Hello Darkness #20

**No rest for the wicked!

Hello Darkness** is back for another collection of mind-bending horror. If you were still thinking of getting a good night’s rest this month, kiss those ZZZ's goodbye!

It’s the bottom of the ninth level of hell in "Cassie, Part III," the final inning of Sam Humphries and Eleonora Carlini’s all-satanic-girl baseball smash hit.

In "Away Message," Jorge Corona (Transformers) takes a man who just wanted to get away from it all to the edge of his own private apocalypse.

And "The Thread" by Lauren Knight, in which a simple act of personal grooming takes a turn so gruesome you’ll skip lunch for the next week.
