Tuna- All-time favorite.
If Buddy is ever hiding somewhere in the house, all we need to do is open a new can of tuna. He’ll be by our side within seconds.

Evil’s Door

Childhood rumors are often prevalent in a family-oriented community.  Some boast that they have seen a UFO flying overhead while others claim to have witnessed a ghost soaring through the trees.  Some stories are so believable that they trickle down from sibling to sibling, friend to friend; creating a neighborhood buzz that lingers for years. 

Ryan Sheffield’s neighborhood was no different.  Though no one would admit it, adults and children alike were freaked out by the eccentric woman who lived in the ghastly corner house, but aside from that, his world as he knew it was an ordinary one.

Bizarre situations did not surface until Ryan began working at his very first job.  To his peers and superiors, it was just a traditional office. To Ryan, it was much more than that after a series of inexplicable occurrences haunted his every conscious moment. 

Through a bit of intense research, he uncovered the building’s gruesome history and was led down its horrifying path.  He opened the door to a hell he did not want to live in and tried his best to avoid the evil that surrounded him.  The truth revealed itself to him in more ways than one; a truth he was better off not knowing and one that could essentially end his life.
