10 Tales to Tide You Over Until the Premiere of Jordan Peele's Us

Gretchen McNeil weaves a masterful tale with 3:59, about Josie and Jo, two teenage girls who are doppelgängers living in parallel universes that overlap every 12 hours at exactly the same time. Fascinated by Jo's perfect world, Josie agrees to pass through the portal and switch places for a day. But Jo's existence is far from perfect — it's more like a nightmare where shadowy creatures feed on human flesh. By the end of the 12 hours, Josie longs to return to her own life. One problem: Jo has sealed the portal and trapped Josie in a world of terror. Can Josie discover a way home before it's too late?
