The Collectors: A Short Story

Eva can't deny the truth forever.

Through a rotted out hole in the ceiling of Eva's bathroom lurks a creature with gray skin and swollen limbs. It watches her every move.

Each year as the hole has gotten bigger, it's easier for the creature to emerge. It's been working on Eva for a while now, helping her avoid the hole, encouraging her to deny it even exists.

What starts out as a difficult home improvement project turns into a terror that Eva won't be able to ignore. She thinks the creature is harmless, a figment of her imagination.

Eva is wrong. The nightmare is about to begin.
