Christmas at Glosser's

What happened in the secret sub-basement of Glosser's department store in Johnstown, Pennsylvania every Christmas Eve? Jack Shaffer found out in 1975, when he was eleven years old.

And then he found out what it felt like to die.

"Where did you say you were going?" Mom stared at Jack through slitted eyes, holding one hand over the phone receiver in her grip.

"The library." Jack scrubbed his fingers through his short sandy hair in frustration. Mom had been talking on the phone and hadn't heard him the first two times he'd said it. "There's a book I need to get."

Mom waved him off. "Go on, then." She didn't ask if he was sure the library was open on Christmas Eve, didn't tell him to be careful or hurry home. She wasn't always big on that sort of thing, since her latest boyfriend had moved out.
