"Highway 97" is a short story by Caitlin R. Kiernan that features their recurring character Dancy Flammarion, the teenage albino monster-hunter. It was published by Subterranean Press in 2006 as a chapbook accompanying Kiernan's collection Alabaster; it was later included in an expanded edition of Alabaster published by Dark Horse Books in 2014.
"Highway 97" takes place just before the events of "Bainbridge," and in fact was the original opening scene of that story, which Kiernan says they "cut for some reason entirely lost to me now."Alabaster, "Highway 97: Author's Note," Caitlin R. Kiernan (Subterranean Press, 2020).
The story describes Dancy walking toward Bainbridge, Georgia, on a mission from her angel. She is accompanied for a time by a talking dog.
