A husband\u2019s obsessive desire for a child leads to an unexpected manifestation of his yearning in a nightmarish short story about fatherhood dreams by New York Times<\/em> bestselling author Joe Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Willy and Marianne\u2019s farmhouse in Maine has acres of meadow and fresh air, and a lonesome bridle path in the forest along which Willy daydreams and ambles. When he\u2019s loaned a decrepit old baby stroller to cart his groceries home, the rickety squeak of the wheels comforts him. So do the sweet coos of a baby Willy knows can\u2019t be real. Can it? In this twisted thicket, wishes come true\u2014with a price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joe Hill\u2019s <\/em>The Pram is part of <\/em>Creature Feature, a collection of devilishly creepy stories that tingle the spine and twist the mind. They can be read or listened to in one petrifying sitting.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

I will be honest and say that I was left feeling a little confused by this story, so I’m not too sure how to review but here goes nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m giving this book 5 stars based on the fact that I enjoyed the writing and the description of the scenes helped me immerse myself into the story. So kudos to the author for that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also enjoyed that this was a different spin on fertility issues. Usually you see it from the woman’s perspective bit this was from the man’s and I liked that. It definitely made me curious if a lot of men felt the same way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I knew instantly that of course there would be an issue with the pram. Willy is given it to cart groceries home and ends up bonding with said pram and the happenings surrounding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This novella wasn’t as creepy as I hoped. Maybe I should have read it late at night with the lights off. Or I’m desensitized. But I enjoyed it none the less. This review is a little wishy washy, so check the book out for yourself. You may just enjoy it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
