About this listen

No one knows where he came from. No one knows what he wants. No one dares ask about his strange physical abnormalities. For a quiet suburban neighborhood, things are about to change. And it starts with a knock at the door.

Follow his rules. Don't call the police. Listen to his lessons. That's what Jack and his family were told. Held captive in their own house, they must face a growing storm of mental and physical trauma as they try to just stay alive.

But even if Jack can survive the horror of his childhood, will his tormentor ever leave him alone? And who is he really?

Who is Tommy Taffy?

After listening to The Black Farm, I couldn't resist starting this one. It most definitely didn't disappoint. Elias Witherow is fast becoming my number one favourite author. If you want excellent writing and a hellscape of madness, this is the guy to follow!
Excellent work by the narrator, too. If possible, please actually yell in the loud parts instead of "whisper" yelling. Besides that, I loved it!

Elias Witherow is the new God of Horror
