The Beast House
by Richard Laymon

Last summer, while cleaning rooms at The Welcome Inn, young Janice Crogan found the diary of Lilly Thorn -- sole survivor of the 1903 Beast House attacks. Now Janice hopes to strike it rich with the help of author Gorman Hardy. Hardy's previous nonfiction book, Horror at Black River Falls, was a major bestseller. Janice thinks he might write an even bigger bestseller with her help and with the aid of the diary. All she wants is a piece of the action.

In her letter to Hardy, Janice writes, "This diary I found is hot stuff. Lilly Thorn, the woman who wrote it, was the very first person ever to live in Beast House, and she goes into all kinds of details about where the monster came from, and what it's like, and everything. I mean everything. If you believe this, she even had sexual intercourse with it. I don't mean once, but constantly like she was obsessed. It's steamy stuff... The diary also goes into the first murders and let me tell you, this sure is not the way they tell it on the tour!"

Gorman Hardy smells another bestseller.

He's on his way to visit Janice and start his investigation of Beast House.

It'll be a great book.

If he lives to write it.
