Don't be scared. Be terrified. Brian Vale is a family man carving out his piece of the American dream. The only thing he has lacked in fulfilling his dream was a plot of land to call his own. After years of saving and sacrifice, he's arrived. He's a homeowner. For the Vales, their new home is near perfect. Spacious. Affordable. Comfortable. The unexpected benefit of a nice, helpful neighbor, albeit a little annoying. Life is good. What the Vales are about to discover is the powerful lure of the mirage. When what is camouflaged as a blessing is revealed to be a curse, it threatens to take away not just their home but their sanity. When help arrives the only guarantee is that the Vales have a new home...and there's some...thing is in the basement. The Basement is the fourth story in The Dark Corner miniseries, a collection of supernatural and dark fantasy short stories, novelettes, and novellas. It is a supernatural horror novella.
