What a delightfully horrid story. I've heard of babies being born with teeth already in place, but never with enough to bite the hands off of the OB-GYN. The parents will be looking for a good dentist soon, no doubt. An interesting read, and one that made me wonder how the mother and father are going to feed the little tyke. I see you already thought about the complications of breast feeding - and my mind went to feeding the baby a breast might be a tad uncomfortable. I guess they'll have to toss him his food, preferably from a good distance away.

    Yeah, while the little bugger is housed and locked up in a cage, heh-heh...

    Thanks a bunch for reading and commenting on yet another Tiny Tale of Terror, Rose. All of the authors who have contributed stories, myself included, sure do appreciate your support!
    Pleasant Screams, and Happy Halloween...
    Hugs!

I'm back at it today, trying to track down the reviews that mysteriously disappeared . They called it a glitch ... Or was it this toothy, hungry babe of yours being very, very bad yesterday morning?

I nearly jumped off the couch when I opened this tiny tale. Then I heard the phone and thought it was the one right beside me. lol
Totally disorientated, I read your macabre tale.
Man, what an experience.

I'd say if it ate the OBGYN's hands, they're going to have a hell of a time finding a pediatrician.

    Yeah, I had to rewrite my review for part 8 of Dee's Collectibles early this morning myself, Ellen. Hopefully you've received that one.

    So, the sound FX got ya, huh? When I initially began this series some months ago, I wanted the stories to play out like those old radio dramas such as NBC's Mystery Theater and the like. I still listen to those old radio broadcasts online. I'd much rather do that, or read, as to watch the boob tube.

    Call me sentimental.

    Thanks a million for the review and helpful feedback.

    Always with respect

I had to laugh at the last bit: very good appetite, I could just imagine a grin on his face. This is a perfect horror story for Halloween, Dean. You kept the story moving well, I liked the uncertainty at the beginning and how it folds out in the end. An excellent piece, thanks for sharing...Jacob

Wow! AS if child birth wasn't painful enough... I loved the imagery. I could see the doctor come running out of the delivery room with no hands, blood spurting all over the walls and that smiling baby. Great Halloween story.

    If men had to give birth, mankind would eventually dwindle away and die off completely, Sharon. There's NO WAY I would do that, no ma'am!
    Now that you know what a big wuss I am when it comes to pain, I'll thank you kindly for your awesome comments and stellar six star rating. I'm glad you enjoyed the story, and I genuinely appreciate your review.
    All my best to you & yours

Hey, Dean,

Yikes!...that nurse might want to add "caution when feeding!" to her list of information.
And poor Dr. "Stumpy", now what's he supposed to do. Things like that will screw-up your golf game:)
You do, however, pack a lot of punch in this snapshot of an ill-fated delivery. It was a great read, my friend...nice work.
Hope all is well,
Bill

    Thanks, Bill. I appreciate you dropping by to take a peek at this latest installment to Tiny Tales of Terror, and I appreciate your comments.
    Unless the good doctor becomes adept at using his prosthetics, I'd say it's a pretty safe bet that his golfing days are over.
    Thanks again!

Love this! You should send this to the Shorts channel to be made into a tiny movie! Lol! Great job Dean. I enjoyed this immensely. I will have to read the rest of the collection! Hope you publish them in a paperback! I'll buy! :D

    I'd have to get together with all of the other contributors who've posted stories in this series and get their permission first in order to get it published, Suse. I know that at least one of the contributing authors, Michaelk, is pursuing publication of some or all of his own stories. Having said that, perhaps you would like to submit your own Tiny Tale of Terror for inclusion into the book. The only stipulations are that your submission must be a micro (100 words or less), or flash fiction (500 words or less) story, and written in the horror vein or genre. I'm not sure if you write horror or not, but if you have never tried, then perhaps now is the time to give it a shot.
    I deeply appreciate your readership, time and generous six star rating, as well as your support in this long-running series.
    Thanks so much again, Suse. Pleasant Screams!

    Jenny, I hate to say this but I'm sure you'll agree with me.

    If men had to give birth we would go out of our way to abstain from all sexual activity and contact. Mankind would dwindle away and eventually die off. There is no way I would do it, no ma'am! I'm too big of a baby and I don't relish the idea of squeezing something the size of a bowling ball from my rectum.

    It just wouldn't happen.

    Thanks so much for the review. I deeply appreciate it! ;)

    Fortunately as soon as you hold that baby a fierce love gets hold of you. We truly forget the pain...until he nex time that is

Oh Dean, you have outdone yourself with this one: I'll have nightmares for sure now! ;)
As usual, you present a truly terrifying story from an almost safe distance, hinting at the horrors that are either occurring in another room, or about to occur. Nice job!

    Thanks, Carol.
    These Tiny Tales are written to try and deliver the greatest amount shivers in the shortest amount of time possible. It's not always easy to accomplish, but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that every single writer who has graciously contributed a story (or multiple stories) feels the same way as I do. We always give it the Ole College Try.
    Thanks so much for reading and commenting. I do appreciate it.

Love your author notes. (titillating, heh-heh...) Sure that ain't you as an infant, Mr. (SPOOKY) Dean? Has a remarkable resemblance, this is more like a nightmare! Amazing that this little monster did not eat its way out of the womb. Never bite the hand that feeds you. Somebody ate my stars, maybe that munchkin SEED OF CHUCKY. BOO...

    Thanks, 'Ghost. Yean, someone ( or something) ate up all of my stars already too, and here it is only Tuesday. It's just that there are so many talented writers here on FS, it's kind'a hard to hold onto just six measly sixes. I've always felt that the more you review, the more you should be allowed.
    Anyhow, thanks for reviewing and commenting. As always I really appreciate it.

reply by BOO ghost on 20-Oct-2015
    Yep, that would be a great tip to send to fanstory. I think that stars ought to reflect how many fans you have. If you got a ton of fans like you -- six stars is basically an insult for so many good writers. For me, I got like, 7 fans, so, six nuggets is OK for me. Maybe there should be some type of contests, the winner of the contest in each bracket, novel/short story/poems gets an extra nugget for winning the contest. The nuggets seperate the good from the great and changes would complicate matters but seems like there should be some sort of compromise.

    Yours is a great idea too, Spooks. There are several ways they could do something about it. Whether they would is another story altogether.

reply by BOO ghost on 20-Oct-2015
    Yep, every thing is about the stars. But seems like a system based on the number of fans would be an idea... six nuggets go in a flash. Well, back to reviewing to get that certificate. I'm thinking about a horror flash fiction for you horrors, i'm behind. i even got another novel I'm tinkering with, so, i'm looking at two new novels coming. I don't know how you do it -- bet you don't get adequate sleep.

Well, this is just what my tummy needed LOL!!!! As usual, it is a insanely hideous write that totally terrorizes the reader with tangible imagery and just the right ending to let the nightmares flow. Well done and thank you (?) very much for sharing it.
