A Good and Happy Child

Justin Evans

George Davies has a problem: he can’t bring himself to hold his newborn son. Desperate to save his dwindling marriage and redeem himself as a father and husband, George visits a therapist and begins to delve into the childhood memories that may be the root of his issues. Ten-year-old George, in the wake of his father’s harrowing and unexpected death, is experiencing ominous visions u some friendly, others outright terrifying. Unable to control those visions, George starts to display erratic behaviour and eventually becomes violent. When a mysterious murder is ultimately revealed, the stakes are suddenly much higher for him and his family. Are the visions just the product of a grief-stricken child’s overactive imagination? Symptoms of mental illness? Or is ten-year-old George possessed by a darker, more malevolent force?
