Pairing: None
Warnings: Spoilers for general season three themes.
Summary: There are stories about the old man next door. Response to 100_ghosts week #21 prompt happily ever after.
They say the old man next door is a writer. He writes books about fighting monsters. They’re not fairy tales, ending with happily ever after; they’re manuals for surviving in a world nobody dreamed of fifty years ago, when it was safe to go outside after dark. When you didn’t have to test your guests with mirrors and holy water and people actually buried their dead loved ones. When nobody worried about the salt mines running dry. They also say he’s a demon king in exile, plotting to free his brother from Hell, but you shouldn’t believe everything you hear.
The sequel to this drabble is "The Hunter".
