"Stop being creepy, Franky.""Welcome to Moon Hill", a collection of 21 short tales and oddities, all residing in the small Pennsylvania town of Moon Hill. Homey and inviting, this town achieves a warm glow most prevalent in the late fall like Connecticut's Oxrun Station. And like Charles L. Grant's Est. town, Moon Hill has it's fair share of darkness, but what is a picturesque small town with out some shadows. There are not just terrors to be found here, there are also some curios and youthful lamentations, even a pumpkin ale recipe. Treat yourself to a tour of the streets, kick around some multi-color leaves, have a bottle of home brewed craft beer, just don't bank on staying long because the shadows lengthen as the sun goes down.Quite an enjoyable read. The tales that stuck with me the most, making me ache for the late October season are:"Struck by Golden Lightning""Just Once More, Little Sister""The Plumber"&"From Your Body They Rise"I look forward to more musings from the town of Moon Hill.P.S. Mr. Rapino, there are too few stories out there that make me long for a Charles L. Grant yarn, thanks for these.
