What Draws Us Near is one of the first books published by Little Ghosts, an independent publisher and horror bookshop in Toronto. In ‘Rewind’, a detached, maybe supernatural narrator describes a mysterious video, like a surveillance video of a crime scene. It describes the action in affectless prose, offering logical interpretations of things that are obviously much more sinister. It’s one of the creepiest and most gruesome stories I’ve ever read.
