All I can suggest is reading it. It's a cracking story, one of his best.

Vaguely-interesting personal note: Near the end of the story, the narrator mentions Maumee, Ohio. The Dean of the International Studies where I went to university was from there, and mentioned the fact early and often.

When I showed him the ref in "TSOI", you should have seen the look on his face. >:)

Thanks, East, you've given me my nightmares for the next two weeks.

Try The Haunter in the Dark during a powercut.

Or The Shadow out of Time (My favourite by far).

Try _The Hound_ on a dark night, with a storm blowing, and your 90-lb., inordinately friendly black Labrador Retriever/whatever-cleared-the-fence-first being suddenly awakened in a way which sets off his "Code Fire" woof.

An isolated cabin in the middle of the woods.
Wind blowing.
branches tapping a window.

Whisperer in the dark.
FINAL DESTINATION!
