The Static Room
The first time I noticed something was wrong was when Freya, my two-year-old daughter, started having conversations with the ceiling fan in her nursery. It was an old, wobbling thing,...
The Dumpster Sentinel
I’ve lived in this neighborhood for fifteen years, in a modest house with a brick-walled patio that’s my sanctuary. Old Mrs. Kessler next door passed away last spring, and her...

The Ticking of the Cellar Clock
We moved into the old farmhouse in the middle of a hot, dry August, just six days after our second daughter, Lily, was born. The place sat on a sprawling,...
