The Weird Boy on Third Street

Summary

In this dark, paranormal short story and coming-of-age tale, Scott and his family move into their new home in the middle of summer. On the surface, they are settling into your typical quaint lower-middle-class suburban neighborhood. We follow Scott’s exploration of the place as he battles to make friends, gains acquaintances, and goes on to discover that his new home harbors a dark secret. Can one tell the difference between imagination and actually talking to a non-human entity?
