I was driving to work this morning listening to the story and I almost had to pull over for a couple of minutes to stop the screaming heebie-jeebies from making me accidentally crash my freakin' car.
Honestly, I had to pause my iPod for a minute and just take a deep breath and remind itself it's just a goddamned story, f'chrissakes.
This one was the creepiest, the grossest, the nastiest of the lot so far.
It reminds me of a quote from Stephen King I read years ago where he said that his first goal was to terrify, and, failing that, he'd horrify, and, if that doesn't work, he'll just go for the gross-out.
Again, extremely nasty. My nerves a little shattered at this point. I hope after a week I'll be strong enough to take on another one like this if need be.
