The Lottery - Shirley Jackson
Another classic horror short story. So short, in fact, you can read it in about ten minutes. But guaranteed it'll play on your mind far longer.
Here's a pdf:

Truly disturbing. Apparently when it was first published in the New Yorker readers sent Jackson hate-mail for writing something so horrible.

About halfway through. A little slower going than I expected but entertaining nevertheless.

I'm curious to read his short story collection, Jesus' Son. Have you read it? Any good?
