The Howling Man | A 100 Word Story

#252 The Twilight Zone S2E5 11/4/1960

One night, my car broke down near a convent. They provided me with a place to stay for the night in one of their many sheds on the property. It wouldn’t be right for a stranger, a man, to sleep in their main home. All they ask is that I stay put and don’t wander the grounds.

The howling startled me awake. I thought it was an animal but knew differently when I walked outside. Why are there so many sheds, I wondered.

I walked up to one and peeked through a small window to see a man in chains.
