A note for parents
This is a dark fantasy novella about a vampire-like creature hunting in Baltimore, explicitly designed for adult audiences. While only 21 pages, it explores existential horror and predatory behavior rather than graphic gore, but contains themes of murder, consumption, and moral emptiness unsuitable for younger readers. The philosophical questioning about existence provides minimal redemptive value given the disturbing premise.
