The Obscura Spore
Approx. 28 min read
A woman comes north to empty her dead mother's hoarder house, expecting a month of sacks and a skip. On the fourth day she reaches for the wall of newspapers that has stood in the front room since 1991 and her arm goes into it up to the wrist. What's underneath is cold, translucent, and sweating a fluid that smells of her mother's perfume and the back of a hot television. It doesn't fight when she cuts it. It takes something else instead, and she only notices what's missing when her sister mentions a summer she can no longer find.
