Fading Flowers

Each story, as I perceive it, is a tale not so much of terror but of the unknown. Weird things happen to ordinary people and the unexpected, frightening occurrences in each tale uncovers the possibility that none of us is immune to the horror that resides within our so-called mundane lives. Some of the tales, like FADING FLOWERS, should appeal to older folks who either live alone or within the confines of senior facilities. Night terrors do not happen only in childhood but accompany us into every phase of our lives. No longer is the terror confined to the creature who lurks beneath our beds in the darkness of night nor in the closet that slides open on creaking hinges. The danger might be awaiting us the next time we step into an elevator as it asks, GOING DOWN?
