I don't really get this one. What's actually happening? Wasn't the town abandoned so why the woman was there? Did search for the woman is Richard's true intention? What did he mean by 'gave me a bit of a run for my money'? I googled it and they said it mean; "to be as good at something as someone who is known to be extremely good", but I still can't understand how it related with the story 0_0

Sorry too much question but reading this made me wondering so much lol

Very atmospheric little scene. Right up 'til he speaks you don't know if he's a good guy or a bad guy and that works well. Well... one less reason to visit small town Oregon right here. :)

Wow, excellent twist! I loved the detail you placed here and there, about Oregon, boomtowns turned ghost towns, and their innate eeriness. Kudos to you for managing to leave a foreboding dread in the mind of the reader with such a small amount of words! Though it did left me wondering about Richard's motivations. One of the draws of horror is getting to know the villain, after all! This definitely left me wanting more.

Great and different take on the cornucopia and horn of plenty. Well done incorporating them into a horror genre!

I never know what I'm going to read when I read one of your stories and I like it that way!

After your build up I was all ready to see some ghosts, or perhaps a Thanksgiving dinner left on the table, etc. Instead, oh *shivers*

Thanks for sharing!

That guy sounds insane...I love it! He sounds like a perfect killer; all calm and knows where to kill his victims and has the situation under control. You did very well!

Again, you've done a beautiful job describing the place to let me picture it in my mind and even feel a little bit like I'd been there. Then you pulled out a great twist and made it clear that Richard was some sort of serial killer who was hunting down strangers (as opposed to a stalker who would have known whether she was married, etc.). Her terror is compelling as he takes his time relishing it and taunting her.

Maybe I'll have to admit "DUH-ME" when it's explained, but I can't quite figure out the purpose or intended meaning of his last line. Still, it was a fun quick read and did a great job transitioning the two main moods smoothly.

EEEEEeeeap. Remind me to stay out of the ghost towns in Oregon. Good story totally got me hooked in the dropped me!
