Horror story


from the ABC set Short Stories

The light was dim. I had dozed off whilst reading my latest horror novel, but as I shifted myself on the sofa looking for a more comfortable position, the book fell over. Caught between the cushion and the floor and opened half way through, I picked it up, hoping that it might have been the last page I’d read - I had forgotten to mark it. The page had no number and the words THE END was scrawled across the two open pages.
The light went off!
