I liked this little flash story, not so much for what it said, but where it left off. I always think the reader's imagination is a necessary part of any story, and leaving this scene so ripe with expectancy was an excellent move.
Now the real horror of what I think may be going to happen...!

Nice story. Tight with a good flow and solid ending. Most of the others didn't really end well, I thought. Good work.

You are pretty generous. I thought Cat Food was brilliant.

I enjoyed this story. So who was baiting who? Looks like you lost. The one that didn't get away. I like a twist in the tale. Enjoyable.

As unaccustomed as I am......to trying to create horror in any form, ok I lied, just ask my ex-husband, I'm glad that you enjoyed my stab, ho ho, at this venue.

Writer,
Oooh No! What a way to be repaid for kindness..Guess that's what makes it a good horror, huh? Good luck in the contest.

I don't think you want "that" in the opening sentence
The final sentence in that paragraph also has an awkward construction to it.
They say we should listen to our instincts - I guess the narrator of this story should have gone with that initial chill that went down his spine and forgotten about offering the silent stranger a mug of coffee. LOL
That is one creepy ending to your flash horror story!! Brooke

I'll take another look. Thanks. It's easier when there is no set word limit. I had to be a brutal editor.

Thanks, I usually pass too, but its a great discipline to write about subjects that are listed rather than have a passionate attachment to your own imagination.
