You probably heard that we acted out of fear, and it’s true. That was part of it. We were scared of Rudy Wayne Roberts. There was never any way to predict what he might do, not when he was in one of his moods, and those could hit without warning.

Dude, remind me never to piss you off. I’d almost forgotten how powerful this story was, and listening to it upped the tension. Very well done. Great story and great reading.

Nailed it. Everyone, even good kids, can be pushed to the limit. I could really relate. Great job.

Just listened to this one…very well done. We all know horror’s cathartic, but I think it takes it to a new level when you add wish fulfillment and make the reader/listener sympathize with the monsters.
Anyone who’s ever been bullied had to get a grim sort of satisfaction from this one.

Nerdy kids with glasses go bad as well? No way! My brother had his pants pulled off from him one time. He tried to punch the kid who did it to him but ended up with a black eye himself.
