The Card was a fast-paced thriller that took off from the first instant.This short story jumps right into the mystery as three friends find an unknown card in a tarot deck, each blaming the other for the supposed prank. Justin doesn't believe in supernatural forces, so when strange things begin to happen and more ominous cards show up at significant times, he isn't sure what to think. Things soon get worse, and he realizes how terrifying the unknown can be.What does the series of unexplained cards that have appeared out of nowhere mean? And what is going on with his friends? You'll want to keep reading to find out.This was a quick read and a chilling short story with just enough creepiness and mystery. Though it's categorized as horror, there's no gore and it plays out as more of a suspense. I don't typically read gruesome books or horror, but I really enjoyed this well done short story.
