   " Daddy, I had a bad dream. " You blink your eyes and pull up on your elbows. Your clock glows red in the darkness - It's 3:23.

   " Do you want to climb into bed and tell me about it?"

   " No, daddy."

The oddness of the situation wakes you up more fully. You can barely make out your daughter's pale form in the darkness of your room.

   " Why not sweetie?"

   " Because in my dream, when I told you about the dream, the thing wearing Mommy's skin sat up."

For a moment, you feel paralyzed; you can't take your eyes off of your daughter. The covers behind you begin to shift.
