I Found the Boogeyman Under My Brother's Crib

I Found Horror

By: Ben Farthing

Narrated by: Ember Lin

The Boogeyman is waiting to tuck you in…

Rachel's parents have a simple rule: five hours of sleep. No more, no less.

But after six months of this "simple" schedule, Rachel's exhausted mind plays tricks on her. She sees things that can't be real.

Like the Boogeyman in her little brother's room.

When no one believes her, Rachel takes matters into her own hands. But her sleep-deprived state blurs the line between reality and nightmare. Is the grotesque figure with too many teeth just a hallucination? Or is there something sinister lurking in the shadows?

A gripping tale of family expectations and the horrors that hide in plain sight, from Ben Farthing, the “King of Creepy” (MJ Mars, author of The Suffering).

Don't Look Under Your Bed

Once again, Ben Farthing has created a horror tale that burrows its way under your skin. The narration was fantastic. She fit the character voice perfectly

Great addition to the I Found horror series!

Ben Farthing has crafted another great creepy horror story! Creepy and disturbing in the perfect way! A great series to read during spooky season or anytime of the year!

it's ok

weird short story, weird characters with their odd rules that are a bit over board and ignorance.

Another Great Entry in the "I Found" Horror Series

This was a good, quick, creepy read. Without getting spoiler-y, Ben did a good job of setting up expectations that he later subverts. I don’t want to say too much, but if you’ve read previous entries in the “I Found” series, you may be a bit surprised by this one as there is a key difference. Again, I can’t say without giving away too much but an expectation I had was subverted, and not in a bad way. If I have a critique, it’s that I’d like it to have been a touch more drawn-out and developed a touch more. As far as gripes go, that ain’t bad. As they say, “Always leave them wanting more.” And Ben does that here. Bravo! I recommend “I Found the Boogeyman Under My Brother’s Crib.”

meh

This one isn't a good as some of his others. A bit boring and could've used more fleshing out.
