This is a reading from my 2014 draft, a horror-ish short story called Moving Day.

Now that I think back on this, I believe I wrote this as part of a Camp NaNoWriMo event in July of 2014. (This was during a time when I seriously considered the possibility of writing books as a retirement plan, so I was writing a lot.)
I place it in the horror genre by default. It’s not particularly horrifying, but a lot of abnormal stories that don’t really belong anywhere else tend to get shoehorned into the horror genre, a la so many Stephen King books, so that’s where this goes.
It’s about a strange event that happens while someone is moving to a new house.
By the way, I didn’t make this clear in the audio, but this is only the beginning of the story. :)
