"... THREE KIDS INVESTIGATING A LOCAL NEIGHBORHOOD "LEGEND" DISCOVER THAT THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT COME COMPLETE WITH FUR, AND CLAWS, AND FANGS IN THIS ENGAGING, ATMOSPHERIC, COMING-OF-AGE, "TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD" MEETS "THE WOLFMAN" STYLE HORROR THRILLER" -- THE CREATURE FEATURE FEST BLOGSPOT
He is the neighborhood legend who lives in every whispered warning about the dark, the shadows, and the things that go bump in the night. He is the thing nightmares were made of. The thing that parents warned their naughty children about when they'd say to them, "You'd better behave--Or else he will get you".
He? Bodene Madison.
If you were a kid growing up in the neighborhood you've heard all of the warnings: Don't play on the same side of the street as the Madison house. Don't play in front of the Madison house. And whatever you do, for the love of god, don't ever go into the Madison yard. Ever. Especially at night.
Why?
Because somewhere inside the Madison house, beyond the huge chain linked fence that surrounded it like a wall, and the yard that their vicious hulking guard dog Rommel patrolled like a finely drilled soldier, there is a cellar. And in that cellar, according to the neighborhood legend, is where cantankerous old man Ebenezer Madison imprisoned his only son Bodene after a family "curse" took hold of him. Turning him into something animal. A beast. A monster.
A LookyLoo. Anyway, that's what they say.
There is nothing in life that can capture and hold the imagination of a kid like a mystery yet to be solved. Bodene Madison is one such mystery. And after seeing some "thing" strange prowling the shadows of their neighborhood one cold moonlit night, some "thing" huge and hairy that was clearly an animal to the eye except that it walked upright like a man and defied explanation, twelve year old Jefferson Beaumont, his spunky little sister Tazzie, and their friend Woody Wilson decide to once and for all solve the mystery of Bodene Madison.
The LookyLoo.
