Starting point is 00:00:00 My mom, the theater, and the curse that ate us alive. You know, sometimes life throws stuff at you that's so weird, you can't even figure out how you got there. This is one of those stories. It starts out kind of ordinary, or at least it pretends to be. But stick with me, because things spiral fast. So, my mom works at this theater, kind of an artsy place, you know, small stage, big dreams, that type of vibe. She's in charge of the shows, the casting, the ideas, basically the queen of the weird little empire. Growing up, I'd hang around backstage, messing with the props and sometimes sneaking candy from the green room.
Starting point is 00:00:42 But one day she changed. I mean, like, really changed. I remember this one evening, she came home and said something strange. She was pacing in the kitchen, muttering to herself like always, but then she paused and looked at me and said, said, the audience is getting bored. I need to shake things up. I was like, okay. Are you adding music or something, but she just smiled and handed me off to a babysitter. I didn't think much of it at the time. Figured she was just planning something extra theatrical. But my gut told me something was off. Call it paranoia or intuition or whatever, but I couldn't stop thinking
Starting point is 00:01:23 about it. So I texted my best friend, Jason. He's the type of guy who's always down for trouble, always ready with his car and a half-tanked gas meter. I think something weird's going down at the theater, I told him. He replied, say less. Ten minutes later, we were driving toward that old brick building where my mom practically lived. It was late, like almost midnight, and the sky looked bruised, all purple and gray. The parking lot was empty except for her car and a delivery van with tinted windows. Jason and I slipped inside through the back door she usually forgot to lock.
Starting point is 00:02:02 We crept past curtains and ropes, stepping over wires and old costumes. And then, we saw it. My mom was on stage. But she wasn't rehearsing. No one was clapping. There were no lights or music or cameras. It was dead silent. And lying there in front of her was a girl, mid-20s, maybe, blonde hair soaked in
Starting point is 00:02:26 blood, limbs limp like a puppet whose strings had snapped. My mom was leaning over her, knife still in hand, and then, I swear to God, she kissed the corpse on the forehead. Jason almost threw up. I couldn't even speak. I backed up and hit a metal pole that echoed through the room like a bell. My mom turned her head sharply, eyes wide but not surprised. She didn't say anything. Just smiled like she knew we'd come. But the weirdest part wasn't even the murder. It was what the girl said before she died. I hadn't heard it, but my mom told me later, almost proudly, like it was some twisted badge of honor. The girl had cursed her. Said something like, you and your bloodline will feast on yourselves. Cannibals until the end of time, at first, I thought it was just a final
Starting point is 00:03:19 dramatic line. You know how people get theatrical when they know they're dying, poetic, desperate. But it wasn't an act. It was real. All of it. Things went quiet after that, at least for a few days. I didn't see my mom much. She claimed she was preparing for a new kind of immersive theater, said it would be visceral. I didn't ask. But then it got worse. A week later, I got kidnapped. Yeah, like full on taken. It was the The brother of the girl my mom had killed. This guy was off the rails, looked like he hadn't slept in years. He tied me to a chair in some underground storage room with flickering lights and a nasty
Starting point is 00:04:06 smell of mildew and meat. I want you to feel what my sister felt, he said. I want you to become what she cursed. He shoved a plate in front of me. At first, I thought it was beef or something. Then I saw the fingernails. Eat, he said. I kept shaking my head. No way. Hell no, but then he pulled out a gun and aimed it at my head.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Eat or die, so I ate. God, I didn't want to. Every bite was like chewing guilt and shame and sin, but I swallowed it down because I didn't want to die in some damp basement. I thought it would end there. I thought he'd let me go. But the thing about curses, they stick. After that, night, I couldn't stop thinking about the taste. As disgusting as it was, there was something magnetic about it. Like my body was waking up to something ancient and horrible. By the time my 18th birthday came around, I was gone. That morning, my uncle came by with a gift. We laughed, we hugged, we took some dumb pictures. But later, when I went to the bathroom with a weird craving clawing at my insides, I dragged him in with me. I dragged him in with me.
Starting point is 00:05:23 It was brutal. Messy. Primal. When I was done, I stared at the mess in the mirror, blood on my teeth and tears in my eyes. An hour passed. My mom knocked on the door. You okay in there? That's a long poop, but moms no. And when she opened the door and saw what I'd done, she didn't scream. She just nodded. Maybe the curse had finally completed the circuit. I was one of them now. Then I ate her too. And my dad. And my cousins. Everyone at that party. I don't know if it was hunger or madness. Maybe both.
Starting point is 00:06:09 After that, I went rogue. Roaming the streets like a beast in human skin. Looking for my next meal. And that's when I saw her. She was beautiful. Not like Instagram influencer pre. pretty, like, hauntingly beautiful. Pale face, dark eyes, and a porcelain mask covering half her features. My heart stopped. She looked just like the girl my mom had killed. But I didn't want to eat her.
Starting point is 00:06:39 I wanted to know her. So I asked her out. And she said yes. We started dating. We bonded over strange books and nighttime walks and our mutual weirdness. But not everyone was happy about it. There was this girl, Sonny. She was part of the same twisted legacy, one of the cursed clan. She found out I was dating someone from the opposite side, and she lost it. You're a traitor, she screamed. You'll bring death to us all, I tried to calm her down, told her she was overreacting. But she grabbed a butcher knife and said, Anyone who may be. mates across the curse dies slow, I ran. Hit at Jason's house for months. He never asked questions, just let me sleep on the floor and brought me takeout. But Sunny found me.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I remember the night perfectly. Rain on the roof. Dim TV glow. Jason snoring on the couch. And then, I saw her. Sunny. Standing outside the window with that same creepy knife, her, her mouth twitching into a grin that didn't reach her eyes. I ducked under the bed. Too late. She was already inside. She swung the blade down, aiming for my neck, but I rolled just in time. Screamed. Jason woke up and tackled her. Cops came. She got locked up. We thought that was the end of it. But curses don't die easy. Time passed. I married the masked girl. Jason was my best man. Things felt normal again, for a while. But one night Jason called me, sobbing. His daughter, only five, had done something, wrong. She had killed a rabbit. But not just killed. Played a game with it. Cagome, Cagome, he said. And then, when the bunny lost the game, she cut it open. Eight its insides. laughed. I didn't know what to say. That curse wasn't just spreading. It was evolving. Growing roots in the next generation. Jason's mom tried to force the girl to abort every pregnancy she had, terrified of what might be born. But in her last pregnancy, Jason's sister escaped, gave birth in secret. And now, this new child was already tasting blood, already becoming.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Jason whispered to me on the phone, she's five. And she's a monster. I was silent. Because deep down, I knew the truth. So was I. So was my mom. So were we all. And the scariest part? Maybe it wasn't the curse. Maybe it was just, human nature finally waking up.
Starting point is 00:09:39 The end.
