Bad Dreams

"As a boy, he believed in monsters. As a man, he became one."

A boy in bed thinks something’s escaped the cellar. Suddenly, a deformed face looms over the boy with a harrowing scream. This bad dream is remembered by a man as he shaves, making him cut his neck. As he bleeds, he wonders "How many shaving cuts would it take to bleed to death?" He decides his guest locked downstairs needs a shave.
