This was chilling! A knocking at the door in the dark, wee hours is, in itself, enough to get the adrenaline racing and the fear pumping. And then to find a crazed stranger there and the mundane world gone mad…it truly is a nightmare!
Yeah, there’s more going on here than just man’s savagery to his fellow man, but what that is, i’m not sure. Maybe another nightmare will get me there! 😁
I really enjoyed this. The short, sharp sentences and the mundane, but vivid details made the story all the more unsettling. This felt like it could happen to anyone anywhere. Great story!
You are a good writer, Daniel, no doubt about it. Your content scares me shitless.
That’s very kind of you Sharron. Thanks very much 🙏

And we're off to the races! Good stuff, Dan! Enjoyed this! Imagine we could record dreams...
Thanks Alexander 👍🏼
Aye, I enjoyed that line too 😁
I didn't expect the shift from a home invasion to a hint of apocalyptic horror. plot's inspired by dreams are always the best.
Thanks very much Mkwawa 🙏
Yeah, the dream led me down that path and the story just followed. There might be more to come though. I have a few ideas 👍🏼
You are welcome. Looking forward ☺️

A really good story. The pacing and atmosphere were great!
Thanks very much. I really appreciate your kind words 🙏
Wow, you had me running around my house, checking to make sure my doors were all closed and locked.
Thanks very much Kathleen. I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙏
You’re welcome, Daniel

Thanks very much Liz 🙏
Yeah, there’s a whole lot going on here, and none of it good. Really glad you enjoyed the story 👍🏼
Great stuff mate 👏🏻
Thanks very much Stephen 👍🏼
OMG, Dan! How dare you do that to me. So freaking. creepy.
Sorry about that Jessica 😁
To be fair, I found the whole thing pretty scary too, so I’m glad that came across in the story 🙏👍🏼
The brain can be quite terrifying.
It sure can 😨😳😁
Great writing, Dan! I enjoyed this!
Thanks very much Caro 🙏
The beginning of the end. Tight and tense writing, Daniel. This story certainly 'has legs' if you want to keep it going. Great job. - Jim
