FOUR is four letters: a vampire novella
FOUR is four letters is a short novella from Vampire Novella — an exercise in the fear of what hides from us in plain sight. Unlike other sinister numbers of note, your 13's and triple 6's, 4 bides its time, and strikes seemingly at moments when it's the most ignored. The aftermath of which is usually so grotesque and horrific everyone overlooks what the evidence clearly points to, the entire event can be traced back to a basic cycle of fours. This particular novella, though based in the vampire genre, can also be a treat for the average arithmomaniac.
A Cycle of FOUR
Four cars crash at a 4-way stop, no one is hurt, information is exchanged, and this occurrence is all but a memory save for a cell phone snapshot shared on a "fail blog". Few will notice that this was at the intersection of 4th and Maple - even fewer will notice the snapshot was taken at 4:00. Few will notice because 4 hours later, 4 blocks away, a 4-bedroom house will catch fire, and there will be no survivors. Four will lose their lives. This is a cycle of four.
4 and vampires
FOUR is four letters is the first in a series of novellas from Vampire Novella. Though it is true, vampires are in no way governed by the cycle of 4, they do take advantage of the opportunities when they arise. This novella is no different, the fact that vampires are involved is almost an afterthought. We could have spun the story around a rabid dog, a blind stranger, or even a 4-way stop sign. Four is the focus, do not overlook it, 4 will be expecting you to. That being said, vampires and the number 4 are no strangers.
