I probably should have listened to this late at night instead of in the middle of the day, while shopping for groceries. Although supermarkets can be a nightmare these days too.
It's an urban legend story in which during a sleepover four boys are trying to summon the Flashlight Man. The goal is to stare at him as long as you can, but not so long that the beam of his flashlight reaches your face. Or else ...
Not great. Not bad. Perfectly average.

I listened to the audio version. The narration by Stefan Rudnicki was good. But this story didn't give him the opportunity to shine (heh) as much as he did elsewhere. His narration of Adam-Troy Castro's Today's Question of the Day in Waverly, Ohio is still my highlight of the year.
