Barely Made It

Encounters with the Unnatural

What if your brush with death wasn’t just bad luck—but something… watching?
From bestselling horror author G.J. Fene comes a bone-chilling collection of first-person accounts from those who lived through the impossible. These are the stories of people who were the last to escape, the only one to survive, the ones who ran—and barely made it.
Inside this haunting anthology:

• A solo backpacker finds someone else’s gear in his pack after encountering mimicry in the woods.
• A miner swears something screamed louder than the rockfall that trapped his crew.
• Two college students drive the same road over and over—until something starts closing the distance when they blink.
• A mirror blinks first… and then starts to smile.
• A man trapped under the ice sees a woman staring up from below. Smiling. Waiting.

These are not stories of bravery.
They’re warnings from those who lived.
Just barely.
Perfect for fans of true paranormal encounters, survival horror, and uncanny experiences that blur the line between real and unreal.
