Show Notes

Narrated primarily by Helen Laser, this fast-paced horror story starts with a bang. Jess, a struggling actress, finds a scared 5-year-old boy hiding outside her apartment. When the boy’s angry father attempts to retrieve him, a monstrous creature attacks Jess’s neighbors and roommate, leaving behind death and destruction. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alex Richey discuss Laser’s portrayal of the boy with a careful balance of youthful fear and sad resolution. Her authentic depiction of Jess thoughtfully shifts between solicitousness of the boy, slowly increasing dread, and acute fear.
