![]() ![]() ![]() That seems to have been Uncle Bob himself, in some strange way, and Stella ends the story sinking into his grave. There’s an extra, gruesome, element in that Uncle Bob kept talking about the boy who was buried in the hill and then dug up still alive. The visit to Uncle Bob’s house seems to push her over the edge, to where she can’t even remember where she lives and if she has a job. It’s one of the worst parts of Stella-how fake she is-and we see various characters in the story turn cold to her once they realize she’s lied to them. ![]() But her curse is that she makes up who she is and doesn’t remember the real Stella. Stella is stunned to learn she was on the show, since she doesn’t remember it. It gradually starts to look as though Uncle Bob’s stories actually affected the real lives of the children on his show. Review: 2020.327 ( A Word for Authors) Pro: Stella’s visit home starts off simply enough with cleaning Denny’s house, but the discovery of The Uncle Bob Show introduces an element of horror-literally, in the sense that “Uncle Bob” told horror stories on the air. ![]()
