A cursed swing creaking in the night.

A grieving son cooks up a plan to avenge his neglected mother.

A boy lured from his abusive home by a stranger who promises he’ll never need to grow up.

A scout troop chasing the rainbow to its end… only to find something waiting that should never be found.

In Playing in the Dark and Other Stories, John Durgin delivers thirteen chilling tales where grief festers into terror and innocence is devoured by the horrors lingering just beyond the light. From haunted woods to disease spreading bugs, each story pulls you deeper into the shadows.
