We rely on our senses to understand the world. So, what do we do when they fail?
I’m near-sighted. Without my glasses, everything is a jumbled mess of colorful splotches. I can dismiss it as mildly irritating until a moment comes along that forces me to remember just how vulnerable I am.
I used to go to a 24-hour gym. I always had the place to myself. I’d stash my glasses in my locker, put in my earbuds, and spend the hour blissfully alone.
That one time, I was heading back to the changing rooms, when something caught my attention. I turned off my music and stood there for a moment, listening, peering into the blur of mirrors and machines. I nearly yelped when something moved.
That “something” was a huge guy. A bodybuilder. I had been staring right at him, but without my glasses on, had totally missed him. And if he had stayed still, I never would have known he was there.
It made me wonder what else slips by me… unnoticed.
Horrors don’t hide in this volume of Night Terrors. A family’s desire to see the sights during a trip takes them to a place where the living shouldn’t go. An innocent game night with friends unleashes a nightmare. And a search for treasure reveals things best left alone.
The things we should fear don’t always lurk in the shadows. Sometimes they’re standing right beside us.
And we never even notice.
