Haunted Hallowen: Sean Ferrell + A Giveaway!

Years ago, before I was born, thunder woke my grandmother in the middle of the night. She sat up because of a presence in the room. Standing at the foot of her bed was my father, soaking wet, dripping rainwater onto the carpet.

He looked at her and said, "I am all right. I saw the rain."

My grandmother blinked and in that moment my father was gone. She was certain something had happened to him.

Miles away my father was standing at the side of a highway, getting soaked in the thunderstorm. He had been driving home. He hadn't seen the car with its lights out, didn't see that it had broken down, perpendicular across his lane of traffic. He didn't see the driver in the road behind the car waving his arms. He only saw the car when his smashed into it. When the accident was over he heard children crying.

Amazingly, no one was hurt. But as he waited for the police and the tow-truck, he stood beside the wreckage, getting soaked, as the rain dripped off of him, thinking of how close he'd come to being hurt, or hurting someone else, or worse.

Title: Numb

Syopsis: Numb, a man who feels no pain and has no memory of how he came to be this way, travels to New York City after a short stint in the circus to search for the answers to his past. But when word of his condition spreads—sparked by the attention he attracts from letting people nail his hands to bars for money—he quickly finds himself hounded on all sides by those who would use his unique ability in their own pursuits of fame and fortune. There’s the best friend who doesn’t quite know how to handle Numb’s newfound celebrity, the savvy talent agent who may or may not have Numb’s best interests in mind, the sadistic supermodel whose idea of a good time involves lion claws and can openers, and the blind girlfriend who might actually see something in Numb others don’t. As Numb navigates this strange world, and as he continues to search for clues from his past, he is forced to confront one of life’s toughest questions: Who am I?
