Ankle Snatcher

Creature Feature Collection

By: Grady Hendrix

Narrated by: Michael Crouch

Obey the rules. It’s the only way to survive the night in a short story about what hides in the dark by the New York Times bestselling author of The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires.

Marcus grew up believing his father killed his mother—then blamed it on the boogeyman under the bed. Always leave the lights on, his father warned, or the boogeyman will get you. Marcus still heeds the superstition, especially when he invites his new girlfriend over. Is Marcus haunted by a creature or has he just inherited his father’s murderous delusions? The night will tell.

Grady Hendrix’s Ankle Snatcher is part of Creature Feature, a collection of devilishly creepy stories that tingle the spine and twist the mind. They can be read or listened to in one petrifying sitting.

Ehhhh…. (head scratch)

Too many unanswered questions and no twist ending — it felt like I waited for something that never came. The narrator was good though… and the description of the “eating” was good. But overall, I was unimpressed

Every kid’s nightmare

As an adult I still don’t sleep with my feet hanging over the bed, terrified of what might be lurking under the bed. Grady Hendrix captures that fear perfectly in this story of what hides under our beds in the dark.

too short

I liked the story overall but the ending felt like it was lacking for me.

Y'all...

I am an old and I still will not sleep with any part of my body hanging off the bed. I just can't do it.

Now I have to worry about standing up without turning the lights on!

This is a very short story about the boogyman and it is so good.

Can't really say more or it will spoil it but I highly recommend this.

Michael Crouch did an excellent job narrating this one.

Great

Wish there was more it was great. The author really understands horror. Love all his books
