It Came from Under the Shed

Lucy's fascination with dirt was far beyond the average kid. In fact, it surpassed most adults. So, when her family builds a new shed at the back of their property she takes every soil sample she can find. But there is something strange in the dirt: wiggling strands of silicon.

Then, the day after the shed is built she finds strange hand formations in the fresh soil: a hand with six fingers. The following day, feet appear on the other side of the shed, as if someone was squashed by the new construction. But the prints aren't there for long.

No one but Lucy's father believes her, at least not until a neighbor is found dead with silicon in her mouth.
