The Crossing Guard
Ratings1
Average rating4
There is something off about Val the crossing guard. Eric has taken notice, and he feels certain. She’s doing something funky to the water bottles she offers out to the school kids. But when she catches him trying to destroy them, he quickly blames another passing kid. Safe for the moment, but no less culpable.
This was quick and enjoyable. It read like a Goosebumps short, like something from Tales to Give You Goosebumps or even the newer series Stinetinglers. It even has the kind of classic cliffhanger ending you’d expect.
This is available in the full collection Nightmares From a Desk, but for $0.99 this is a great sample of the author’s work if you’re on the fence.
