Pet Sematary 125835

   The house looked right, felt right to Dr Louis Creed. Rambling, old, unsmart and comfortable. A place where the family could settle; grow the children and play and explore. The rolling hills and meadows of Maine seemed a world away from the fumechoked dangers of Chicago. 

  Only the occasional big truck out on the twolane highway, grinding up through the gears, hammering down the long gradients, growled out an intrusive threat. But behind the house and far away from the road: that was safe. Just a carefully cleared path up into the woods where generations of local children have processed with the solemn innocence of the young, taking with them their dear departed for pets burial.

  A sad place maybe, but safe. Surely a safe place. Not a place to seep into your dreams, to wake you, sweating with fear and foreboding.
