Description
Here's a review of the story, which I have yet to read.
Aunt Hester, brimming with Lovecraftian themes that also dart in
their own morbid direct, deals with a woman that can, for some
strange reason, switch bodies with her twin brother if she wants
to. She finds it out quite by accident at first, doing things
innocently and then out of anger. Well, this doesn't sit too well
with him, and she learns, in a not-so-wonderful manner involving a
very valuable life lesson, why she shouldn't play in grounds she's
been told to leave alone. The ending to this piece is a very good
one, taking the main plot and standing it on its proverbial ear a
bit, giving the reader something that they can take with them
anytime they find themselves in a dark, silent void within the
night.
