Review by: Voice Spider on June 02, 2012 :
Very short story that captures a lot of Lovecraftian themes in a small space and time. Very pleased with how this one came together and how well it was written. Some of the images brought to life by Loomis' prose are simply amazing and she does a good job with Lovecraftian language.

All in all, a pleasing little mythos tale that any fan of Lovecraft will enjoy.
