#807 Chattery Teeth- Stephen King


#807 Chattery Teeth- Stephen King

Bill Hogan is a traveling salesman. He stopped at Scooter’s Grocery and Roadside Zoo to get gas before heading home to Los Angeles. They are in the desert and a big wind storm is headed their way. While paying for gas he spots a pair of Jumbo Chattery Teeth in the novelty display booth. It’s one of those wind up toys that jump around. Normally they are smaller and made of plastic, but these are cast metal. Even though they seem broken he buys them for his son.

The wind has picked up as he leaves the store, and against his better judgment he picks up a hitchhiker who is about to get stuck in a sand storm. Just like his premonition, the hitchhiker tries to rob him at knifepoint. A car crash, a wind storm, a knife-fight later, he barely make sit out alive. He survives, this time with a new look on life and a new friend.
