The Stairs was my favorite. I wished I'd written it. I love the story within the story. Well done, Tom.

Thank you very much sir!

^^^Very cool indeed, sir. Thoroughly enjoyed the subtle nostalgia of it too.

@Otis, yeah, I thought your story was obviously the funnest, how can a supernatural mad professor mystery not be, but it definitely needed a good short story length to work. Can't put that much plot in such a little space without sacrificing something, like I thought the convo between the two guys at the diner lacked a bit of clarity between who was saying what and who was doing what actions. Obviously just a truncation problem, will love to see the story in a longer form where it has room to breath.

Matt Attack, that was me!"

Thank you. Glad you liked it. I was a little iffy, but if it touched one person, then mission accomplished! Plus it just means you have good taste. Haha
