🌟Review (4.5/5) 🌟
A different type of fear to play with. Interesting!
This one is an interesting story! It’s the type of horror that makes you most fearful of all the possibilities the ending gives. Absolutely well-executed by building up the suspense. What CAN you expect when a group of scientists decides to use the DNAs of famous historical figures to clone them, bring them to the present time, and house them all in one building? Brilliant minds like Einstein, and Poe. Oh, also, Adolf Hitler.
Truly captivating. This is one of those short stories that are so well-delivered, but… man, I really wish this was longer! I would love for a full novel that hammers the lesson that we should all learn from history to stop the cycle.
You can read this short story in the book called A-Z of Horror. You can check it out on Amazon. It’s free to read through Kindle Unlimited!
