oh wow Vod:cool:

I can totally picture this as a B&W graphic novel.

:D thank you


I am usually pretty light on the visuals, but i was going for a more "Lovecraftian" feel for this one.

The imminent death cheapens your ending and the recorder is kind of hackneyed at this point. The atmosphere and usage are skillfully vintage and ring true. I think you may actually have a better story with a survivor than with a casualty. I'm not saying turn the narrator into some howling Friday the 13th style wildman proclaiming dark prophecies, but your ending would feel harsher if he walked away from it.

hmmm... I don't like "cheapened", so i will definitely rethink it... however, I know the recorder thing is hackneyed, it was an intentional throwback to Notebook found in a deserted house by Robert Bloch :)

I like the author being dead-IMHO

Very good - I'm a bit jealous.
I have two small questions though - I may be misreading but. . .
fowl = pig ?
If the recorder clicks off before the splash - how do we hear the splash?

Fowl: I knew i was going to miss one... :)


It was originally a chicken, but when i typed the line "panic stricken chicken", i felt it kind of hurt the mood :) Godamn find and replace.... Plus, a pig is just more effective than a chicken to me.
(I fixed it :))

As far as the splash, what do you think?:D

I dunno - I'm still howling with laughter over panic stricken chicken
give me a a minute :p

That didn't even register when I read it (fowl-pig thing)

Demonique-you are sharp :cool:
