HSA vs IT: Chapter 8
Tom’s been looking forward to his summer photography course at the university ever since he signed up. Even more so recently since all of his friends seemed to be losing their minds. A shapeshifting monster chasing them? Killing the children? It was absurd, but even Tom’s boyfriend, Dominic believes them. Tom needs a break. A week away from the hysteria. Paired with timid Elivia Spencer, a girl from the private school, on an assignment, Tom is reluctant at first. All rich people are the same in his eyes but he’s quick to learn that there’s something different about Elivia. And that afternoon, upon hearing the other kids talking about a secret tunnel beneath the campus, the two team together to investigate. But this adventure soon goes awry when Tom and Elivia realise they’re not the only ones in these tunnels. And as they delve deeper, they will soon understand the true meaning of fear. Maybe Tom will finally believe his friends’ tales of horror now he’s come face to face with his own nightmare…
HSA vs IT: Chapter 7
Now, Erika, Will and Emily have all faced It. Dominic believes It’s the same thing killing the children. The same thing that killed his brother. Tom still isn’t sure. And Sam? He doesn’t believe a word. Even after listening to Emily and Will’s terrifying account of the Merman emerging from the font in the church, Sam can’t possibly believe it. So certain that monsters, ghouls and ghosts could never exist in this cold, callous, mundane world, Sam doesn’t fear the lone journey home after curfew through Williamson Park; the formidable park sat at the highest point of the city where the great Ashton Memorial resides. But his confidence is about to be shaken – his whole world is about to change when Sam comes face to face with his own worst nightmare. Something that petrifies him far more than his brutish father. Something that will haunt him for the rest of his life…if he survives the night.
