Hi Herb,

Shades of Lady Macbeth and her "out damned spot" - the scrubbing didn't work for her either. At a guess this guy will get away with an insanity plea ...

Herb:

So do I get to blame you for my nightmares tonight
Or should I have had the foresight
To realize this was going to end in a strange way
So should have saved it to read during the day?

Tell me, how does one clean something from under his
fingernails if he has eaten his fingers? Enquiring
minds want to know!

thanks for sharing
love,
jan

    The diary entries are flash backs and when the last entry is written his fingers are still intact. Did you not get that? as everyone one else has, maybe i scared you witless ,LOL. Thanks for reading

Well this is an excellent submittal for a horror story. The maniacal obsession with his fingers is so well described it gave me goose bumps. Well balanced against his observation of her. A truly horrific tale

Wow you!!! This was great!!! A really warped mind he had and carried out all of his passionate threats too!!! I love that you did this write in a diary format because it made it all the more believable for a scary write!! Yeow, it is as dark as hell, darker even, and documents the demented mind to a T!!! Well done,guy ... very well done!!!

You have certainly written a horror story. Interesting way of presenting the event as diary entries. Well written with a good pace. The ending was vivid in showing us the utter madness experienced by this person. Good luck in the contest.

Well done. That was a very strong story. Difficult to read with excellent (and horrible) imagery. You did a great job with this. I don't often read horror but this one kept me gripped. well done.
