Raw Materials

Horror author C. Dennis Moore's short story Raw Materials takes place in the forgotten town of Ockerville, Missouri when Simmons takes the wrong exit and finds himself lost in the maze of the town's streets. When he stops to use the bathroom in a local restaurant, he comes back out to find a group of kids trying to scavenge his car. Soon it's not just a bunch of kids stealing his hubcaps, it's the entire town chasing him down. Simmons doesn't know what he did or what they're after, but he's not sticking around to find out. He finds himself on the porch of a junk dealer who offers him a place to hide in exchange for his story. The old man, Guthrie, has always been considered an outsider in Ockerville. Will he help a fellow in need, or do what he has to in order to finally prove himself to the people of his adopted hometown? Raw Materials is just right for fans of THE TWILIGHT ZONE and TALES FROM THE CRYPT. Continuing the theme of small town stories, this book features the bonus story Luck of the Draw, a retelling of the Hansel and Gretel story.
