Just finished reading The Night Children. Why hasn’t Alexander Gordon Smith been called to write a Doctor Who episode yet?! (First time I’ve been terrorized by gasmasks since The Empty Child… feels, lots of them.) Seriously creeped out now asdfjhgfhdskadgfa. I thought Furnace was mostly ok, I mean, it isn’t really scary as it’s evil, but holy shit, The Night Children. The build up, the tension, the lore, the revelations by the end of the story. THE IMAGERY OMG. Shivers.
“The night children,” said Andreas, translating Gyorgy’s garbled German. “Always smiling, but always sad. They can never go home because they have the night inside them.”
