Serial killer at large

The TV blared
‘Killer at large.Targets old women.Secure the doors’..
Alone she trembled.Son was away.
Her house was in desolate corner.It was 2 am
The dogs barked. Dull thuds. Long silence
Her heart beat fast.Loud knocking.
She fainted in panic
Worried about mom son had rushed early
Doctor pronounced cardiac arrest
TV blared another victim

  2. Felt in the 1st line itself that it will end like this. Nice story.

  3. sometimes the t.v. channels create such hypes about things that people die out of fear, its scary how media uses its position sometimes.
