Twilight Zone Style Horror

"Great tale. Short and snappy with a fabulous twist. The author has produced an original and chilling tale which draws upon a modern addiction. Not knowing Todd's eventual fate makes the story even more harrowing, I can only imagine that he will eventually starve or worse spend years trapped in his own little prison. Poor Todd, mind I can't help but grin."

This is new.

"It's short, it's blunt and it's a bit crude. 3 things that many horror stories lack. I find it particularly difficult to write stories as short as this. My problem is I don't think it gives me enough time to get the point across. You managed to get your point across very quickly. It's also nice to see a modern horror story, involving technologies from this century, as opposed to haunted houses (like my story), ancient artefacts and people long dead. Very good."

Intriguing

"I should start by saying that I'm not a fan of horror, as it goes. However, an author friend was reading some work of mine and I am dutifully returning the favour. I think the story is well-paced and I like the writing style There is good use of language, which is difficult to achieve in such a small piece. I also like the twist at the end. Makes me think this could be a part of a much larger story if the author so desired. All in all, a great little piece of work. I'm looking forward to reading more from this author. Well done!"
