There's no place to escape to.
This is the last talk.
On the left.
Rise above your glids.
That's when the cannibalism started.
What was that?
The haunting of Hill House.
Have you been watching this?
I'm on episode three now.
I'm on episode four. I fucking love it.
Yeah. This is the thing.
Not so bad.
So sad.
Very sad.
It is sad.
But so sad.
I've never seen you break before.
This is what's going to break your soul?
No. It's the opposite.
It's mostly to be like,
quit with the wine
or with the bent neck lady.
I want her to have a fucking chainsaw or something.
I know that everyone's excited
that it's exploring vulnerability,
but then maybe it attacks me
in a way that makes me feel vulnerable,
which then means that it's effective.
But at the same time, it's like,
hey, I want to see some chainsaws, please.
Can I just put it in a comment section?
Can I give it a yelp?
I would say,
I would say perhaps you should grow your heart
a little bit like the Grinch,
but I think you already have an enlarged heart.
So don't do that.
You will die.
You're funny.
Thank you.
This inside story is everyone.
I am Ben Kissel.
Henry Zabrowski somehow being said.
Did you see the new Halloween, Henry?
I have not seen it yet.
Marcus, have you?
We're watching it tonight.
Okay.
Well, we have to talk about the new Halloween
when everybody sees it.
And everyone who is listening has to see it
because I don't want to have to hold it all in.
Okay.
All right.
Fantastic film.
Marcus Parks is also joining us today.
And we have an exciting episode.
It's all predicated upon you, the fan,
your tales, your creepy spaghetti.
That's what we're going to be reading today.
Immacaba matacati.
We're doing this again on Side Stories
because it's fun because now we have Side Stories.
It's like a sidecar filled with meat and beer.
And we're just juggling along the side
of the big train in its last podcast and left.
Can you feel our bodies just fucking slapping up and down
as we're just rolling above the tracks?
Right.
Can you get drunk?
Can you get drunk in a sidecar
or are you getting drunk in a car as a passenger?
Shit, man.
I mean, technically, it's a sidecar.
It's not a seat.
You're not a passenger in a passenger seat.
You're in a whole different mode of transportation.
I bet it's an interesting line.
You might take that all the way up to the Supreme Court, buddy.
And he will.
He will stand outside of the Supreme Court building
yet asking loudly if it is OK that it is legal
for him to drink in a sidecar.
Well, Henry, now that you have a mustache,
you have to get a motorcycle by law,
get one with a sidecar.
I will cram my body into it,
and I will have a couple of BLs and see if we get pulled over.
Yeah, buddy.
Hey, you know what?
I got a married man mustache.
I'm confident.
I'm feeling sexy.
I'm showing my chin.
I'm showing how my face melts completely into my neck
because I'm brave.
But I'm doing it for you,
and I'm doing it for the Halloween season.
It's a part of it.
It's a part of my costume, my Halloween costume
that you'll see eventually.
And I'm also trying to look.
I'm trying this.
And when I do get a motorcycle,
it's going to be one of those little ones
like the bears in Russia drive around in the circus.
Like the real tiny ones with my knees up.
You look like a tiny version of the red-headed guy
from Walking Dead.
Interesting.
Thank you.
Is that a thank you?
Which one?
You mean it?
He said Norbit.
Norbit?
Norbit.
Norbit, you're doing it.
I like it.
You're doing it.
All right.

back to being spooky you know the last couple weeks we do in West Memphis 3 we
were talking about drunk birds last week but we wanted on side stories this

heaviness all right if I can just imagine you are walking through a haunted

process I think his mustache wrote it to be fair all right well who wants to start
here we got a bunch of scary tales who wants to begin I will be doing it you
do okay this story is coming in from a fella his name is or it could be a gal
this name can go either way oh oh Alex Byron so thank you so much for
submitting Alex really excited to read this story it's called Big Fred so Fred
is a little bit larger I chose you guess all thank you yes I know and there's a
there's an undercurrent of disdain that you have no but that is fine no big deal
big Fred Mark looked after now I'm starting the story started okay big Fred
big Fred I got it how big you know my how big are you does he play basketball
you could also just call me Fred I have a lot of feelings I'm a real person big
friends talking very cool all right Mark looked after Mark looked after elderly
people and the disabled so Mark is a good guy who worked for an agency that
sent him all over the city one client he would always hear stories about was
this fella named big Fred big Fred this next sentence really kind of goes you
don't I you don't even really need this sentence it's kind of inferred in the
term big Fred big Fred was a large man with the mind of a child kind of like
blaster for master blast he had a rich family that paid the agency well Mark
had never met anyone who had looked after him so he assumed only very special
workers were chosen okay see one day Mark got into a petty argument with his
boss the next day he was worried he might get fired so he was surprised when
he got offered big Fred big Fred oh everything's going great it's easy his
boss told him it's an overnight shift just make sure he eats at 3 a.m. totally
normal time to eat for big Fred Mark arrived at the mansion and checked on
Fred who was lying in bed Mark watched TV until 3 a.m. and went into the bedroom
to ask Fred what he wanted to eat come closer Fred said come closer Fred said
no he's got a time okay okay yeah you know you know this was a commercial
edition I could see the casting director we would be like stop or they're
separate we love what we're doing we feel like maybe you could go for a
different choice come closer we'll get this one we'll get we'll get this one
and once we get this one we can try other options come closer Fred whispered
in the darkness Mark leaned in and suddenly he felt sharp teeth sink into
his arm he screamed but Fred only pulled him closer Fred ate him oh oh so
Mark was the meal yeah what an idiot and he was fired and he was fired I love
that story thank you Alex this is you know it's not easy working taking care
of the elderly nor the disabled so my hats off to those in that service
industry they are heroes on a daily basis and we should honor them more
absolutely I just thought you'd connect a big Fred thank you I know I yeah oh is
that what it was Henry was it because the character was big and likes to eat at
three o'clock in the morning yeah okay I got one for you did this one's like
let's do a true story yeah yeah this one's called vampire attack oh although
I'm not sure that we should say this person's name because he said that his
wife does not know the full extent of this story and she might be listening as
well so I don't want I don't want to but you know put this guy on notice I want to
blast him okay I like it all right this is a true story that happened to my now
wife and I we were staying at a small bed and breakfast in southern Vermont for
Valentine's Day we went out to dinner at a nice restaurant came back to the room
and settled in for the night deep into the night I had a very unusual dream I
can count on one hand the number of wet dreams I've had in my life and most of
them have been about strangers both that involve people I know have been very
unsettling experiences cool in this dream I was laying on a bed in a cheap
hotel and my wife was sitting across my legs sort of cowgirl style but we
weren't actually having sex she was just kind of teasing me okay although it
looked like her it looked like a although it looked like her it looked
like a goth version of her she was wearing a full fishnet body stocking
black lipstick and had a bunch of ear and facial piercings cool after after
teasing me for a bit she got angry and stormed out of the room I followed her
out onto the street and watched her walk away into the distance at that point I
woke up with the painfully hard erection I often wake up with morning
wood yep but this was seriously the hardest I'd ever been I was laying there
debating whether to sneak off to the bathroom to take care of it what what
does that mean when they go big dump slam it with a toilet lid a couple times
so it goes away I was debating on whether to take care of it but my wife sat
bolt upright gasping for breath after I calmed her down she told me she had a
nightmare that a girl with black hair was crouching over her and strangling her
this sent a chill down my spine I turned a light and the TV on and talked to her
until she calmed down and fell asleep the reason I felt a chill is that I'm
very interested in the supernatural and what had just happened to us strongly
reminded me of some of the stories I've read about early American vampires much
like witches early New Englanders very much believed in vampires but not the
Anne Rice type of vampire hmm they believed that a vampire was the restless
spirit of a dead person who stole life from the living slowly sickening them
and eventually killing them the vampire would come into your room while you
slept and crouch on your chest making it hard for you to breathe the more this
happened the sicker you would get until the vampire finally killed you and moved
on to another victim the house we were staying in was constructed in the 1770s
firmly in the time that vampire stories were spreading around New England and
the next morning the owner admitted when another guest questioned her that the
building was haunted oh although she didn't describe any vampire attacks I
was worried about the spirit following his home so I made very certain to not
leave anything in the rooms that belong to us just cut him driving in a zigzag
pattern you would never catch me bad my wife is already very afraid of ghosts so
I've never told her the full story of what happened that night you know lies
are never good for a relation no no no no lies build resentment yes next time
I'm looking into a romantic getaway I'll be looking a little deeper than the
Yelp review and that's why we've gone to sandals for the past 10 years a ghost
cannot arrive in a place where you're literally not allowed to wear shoelaces
but you have full Victorian wear at some point I love that story because I get
it yeah absolutely what do you what what part of it do you get the most is it
the waking up with a you know what well yeah that's I do feel like it's a part
of when like Natalie's out of town just me and Wendy in the bed is that now she
no longer cuddles on me she sleeps at the end of the bed if Wendy could talk
okay I'm not trying to do anything oh okay so I have this I'm gonna go a little
bit more intense with this one this is written by Jared Rand it is called
behind closed doors ooh day three thousand six hundred and fifty today marks
the tenth year of me locking myself down in this bunker hooray I sit down on the
couch in the living room with a bowl of stale cereal I've been saving for this
anniversary I ran out of dehydrated milk years ago so I have to deal with eating
it dry but after ages of eating vitamins meal supplements and whatever produce I
can manage to grow this is a welcome treat I flick on the TV and switch it
over from my computer screen to the satellite dish normally nothing shows
up but sometimes there'll be a rogue signal of an episode of cheers I don't
have downloaded today however was different I mean cheers is a great thing
to watch in a bunker because it never fails to bring a smile to the face well
speaking of crying while watching though I mean that the end of cheers is
heartbreaking it is you know really defeats it if you just have six or seven
beers well during then you just smile and you remember your memories yep then
you go from that you go from Ted dancing to norm by the end of it today
however was different every channel was broadcasting the same exact video of a
mushy old man standing on a stage in front of a murmuring crowd today's days
folks after ten long years we finally get to reveal the winner of the worldwide
hide-and-go-seek competition the man says arms pumping in the air voice echoing
through the loudspeakers the crowd erupts into cheers and applause I laugh at
the ridiculousness of all this a hide-and-seek competition I don't remember
any competition like that way back in 2018 who will be the winner of the
hundred million dollar grand prize ladies and gentlemen I hope you're ready when
the clock strikes noon the curtain will fall and reveal the victor counter down
with me folks 30 29 28 30 30 30 30 it's a lot of build a giant screen above a
huge curtain mounted down counted on the seconds 18 17 16 the crowd continued
something my gut told me this wasn't right how is it possible I didn't hear
about this 10 9 8 I put my bowl on the table and focus on the screen the
announcer looks so familiar I swear I know him but from where six five four my
chest started knotting up I stood up and walk closer to the TV I had an itching
feeling I knew who was under that curtain three two one the curtain
disconnected from the top and tumble down revealing a giant photo of myself
from ten years ago spark streamers and balloons shot up from above the crowd
congratulations may have it you have won the grand prize of one hundred million
dollars the man said all right god damn it fuck I screamed it ticked over the
table into the wall all you have to do to claim your winnings is to come out of
hiding me there will be a huge party in your honor the announcer shouted over
the sound of the crowds up or I can't believe I thought that this was a genuine
broadcast it's really that simple baby girl just open the bunker door and
step out into this nice bright sunshine I realize where I know him from it's been
so long since I've actually seen his face that I almost couldn't recognize him
it's my father open the door may see the sunlight his voice now cold and
commanding the crowd silent I stare at the TV fists clenched a fire raging
inside of my chest after all these years I've blocked them out of my mind I try
to forget what happened ten years ago to ignore that constant screaming just
outside the bunker to ignore the slamming and knocking on the heavy steel
door to ignore how my friends and family are paraded around like puppets to
manipulate me into going outside how every person outside this bunker isn't
even human they're not people anymore not even close may open the fucking door
open the fucking door dad shouts as loud as he can his voice cracking in his
face turning red from the strain spittle flies out of his mouth with every word
he shouts over the sounds of the crowd screaming the same I cover my ears I
can't listen to this open the fucking door open the fucking door open the
fucking I punched the TV as hard as I can the screen tumbles to the ground and
goes black but that awful noise still pours out of it I punch and I punch and
I punch until my knuckles are dripping with blood the bunker is quiet but
outside I can still hear the screams commanding me to open the door tears
well up in my eyes I curl up on the floor and sob into my blood-stained
carpet I can't go outside I would change too I need to keep that door locked to
keep the sunlight out that's what happens when your dad is Richard Dawson
always having a game show going on I was having a game show look at that all
right spooky tail indeed so it's kind of creatures outside reminds me of
a quiet place yeah that was a great great horror very good very quiet John
Krasinski definitely did not completely dough-faced fucking up like he did all
the stupid all this horrible the Patriot television yeah but you're just
very jealous he was a very successful actor the office is fine it's fun it's
fine well he actually directed a quiet place yes I believe you wrote it as well
he did very very they were having a baby why were they having a baby that whole
time I got a cushion side yeah I don't think so sometimes it just feels too good
too good all right well let's not get too crazy all right here we are now this
story it comes in from Sonya Garcia thank you so much for submitting your
tale it is a it's it's called the when to go short story the when to go I think
that's a creature it's a it is a native American creature of folklore I'm not
exactly sure what he does but I do believe he follows people in the forest
and he consumes that I love it eats people I think the when to go in folklore
I think he was a cannibalism cautionary tale like where they did like if you eat
people you become the when to go and also the when to go was the first person
that Wolverine ever fought no way back an incredible Hulk 181 no kid no kid
look at that it's the when to go has it ever been an RV has there ever been an
RV named it's we got the wind to win a bag because it's a bad it's a bad thing
you can't name something that's bad you can't name it like you can't name a
ship like the SS Ted Bundy because who's gonna get on it yeah or like the
four Chupacabra doesn't work absolutely all right so this is called again by
Sonya thank you so much when to go short story here is that tail I continue to
tread uphill so she's walking up a hill here the trail is disguised by snow of a
harsh winter so I make my own way very Fleetwood Mac of you I have not eaten in
days that is horrible I am the last of the survivors I hear a song in the wind
it calls to me is so I follow there isn't maybe that is Fleetwood Mac
Stevie Nix yes I will follow you ever you want to hear her scarves slapping
against the walls there isn't there is an ancient curse in these woods a
folklore a fever when you when you eat that which is forbidden you become an
evil in entity of these woods only folklore the song grows louder only
when the wind blows and soon as and soon I see a figure off in the distance
sitting in an ocean of cold I see him but he but he does not see me with the
wind howling like a banshee my being fills with the hope of being saved before
if I before I know it I'm upon the figure a man I'm Stevie Nix sometimes
they call me man they never call Stevie Nix she's got a woman here she's
gorgeous okay so this dude or perhaps a man he is hunched over naked Henry
Zabrowski from last podcast on the left though I'm having fun he is hunched over
naked how can this be looking closer I inspect his gray almost translucent
skin barely fitting over his bones Henry Zabrowski
so he's they inspect so she inspects the gray almost translucent skin barely
fitting over the bones he looks up exposing his stag like face I am
frozen in fear all of my fight has drained for me long ago as he grows in
size I sink to my knees he stands before me towering staring with two deep holes
where eyes should be he knows that I have eaten that is which forbidden I
give in I chose this fate there is an ancient curse in these woods a folklore
a fever and that is he the Wendigo all right so she ate the fruit and now the
Wendigo is gonna eat her I guess that's like a turducken for the Wendigo food
inside of food I like that I want to read more true stories of the Wendigo
remember we did cry monsters of Native American history did we do that already
I think yeah I think Wendigo was a part of that I'm pretty sure it was yeah that's
good Wendigo's a Canadian monster oh yeah oh so the Wendigo shows up you like
I see what you're doing there but you're doing it wrong this is how you want to
do it I can see you're over there you're trying to eat a person yet it's fine if
you want to do it like that if you want to eat a person like that it's fine but
you know there's a better way to do it I do it but first of all I gotta go to my
cabin in my cottage I gotta be up there for five or six days a week and then I
can come back for that one day a week and teach you how to eat them better I
will say I don't like the idea of a Canadian cryptid because I don't like
a cryptid that apologizes I just assumed the Wendigo especially when they don't
apologize to me when you're eating me just eat me don't it because I know you're
not sorry cuz you're not really sorry you're not sorry never sorry all right
that ladies and gentlemen is a little insight into our hidden resentment of
one bartender yes one bartender in Canada and that weird cab driver who
just ate cherries pits and all for 30 minutes still ways not want not I saw
another dude this is another thing I'm this is not this is not slam Canada
segment but it was a man in a maple leaf shirt at Disney World I swear to God
was did that thing where he was fully washing his face at his bathroom in at
the bathroom in Disney World the big public about this wash in his face he
takes off his shirt he washes his chest so this is not a grey-owned bus station
his world then he proceeds to spit into his own hands and look at it like it
going just and daising into it like his eyeballs have little fucking
microscopes in them so that he could see like a jeweler's glass on and then
wash his hands and went back to the fucking gen pop in the middle of Disney
World maybe he was looking for blood or yikes this and that I got up next it is
from Tanner Paulson it's called thin arm very nice the night it started I woke
up in a panic I heard a single knock on my bedroom door I live alone I called out
but got no response I sat up all night watching the door but another knock
never came the second night I locked my door before I went to bed and somehow
I was able to fall asleep again I was awoken by a single knock I sat up and
looked at the door eyes wide as I watched too terrified to say anything the lock
turned followed by the doorknob the door creaked open a few inches and I saw a
hand rise over the top of my door it had eight spindly fingers with long grey
nails it waved at me for almost five minutes it stopped suddenly before it
slithered its way up and over the door into my room now coming over the top of
my door was a long thin pale arm it reached all the way down to the floor
after hanging there for a few minutes it lifted up and waved at me again it then
pointed at me then at the doorknob back at me the doorknob me the doorknob the
thin arms eight-fingered spider-like hand lay flat with its palm up it curled
its fingers repeatedly into its palm it was beckoning me I couldn't move couldn't
speak I could hardly breathe then it held its arm up as of checking watch it
waved me again and slithered back up and over the top of my door the door closed
and locked behind it for the third night I installed a bolt lock this thing
whatever ghastly creature was attached to that thin arm could somehow unlock my
door I hoped it couldn't do the same to the bolt unfortunately it could oh after
hearing the knock I had never fallen asleep the bolt unlatched itself just
after that the door unlocked and creaked open a few inches the arms slithered
its way in and waved to me before pointing from me to the knob it beckoned me
to the door once again before falling in my floor for three hours it drummed its
fingers on the wooden floor I was too terrified to do anything at all except
stare I occasionally looked at the clock wishing that the morning would come the
arm eventually slithered its way out of my room the door closed and locked and
so did the bolt I slept for a couple of hours before my alarm went off I knew I
had to do something I had to deal with whatever this thing was on the fourth
night I didn't lock the door I waited in front of it pistol in hand as soon as I
heard the knock I flung the door open in front of me was nothing but an empty
dark hallway there was nothing there at all was it done with me had I held out
for long enough had it moved on to torture somebody else no I laid back
down in the bed and almost drifted off to sleep when I heard and felt a knock
from beneath my bed I opened my eyes but didn't move I saw the arm lifting in the
air above me coming from under my bed it waved just like it always did it padded
me lightly on the head yes yes good sleeping boy yes I wanted to scream but
I couldn't I wanted to get up and run away but I couldn't the arm wrapped
around me I was suddenly overcome with exhaustion I fell asleep until my alarm
went off as I opened my eyes the arm lifted up waved to me and went back
under my bed I got up and jumped as far off my bed as I could and I ran into the
hall I got in the shower and noticed scratches all over my stomach and chest
they weren't deep enough to draw blood but they stung when the hot water hit
them luckily I had clothes in the dryer and didn't have to go back to my room
I got ready for work and walked out to my car I heard a knock just as I was
getting into it it was coming from my bedroom window which was right above my
driveway the eight-fingered hand was there waving I never went back to my
house that night I rented a hotel room anxious to get a good night's rest I
slept well that night however when I woke up and walked into the bathroom I
saw deep scratches on my chest they weren't random scratches like from the
night before there were words jaggedly carved into me I looked out at the bed
and noticed that the blankets and sheets were covered in dried blood I
looked back into the mirror and reread what it said you let me in you can't
leave me I can't leave you no matter where I sleep on the couch in my car
even in my office the arm is there after a few days of trying out new places
to sleep I awoke to find a new message carved into me sleep in your bed or I
will make it so you never wake now I lie awake every night until I hear the knock
from under my bed the arm waves and then wraps around me I fall asleep right
after it goes back under my bed in the morning I always notice fresh scratches
on my chest and stomach as I shower often they're on my legs and arms too
just the other night I saw teeth marks on my shoulder whatever is under my bed
more than just its arm is coming out when I sleep I warn you if you hear a
single knock on your bedroom door don't open it when the arm slithers its way
over the top of your door try your best to ignore it put your pillow over your
head hide under the covers and wait for it to go I'm not sure if it'll leave you
for good but it's better to leave it at your door above all hope and pray that
the thin arm with its eight-fingered hand doesn't knock at all yeah honestly
though I gotta say it's kind of Adams family you can have your own little thing
there but they've got an arm well I know it's an arm thing it maybe it's maybe
thing as a baby maybe that's a thing's father maybe it is I mean a finger
blasted a just a floating pussy I have no idea how arm intercourse
works but I would say it's kind of nice you go to bed with the Cobra clutch
every night it seems like all you I mean other than the scratches I would say
can you not scratch me so much please don't scratch don't stop scratch stop
scratching messages leave a pen and paper next to the table maybe I use a pen and
paper hey I know that you're disembodied arm from some hell dimension but let's
get a tablet so this is scary only because it there's there's a there's a
scariness to this true story that something about it I don't know what it
is it's kind of got an uncanny valley feeling to it feeling to it it's my
Allison Kenan Frink the man in the corner when I was a kid I would go to my
parents room at night to sleep in their bed this drove them crazy of course but
I insisted my mom would always asking why I wanted to sleep with them and my
answer was always the same I had a bad dream this was a lie I didn't have bad
dreams I had bad wake-ups I would wake up in the middle of the night and be
afraid to open my eyes because I knew what I would see I knew he would be
sitting there in the corner of my room on top of my desk when I finally got up
to courage to glance over I was always terrified I was always also right you
was short about four four and a half feet tall he had a thin pointy beard and
wore a wide brim hat with the feather in it he never said anything and never
moved it just sat there looking at me in smiling like some sort of creepy little
leprechaun the worst part was that I got no relief he followed me to my
grandparents house and even to a friend slumber party my grandmother's he would
just sit on their hamper next to the door I would close my eyes and run out
of the room crying terrified that he would grab me at the party I was so
afraid that I pulled my sleeping bag up over my head and I peed myself then one
day after years of torment it just stopped this time went on it convinced
myself that had maybe I'd been dreaming all those times and this was just silly
schoolgirl fears and then one summer I was home from college my mom and I were
up late talking and somehow got into the topic of scary shit my mom says yeah
when I was a kid I was always afraid that Rumpel still skin was gonna get me I
used to think he was sitting in my room watching me sleep I apparently turned
pale cuz my mom started to freak out asking me what was wrong so I told her
I told her what the years of my torment by my leprechaun I told her about that
hat his beard his creepy little grin my mother started crying she had no idea
she too had convinced herself that it had all been a dream we sat there crying
and hugging each other asking questions we couldn't answer like why had this
happened to us and why were we the only ones and last night I woke up it was my
daughter crying again she said that she had a bad dream
rumpel still skin is back rumpel still skin in the house what that now rumpel
still skin what was his whole thing he would he would do something rumpel
still skin is he wanted the the gold gold right yeah to spin the hair from the
gold and then he would get the daughter he was horny and he was horny he we had
the same fucking me and rumpel still skin had the same goals we want money and
we wanted a hot wife that was I don't know what's that I don't know if that was
rumpel still skins go many fucking eyes of the prize man he knew exactly what he
did he do like spider webs did he do like he's like the goal is gold and then
he just spider webbed out and figured out how to get it who's that like the
color what color is your parachute is that you read that we've gone over this
this is from when we did the iceman episodes I read that business book called
what color is your parachute and mine is still dookie brown that's very good
okay this one comes in from a fella his name is Kyle Peters and I really like
this but this is a scary one all right and the next one I want to read is
gonna be a little bit more light-hearted okay okay but this one's truly scary
also just think about this you was thinking about the leprechaun one
imagine a little man just showed up in your room like how terrible like we joke
about it being seeing a leprechaun but if you actually saw a leprechaun in your
room you'd have to go to a mental institution I don't know man because
again I just feel like you can be friends with it don't take its gold no
leprechauns are notoriously greedy yes but I don't know if you don't mess with
it like for example the leprechaun if no one ever messed with it it would just be
a little buddy are they greedy or are they thrifty I see haha interesting
interesting is it about money management or is it about wanting every piece of
gold that you can get your hands on well no they don't want any more my
understanding of leprechaun solely from the leprechaun series is he just wants
his 100 pieces of gold yeah no more no less that's right just don't mess with
it so in that way I would say thrifty not greedy all right okay all right this
one comes in from a fellow his name is Kyle Peters and it begins daddy daddy now
there's exclamation marks there so you do it so good you got you've been
reading the other side that creepy possible the side you're getting you're
getting to be a tight reader you really sell it scare these people daddy daddy
I groan looking at the clock I see it's 2 45 a.m. what could my daughter
possibly want at this time of night I roll out of bed body aching I worked
12 hours today now I've got to know that's not fair it's been two years since
her mother left I work all day then I'm then I'm groaning when she wants to see
me tied up my robe I make my way down the hall so the mother is gone it's been
two years but I'm working 12 hours a day here okay so this is the story what
we're doing is this is protracting 20 years into your future it's very
difficult to work 12 hours a day and then you get woken up by a daddy daddy
okay we got it so I walk into a room what is it honey I asked quietly walking
through her bedroom door I can't help but smile my little girl with a scared
frown motioning for me to come closer I take the steps towards her bed thinking
maybe I'll take a long weekend and we'll go on a trip there's a there's a
monster in my closet daddy she whispers hello boys I give her a sympathetic
nod since her mother left she's been acting out I shake my head mostly at
myself as I realize her fear of the real world has spilled over into her
nightmares there's no monster baby monsters aren't real the idea of monsters
is actually what's scary let me show you I walk over to her closet door which is
a jar as I push it open my skin starts jumping my breath tightens in my lungs
there in my daughter's closet looking much more frightened is my daughter daddy
there's a scary girl in my bed then I hear two feet touch the floor behind me
I tell you what if daddy goes back to bed and he is scared by a little girl just
sitting in that bed I would be doubly scared both legally and that's a double

ones that are really creepy but this one nailed a type of four-chan energy that
we really missed I love it so much the priest is fiddling with a stupid dick
when the phone went off and the priest said hello please we need you here
please hurry said the phone and the priest said okay so then the priest put
down his floppy beanhole and stopped thinking about young boys for once his
miserable fucking life the priest went to the old folks home and the nurse said
oh thank god and the priest said where is the sorry fuck stick nurse said it's
old man Jenkins priest and he needs your help show me him said the fucking
priest and so he went and met old shit Jenkins and there he was possessed by a
demon just like how the priest is possessed by it's whore with horny
secrets so be fucking dork said the little old boy Jenkins but it wasn't
really Jenkins it was the demon and the demon fucking men it the scared little
priest held up his Bible and the demon inside titty balls Jenkins was like show
me what he got and the priest was like the power press can big power cross
compels you wherever the fuck that means it was fucking embarrassing so when the
priest said help me God but God couldn't hear him cuz God found his old N64 in a
box in the garage it was busy losing a race and Mario cart the priest thought
he'd be a badass and pulled out some holy water so then the demon laughed and
pulled out his cock it was like success cock and the priest was afraid of it
because it was old and lumpy and he was only used to fresh boy bubble gum
cocks the priest started choking on the demons horny flopper and the demon
loved it so much he shot exegism everywhere fucking bailed out a milk
bag Jenkins body the priest got covered in chunky green cum and the cold sperm
shot out his nose and his ears and he swallowed so much that the demon was
now in him and he yelled oh fuck and then the nurse came behind him and slid
his fucking throat just like they planned and he bled out like a pig on
their wedding night and then the pedophile went to burn in hell for all
the boys he ruined and the demon came with them and the demon and Satan did
their awesome secret handshake to celebrate a job well done hell yeah
yeah I was just on Dana Perino show on Fox News I don't know if that's an
appropriate story for someone like me it is really good very powerful very
powerful thank you Hans Schrader very good work very good Hans Hans Schrader so
I mean really this is a tale though of of proper justice being done a proper
justice yeah yeah it's sort of like the movie sleepers yeah it's a lot like
sleepers it's also a just suckin dicks yeah there was that aspect a lot of dig
suckin a lot of dick so a author named Rachel Greenhoe sent us some creepy
bosses that she had written and submitted to reddit and these are all
super super short and great so I want to just hit three real quick we got
ourselves a triple shot yeah yeah yeah triple shot five years ago my sister
vanished there was a month-long manhunt the FBI got involved dogs helicopters
everything they could do I'd let them to all the places we had played they never
found a body this morning a young woman appeared on my doorstep she claims to be
my sister same crooked smile same blonde hair same scar on her wrist from
falling off the monkey bars my parents are convinced but I'm not I cut her up
before I buried her a day at the lake what about sharks mama sharks only live
in saltwater what about alligators mama this is a man-made lake there are no
monsters in there now go swim mommy will watch he was near the center of the lake
idly floating in his inner tube when he felt the tug a gentle tug at first then
a terrible pressure pulling him down silt and water filling as long as he
tried to call for his mama she heard but there wasn't anything she could do
she can only watch the foundations of the lake give away into a huge mouth like
sinkhole the kid is dead and this is grandma after my grandma died I used to
pray to God to bring her back now is the masses of grotesque decaying pinkish
gray bodies break through my final barricade I see one of them is wearing
her blue and yellow dress grandma comes back if I asked God to bring my grandmother
back just one time he would happily do so imagine what she's doing to that poor
bastard get her out of here all right very great I love those really short
ones I love a certain art to making it super sure especially with the flips in
them they do really good job it's very oh Henry like what is that oh Henry the
candy boy master of the surprise ending to the short story the oh Henry award is
given to the most surprising short story each year why is it called the oh
Henry author his name is oh his name is ornthal Henry but that name is not popular anymore or
and thought that's a guy like or and thought it sounds like a toothache okay
that's OJ's name it is or just name see ornthal James Center oh Henry's first
name is not ornthal what is it oh my gosh it's not oh my gosh it's not a name
it's a pen name his name isn't actually oh Henry his real name is William
Sidney Porter William Sidney Porter sounds like a writer's name yeah but you
need a pen name now he sounds like a candy bar he's the only person there were
different rules yeah but William Sidney Porter that's an author oh Henry is the
person that you kind of already was slowly as they eat the bacon I really can't
even say he's not author because oh Henry is the author no one knows who William
Porter is weird choice do you think OJ would have killed them all those people
if he if he went by ornthal if you went by ornthal I think he tried going by
ornthal for a little bit but people wouldn't let him really ah okay not good
we should have let him do that maybe he would have been last year wearing an
ass scots maybe things would have worked out bad yeah maybe knows maybe he'd be in
the Senate okay this is from a fella named Austin counts and we will be in
Austin Texas coming up here in the very near future yeah good luck awesome
good plug Austin counts okay as a I laid in my bed staring at the ceiling I
rolled over to look at the clock 3 a.m. God why can't I get to sleep I stare
past my crack my cracked open door out into the dark hallway suddenly I hear
the front door open shut then lock I hear the jingle of my dog's collar as he
as she quickly gets up and starts barking I lay under my covers frightened
it's 3 a.m. mom and dad are fast asleep who could that be I quickly hear my dog
sparking muffled and hear a limp body hit the floor I hear my parents door
creak open my parents awake and once they realize something's wrong begin to
scream they too are cut short by two loud gunshots I again hear two limp
lifeless bodies hit the floor I'm shaking and crying gripping my blankets
over my head try not to breathe I slowly hear heavy footsteps making its way
out of my parents door down the hallway near my room I slowly hear my door
begin to creak open then my dick fell off
that was the that was the biggest surprise ending to the history of creepy
pasta that's the old Henry Henry indeed change it to oh Austin great stuff
mine is this next one it's by Julian Levy another Brooklyn guy right here
nice Brooklyn yeah the ad that forget about yeah pizza pizza pizza is in
Brooklyn you know what we're doing this story is called the witching hour ever
look in the barback asked sweating holding a box into which the bartender
loaded dewy beer bottles in what the bartender ass she followed her co-workers
line of sight the hole it seemed not just to swallow light but to ward it off
the bar had been a bakery for three generations before the fire the hole
had been the mouth of the bread oven now it was just a pitch black breach in the
brick basement wall that nobody had ever bothered to seal a pipe dripped
condensation mice scratched in the wall another bottle clinked into the box
just rat shit and ash in there she said hell he had a restaurant a manager at
show needs said that just rat shit Nash in the hole that's where we keep our
beef that's what she said dismissing him as she wiped perspiration from her neck
let's go waves of bodies pitched voices bumping music the night wore on things
ebbed it too so she cut the bar back he had a shift drink they chatted he left
now it was witching hour dollar off beers but eager patrons drummed their
fingers on the bar and waited where was the bartender she stood alone in the
basement sweating back to the room hands on either side of the hole staring into
the dark unable to say exactly why she wiped her forehead stood on her tip
toes squinted into the cave-like blackness how deep did it go she put
her head in there was stillness quiet dry air that carried just a whisper of
yeast upstairs some patrons waited others walked away resigned stories jokes
lamentations flirtations all continued throbbing dripping desire warm and wet
pouring sloppily from mouths spilling onto the floor meanwhile inside the hole
there was nothing endless nothing blackness flat simple cool the further
in she crawled the more she found peace and the distance behind her the holes
mouth the basement was just a pinhole of light now soon there was breath
alongside hers and whispers we are not strangers here she curled up in the dark
in the peace head resting in the crook of her arm and waited for sleep
cool sounds kind of peaceful yeah go wherever one knows my name yeah the big
hole full of rat shit and ass yeah we're the demons friends yeah I tell you
what man I really miss being spooky yeah oh yeah I really do that's a good
point like I miss ghosts now that we've been doing like we're not gonna bust this
week's episode but it's like I really miss like I don't know getting tingles
again you know downstairs you should like that television show that you're
having feelings while watching the haunting of Hill House it's very good
to also watch trick-or-treat last night it's a really good we should do next
week we'll do a roundup of horror movies kissle for actual Halloween because
side stories comes out on Halloween so you can have a little guide to what to
watch tomorrow night if you are like us sometimes where I like to be inside on
Halloween and there is some a really some really great horror films we've
been watching this Halloween there there's they're out there they are great
year for horror all right so this is a story by Ben Albert Swift ooh I've been
thinking about doing it since last Halloween I put a lot of research in I
got a paper route so every morning I do a dry run in my head I picked the houses
at random then I see how I feel about it if it feels right it goes into the
route till it feels wrong I took out 58 Main Street because it's where Mrs.
Knight lives and I really want to get away with it and not get caught it's two
weeks from Halloween I pick up my costume I don't put too much effort into
it I want something I can dump quickly so I settle for a black cape and ghoul
mask doesn't really look scary in fact it looks pretty stupid but that's what I
like about it I stopped doing the dry runs as Halloween got closer I got a
bus and walked a little bit then bought my supplies from a shop I'm pretty
certain nobody I know will use I wore a baseball cap and pulled it down to cover
my face just to be sure I got a full shop so not to draw attention to the eggs
and toilet paper and other stuff I got doubts about the big day my stomach was
in flips all morning almost forgot about doing it but next year I'll be 13 and
then I'll be too old to get away with trick-or-treating the stomach flips kind
of felt good as well I sat through school made fake promises to meet my
friends and hang out my dad mom or in when I get in and asked me what I'm
doing and I tell them I'm probably just gonna go around the bills or maybe just
stay home and play fortnight child stuff I don't I don't know what fortnight is
but it seems it's a video game yes it's a video game it's very popular hold a
McNally plays it and he's well over 12 yes yes he does is a big boy big boy big
guy they make a big show about how it's Halloween and they end up but I think
they're happy that I'm not going out and causing trouble I hang out at home for a
bit and when the parent and kid group stop coming around I give it half an
hour that I put my costume and supplies in my school bag I tell my mom that I'm
off the bills and my mom I'm off the Georges I go ahead and get my costume
out of my bag and change so I can blend in first house I see y'all are his
friends like old men Bill and George just in the UK 12 year olds I don't think of
Bill and George just like names that are common the UK is bringing back Edward
Norton and all those words yeah okay the first house I get with toilet paper I
enroll it before I throw it the first throw land short but the third hits the
sweet spot in the tree and it goes everywhere I run away screaming laughing I
can't even run properly it's so funny the second house is even better I run
into the house knock on the door and then dash an old man comes to the door
and he looks really confused and he closes the door I knock again this time
he's really angry and he's shouting and swearing I do it one more time this time
he's waiting and he tries to grab me but I'm too quick I run away and I'm howl
God this is gonna be better than I expected I was gonna leave until like the
fourth house of my mischief route mischief route before I did the real
thing but I can't wait I'm too hyper and excited I get the eggs out of my
backpack my aim is brilliant I hit the Mercedes right in the windscreen the
next to hit the car as well to top it off the second eggs a double yoker then I
get that's a big one then I get the living room window that grabs her
attention she's up and out of the house and she looks at her car and she sees me
with the eggs I have never seen anybody so angry her face is bright red
spittle is coming out of the corners of her mouth she's up in my face and she
slapped the egg box out of my hands then she slaps me in the face it's really
hard it stings my cheek I can feel tears running down my face she's marching me
into her house she's telling me she's ringing the police as the door shuts
behind me I'm so excited I can barely think earlier in the year George showed
me this ISIS video I felt funny looking at the blood but like a good funny and
that's when the idea came to me I tried other things like cutting myself and
that was fine for a bit but then it just wasn't enough this was a lot better
there was so much of it I splashed against my skin got into my mouth and
tasted gorgeous like copper she was dead but that didn't stop me I kept at her
body for a while then I tried to use the knife to saw off her head I tried
really hard I got halfway through her neck when the knife snapped screamed
and frustration and got a glimpse of myself in her hallway mirror I managed
to get control myself I put my costume into a plastic bag then I put it back
into my backpack I ran out of there laughing I didn't think anybody saw me
and I was beyond caring I jogged for a little bit then I took out my phone and
rang bill through the plastic bag with my costume and the big bins out the back
of the asda spent the night playing FIFA and I kept seeing her body and giggling
at myself Bill kept asking me what was funny and saying how cool my makeup look
how realistic it was I can't wait for next Halloween maybe I don't have to
Yikes bill get out of there go hang out with George smoke stokies
my god very interesting all right the first the to the first of all I mean
that the toilet paper that that's classic classic classic classic um but
have you been egged as an adult I well yes we were eggs no not as an adult but
there were some egging going on there was a few going back and forth in my
neighborhood it wasn't I wasn't privy to it I was but we got egg twice and then I
think my older brother was doing some egging or something was going on I got
hit pretty hard with some eggs a couple times and I was a kid but that was you
know that was all in good fun I was on 24 years old the last time I was egged by
a group of 15 children actual children it was me and Eddie it was me and Eddie
walking down the street and like that was when I was the big fat and Eddie's a
big boy and they showed no mercy and they covered us in eggs and we were
supposed to go to a Halloween party where there were girls at the time and we
got covered in eggs and then we just had to go back to his apartment and drink
Budweiser's and listen to see girl alone well it was nice yes really fun
no we did a lot of the toilet paper but I don't think kids are allowed to do
that anymore no and we used to do stuff with mailboxes you cannot touch the
mailboxes anymore oh no no no I had a friend in high school that got a
felony charge because he blew up the math teacher's mailbox hell yeah that's a
little intense yeah that was a bit it was a bad decision right yeah he said
fastly well admit that that was a bad decision hey man we gotta learn a
sticker I can't remember what happened with the felony charge I think it
followed him I'm not sure huh okay yeah he didn't go to prison that's good
that's good all right this story it's coming in from a fella named Nathan
Roberts thank you so much for writing in okay in the 20 years now the story is
beginning thank you 20 years no problem in the 20 years I've been working with
animal rescue organizations I've seen it all number one thank you for working
with animal rescue organizations we need more people working in those positions
so this person seen it all he goes on tragic cases extreme neglect and cruelty
showing the true depravity of man toward beast and I would say the man is the
beast and the dog it's not a man but it's it's dog you should we should read
the satanic Bible and you'll see that one of the tenements all about how we're
just above dogs we're just actually even more vicious than animals so we'll talk
about this later on but there's there's what there's time to cover this man say
we're about dangerous animal we're not above dogs because I have to pick up
Puffin's poop every single day and I'm just a servant yeah Sam and Georgie yes yep I've
seen dogs and cats that have been brought back but from near death some
riddled with parasites are completely unkept with feces met with feces
mattered matted into their fur and nails overgrown to the point the nails are
digging into the bottom of their feet some of the most tragic cases that
involves starvation with animals so so thin they are barely able to stand as
their withered bodies are now a little more than skin pulled tight over a frail
skeleton in the arms of immediately thinking of in the arms of the angels
don't make me hard because you know what Sarah McLaughlin does to my body I
don't know how you have that crossover in your head because now it's all ASPCA
for me none none none not all of these cases are our instances of cruelty many
lonely people decide to keep pets for companionship as they shed their lives
of human relationships these owners from time to time pass away in isolation not
to be discovered until their bodies liquefy and leak into their neighbors
apartments in a shower of putrid red ooze their pets are trapped without food
or water and faith and face a horrifying choice cats will usually eat their owners
almost immediately it's not uncommon to find a lonely woman who has passed away
in a home full of cats completely disfigured the lips are almost always
eaten first in fact most of the soft parts of the face are the first thing
to go dogs are dogs are a bit more loyal it's not uncommon for a dog to lay by
their owner and slowly starve to death rather than eat their beloved master but
not all dogs display this loyalty recently after an elderly man missed her
Henderson missed a lunch date with his daughter she stopped by his home to check
in on him inside the home she discovered her father laying on his back
eviscerated his intestines had pulled out into his intestines had pulled out
into a steaming hot pile of gore with some lengths broken and chewed his
pallid face was barely recognizable as his cheeks lips and eyes had been eaten
off his face leaving behind a vacant and horrified expression filled with
gnashed teeth his fingers had been gnawed exposing the glistening cartilage and
bones beneath with some completely separated from his hand tiny blood
soaked paws printed prints dotted the home leading to the culprit of the
macabre scene a small dog a dog was soaked red ambitious blood with clotted
fragments decorating his fur he was found sitting on the kitchen floor chewing
chewing on what was left of the man's fingers the coroner's report indicated
the man had died from a blunt forced trauma to the head a little over two
hours before being found the dog bowl was still filled with food they say that
once a dog gets a taste of human flesh he craves it it's probably part of
their genetics built in from the time before wolves were domesticated into
dogs it's lying dormant but once it's been reactivated it's all the dog will
crave the dog will be waiting for the next opportunity for a human to let his
guard down just enough than it so that they can pounce I tried to warn the
shelter not to adopt the animal but my warnings were not heated several
shampoos had removed the reddish pink several shampoos had removed the reddish
pink tint from its white fur with mr. Henderson's blood circling down the
porcelain wash basin into the drain leaving behind a seemingly cute perky
animal that few would recognize as a potential ticking time bomb it's too
late now though the dog was just adopted the new owner was not warned about the
animals past he seemed content excited posting photographs of the small animal
on his Instagram account it's only a matter of time before his life comes to
an abrupt end in a flash of teeth claws and fur I've heard he named the dog
pop it I saved you pop it I was good to you pop yeah all right scary stuff thank
you for the story buddy my last one is called what friends are for yeah by Tom
from Santa Cruz okay my life used to be fairly complicated but now I have just
one problem actually I suppose I have two problems although the second is
relatively minor I'm referring of course to this stupid mouth stick stylist that
I'm using awkwardly type out this document the official record of the sad
ending to one short life the voice to text functionality on this laptop isn't
particularly useful since my broken jaw is still wired tightly shut from the
accident and all the medications tend to make my speech slurred there's a real
pain in the ass and I feel ridiculous but this won't take very long I assure
you I intend to keep it brief frankly I don't have the energy nor the desire to
tell this story in great detail so I'm afraid you'll have to settle for the
short version here I think you'll find that to be enough it was a Friday night
just three weeks ago and I was driving home from work in the pouring rain when
I got a call from my friend Adam inviting me to meet up with him and some of his
friends from work in an Irish pub near his office in White Plains I was tired
as hell and really just wanted to get home to relax for the night I also knew
some of Adam's co-workers who would likely be there and not all of them were
my idea of a good time so I hedged a bit at first as usual Adam told me I had to
quote-unquote move on and quote-unquote get out there to begin the long slow
process of healing emotionally and putting Allison behind me I assured him
that my deceased fiance had nothing to do with it I was just tired from a long
work week and the weather was lousy the couch in my living room was calling for
me and the next game was set to tip off in less than an hour
okay and they're having a pretty good season so far pretty good I didn't
explain that the twice weekly therapy sessions I have been quietly attending
for the last two months were starting to help me come to terms with my guilt
over Allison's drug overdose at the New Year's Eve party in Atlantic City six
months ago the most tragic event of my entire life garnered some brief
attention in our local news at the time because it fit in neatly with the
national opioid epidemic that is currently making headlines all across
America Scarsdale's daughter's doctor dies of oxy overdose they say fear sells
newspapers and evidently this story was scary because it had the whole it could
happen to you angle fuck those newspapers it did happen to me anyway I
figured I'd tell Adam about my therapy sessions soon enough I wasn't embarrassed
it just wasn't something that I enjoyed talking about but Adam was a lifelong
friend who would do anything for me and I've rarely kept any secrets from him so
despite the lousy weather and my desire to just get home and kick my feet up for
the night I decided to stop by the pub to have a few beers besides I knew I had
nothing to eat in the fridge at home so I figured I could chow down a burger and
watch the first half of the Knicks game and then head on home in time for the
second half I remembered asking Adam what time he was planning to get there
just as I was merging onto I-95 and suddenly there was a tremendous flash
of light and a violent explosion that consumed my entire world when I woke
sometime later I was lying in a hospital bed floating in and out of
consciousness on a heavy cocktail of narcotics that had been pumped into my
veins to alleviate intense pain I learned later that somehow the sleep-deprived
long-haul truck driver who hit me didn't just run right over my little sports car
and I'm a net miraculously survived what probably should have been a fatal
accident laying there in the operating room I remember that I couldn't really
feel my left leg and I was trying to explain this concern to a nurse when the
head surgeon arrived at this point I was lucid enough to be able to see the
people moving around me and understand some of the words they were saying from
behind their light blue surgical masks as they hurried about dutifully attending
to their myriad tasks at some point I also noticed their deference to the
tall man who walked quietly among them asking short clipped questions in a
detached fashion when he finally stood over me and stared down into my face I
recognized the eyes above his mask but could not place them then he spoke and
I knew who my surgeon was I think we're ready he said for everyone in the room
to hear then he leaned down and in a near whisper meant just for me said you
have no idea how happy I am to see you here tonight Sean he quickly moved away
and from the other side of the bed an anesthesiologist leaned in and asked me
to follow his fingertip with my eyes he began to count backwards from 10 while
slowly moving his index finger back and forth before my face I tried to say
something I think I even tried to scream but my world quickly went dark and I
learned what happened next when I awoke in the hospital bed the next day with
both of my arms and legs amputated the deeply sad and remorseful hospital
administrator and the somewhat more detached and stoic attorney who
accompanied her to my bedside could offer no logical reason why the surgeon
who had operated on me had unnecessarily removed my limbs nor why he had
returned to his office to take his own life with a legal injection immediately
afterwards she did explain to me that he had lost his only daughter about six
months earlier and apparently he had suffered a severe mental break that day
they hadn't put it all together yet and I didn't bother to tell her that I
needed no explanation I just laid there with my eyes closed waiting for them to
leave at Allison's funeral I could see that her father was a broken man when he
refused to shake my hand to speak with me I knew that he would never forgive me
for what had happened to his only child we hadn't come in contact with one
another since that gray day at the cemetery but a random series of events
delivered me right to his ER that rainy Friday night and he took full advantage
of the opportunity that presented itself to be honest I had completely
forgotten that he was a surgeon a doctor from Scarsdale to be exact maybe this
was all meant to be maybe this is the price I was destined to pay for Allison's
life I don't know the universe works in strange ways but now I'm just waiting
for Adam to get here when he does I'll tell him what happened then I'll tell
him that I have no desire to live this way not for one more day remember how I
said that Adam was an old friend who would do anything for me I suppose I'll
soon find out the truth of that what good is it to have friends if you can't
rely on them when you need them but I'm not worried I trust Adam I know it'll
be tough for him and I might have to paint a pretty stark and brutal picture
to illustrate what life will be like for me as a once active and athletic 26 year
old who is now quadruple amputee but I'm pretty sure that he'll come through for
me in the end after all what are friends for cool yeah I mean I gotta say
stick around though because they're making all the technology now you'll
just be a cyborg stick around yeah there's some cool stuff yeah don't don't
just don't just end it all with it it's only been a week it's honestly we're
gonna get skeletons it's gonna work out we're gonna figure this shit out I
mean I swear to God I was watching there was a real sports thing on the WLM
double amputees with the legs you know that you they got these they got these
things now they put on the feet they're faster than ever my god my goodness yeah
man and faster than me and I'm the fastest man within 10 feet I know all
right so this is my final one all right this is goes out to the fans I'm
certain by Michael Cahill Cahill and I think you'll like it Kessel okay the
secret ingredient the lights in the boardroom were flickering subtly despite
the you're right puffing farted the lights in the boardroom were flickering
subtly despite the ominous lighting the meeting continued on so agreed that by
May 2008 our new creation will be on the shelves of every major grocery and
liquor store in the country the gathered the gathered executives not at an
agreement murmuring among themselves at their plan long in preparation was
finally seeing the light of day to a round of applause from the gathered
executives Budweiser CEO Carlos Brito triumphantly announced Bud Light Lime
will be our best-selling beverage of all time no sometimes later after the
executives of the meeting had gone home to their mansions of their sport cars
Brito stayed behind he enjoyed in roaming the darkened halls of the
company's main brewery in fact it was only at times like these that he could
visit the company's secret beer lab to inspect the specimen 2008 had been a
tough year for Budweiser the financial crisis had cut into their profits even
a recession people have to drink but they didn't want to drink Budweiser
Bud Light Lime would change all of that Brito hoped in fact he had pinned his
future on the beverage's success if Bud Light Lime flopped when it hit shelves
next week he would be sunk ah finally murdered Brito as he came up to the secret
beer lab he swiped his key card the door swung open into the darkness as Brito
stepped into the doorway the automated lights kicked on and the door shut
behind him how are we feeling this evening said Brito to the now illuminated
lab against the far wall was a large slender creature from a distance that
resembled a very tall very thin man the creature did not like the fluorescent
lights and struggled against its restraints to break free and return to
the blessed darkness now now now don't you struggle said Brito calmly to the
creature we don't want you damaging that precious thick cock of yours in addition
to the restraints holding the creature's arms and legs around its waist was a
metal contraption holding it tight against the wall at the end of the
waist contraption was a tube attached to the large throbbing head of the
creature's penis it's almost time for you to shine slender man
could Brito with the restrained man this time next week the world will be
enjoying an alcoholic mixture of your common art delicious beer it'll be a
hailed as a I'll be hailed as a hero I'm gonna save his company I'll make you
love me like I love you you're going to slumber for this shouted slender man and
Brito from across the room I doubt it Brito replied you've been in this lab
for two years and every single one of your proxies who have tried to break in
here I've been killed you're here for the long haul scream the slender man
pulling against his restraints you know I think we're one load short for our last
batch going out tomorrow morning why don't we take care of that now said
Brito slyly Brito removed the automated master machine from slender man's cock
and pressed a button to raise the creature's rock hard erection to eye
level mm-hmm how about we do this old-fashioned way this time said Brito
as he took slender man's cock into his mouth at first slender man fought the
aggressive CEO soft mouth but he could no longer fight it and for the next ten
minutes slender man forgot his situation and gave into the pleasure for
common full force right down into the back of Brito's throat oops forgot to
aim that into the machine guess we'll have to try again later said Brito with
this sly smile his mouth tasted vaguely of lime and that's it oh my god all
right slender man's cum tastes like a lie buddy that's why by the way I agree
Bud Light lime is not what I drink it is disgusting yeah I would imagine that's
how it is made one day I will reveal the work that I have done you don't think you
