Here on the bridle path, with no one to watch or judge, no one to find him foolish, he could push the pram along, taking a walk with the baby that never was. 

 
Unsettling grief mixed with small creepy village vibes, and an undertone of cult mentality. What's not to love!? As a huge fan of Joe Hill's longer novels, I'm so glad that he decided to write this Creature Feature as it really shows off his world-building on a shorter scale.

The Pram has tones of Pet Sematary which made me feel so nostalgic, yet it is still its own identity. It's funny, because the only author that can rival the work of SK, for me, is Joe Hill. He definitely has learnt from the best, and it shows. 

You must have felt it. The Covenant did, and they acted accordingly. Planted their trees all along it. Planted them and nourished them with blood.
