Witching Hour: Mr. Boots (A Short Story) - Witching Hour

Finding your place in the world is challenging enough, but how about the entire universe? John would rather enjoy a cold beer and watch a sports game than answer such difficult questions. However, an outburst of melancholy from his best friend and the appearance of a headless cowboy may call for a sudden change in plans. From alien encounters to otherworldly excursions, Witching Hour is a series of stories about the weirdness lurking just beneath the surface of everyday life.
This story is also available in the novella Witching Hour: Volume 2.
