Eerie Basin

A Short Story

De: Ivy Pochoda

Narrado por: L.J. Ganser, Jackie Zebrowski

An old haunt in a once-derelict Brooklyn neighborhood harbors terrifying secrets in a wickedly chilling short story by Ivy Pochoda, the award-winning author of Ecstasy.

Erin tends bar at the last dive left in gentrified Red Hook, Brooklyn, where old-timers spin tales of the bar’s legacy and the waterfront’s crime-ridden past. Her boss, Jimmy, a real estate magnate responsible for much of the neighborhood’s shiny transformation, also has a story to share. Back when he was a struggling beat cop, two neglected boys introduced him to an ancient creature that made Jimmy’s dreams come true. Nightmares too. Erin doesn’t believe a word. The bar is her life. But this bar at the end of the world is also home to a deadly stowaway. And it’s looking for a new host.

Great Halloween Horror Story!!

This is a great short horror story, just in time for Halloween!👻
Creepy and original, with excellent narration, especially by the male Narrator. The cover art promises a wild ride from the start, but I thought I would like it anyway because I have listened to other works by this author and liked them very much. Give it a try…why not?!! 😍🤗👍🏼

Grabbed me

Starts out strong. Loved the female narrator. She bumped the story up.

The twist was placed, and in my opinion wasn't clear as to how it originated. Perhaps I missed a clue early on.

Overall, a creepy good read.

Well written, not my cup of tea

Well written horror story. I felt the reader on the audio tape did a good job.
The book just was not something I enjoyed. I guess I am too old for horror.

Great

This was a pretty good creepy short story. As a New Yorker I love to read/listen to books based in NYC.
