A group a people get trapped in a grocery store when a mysterious mist rolls and the people realize there are creepy creatures that will kill you.  This novella is so unsettling with the ominous mist and hidden creatures within that can tear you in half.  The tension between the characters creates a lot of engaging drama that made me nervous.

I found it very interesting and it has a very nice and pleasant ending for a horror novel. I finished it in 2 days, it was a nice and informing brain twisting read!

I loved that!
Really tense, really heavy Lovecraftian horror.

Disgusting, brutal, and dark.

Definitely one of my favorite King novellas.
