The Grownup


"Do you believe in evil spirits?" ~ pg. 24 

Hand jobs. Haunted house. Four deaths. Threats. A disturbing stepson. A cat with a cutoff tail. A faux aura interpreter.

Got your attention? I thought so. These are the subjects of Gillian Flynn's (author of Gone Girl) new short story, The Grownup. It is the author's homage to the classic ghost story. The Grownup first appeared in George R. R. Martin's Rogues anthology as What Do You Do? I like Flynn's standalone better. My only gripe is I wish it were a full length novel. I am left with so many questions!

Do you like ghost stories too? Yes? Then read it!
