Tether is the latest short story from Jason Little, written for the upcoming From the Fright Vault Patreon series.

In death, he expected peace. Instead, he woke up in a morgue awake, aware, and trapped. As the truth unravels, he discovers that the soul doesn’t always leave the body... not until it fully decays.

What if death isn't the end, but just the beginning of a new kind of suffering?
