coming! One minor thing--I noticed a variation in the spelling of Kramer vs. Cramer.

How perverse am I to be laughing as hard as I am--but not all the way to the bank!
The Lord of Darkness (Short Story) - 4/8/2017 7:54:57 AM
Out a little bit more than that…
A good one. Much enjoyed.

Well, I wonder what dish Officer Harriman will become. No longer serving members of the community, he'll be served to them.

Payback can be a "bitch" and she certainly was! Unhinged, indeed! I literally enjoyed your story.
Something In the Well (Short Story) - 3/9/2016 3:12:44 AM
I see where this is going. I enjoyed the read which wrapped my head around the details. No good deed goes unpunished from the ripple effect of repercussions.

I surmised things would go "horribly" wrong when Tammy got off at the bus stop, and became certain of it when you introduced Dr. Victor Frank. However, you led me to believe the clinic had been attacked by pro-lifers until you got me at the end!

Even though Charlie didn't feel a thing due to his severed spinal chord and stroke--what a way to die! You drew me into your writer's web quite easily.
Something In the House (Short Story) - 9/20/2015 2:00:18 AM
I only wish Gary had lived to retell this story in first person narrative. I could smell the rottenness from your vivid descriptions. I thoroughly enjoyed the clever twist in your story, and the character's twist of fate.
Surprise! Surprise! (Short Story) - 7/30/2013 5:53:01 PM
A shocker of an 'ending' (pun intended) as hilarious as it was profane...loved it! A true Billy Wells classic in O.Henry style.
Surprise! Surprise! (Short Story) - 7/15/2013 9:57:41 AM
Scary and chilling tale; very well penned, Billy!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Texas, Karen Lynn. :D

I enjoyed this write for the little ones on all hallows eve

There is nothing more horrifying than not being able to provide a little tricksters with something bad for their teeth but good for their disposition.
I always gave them fresh fruit. That really scared them away.

Wow....an awsome write.
Enola (Poetry) - 10/10/2011 3:27:20 PM
This time around, the poem is here. Don't know what happened the last time I tried to read it.
This one is excellent, with a well-told story and skillful phrases. So tragic, but I liked it from beginning to end!

You tell it well, Billy,
in quiet style but with fine underlying power.
And the title's so apt.
