Horror Prompts’ Gillian Church is hosting a horror drabble challenge this January: 31 prompts for 31 creepy tales throughout January that clock in at around 100 words.
The Prompt:
Promise
The Submission:
The knife slid in like better.
The man, whatever his name was, clutched at my shoulder weakly; his eyes were wide, stunned.
His putrid breath filled my nostrils as he asked, “Why?” in a weak, gurgling whisper.
He didn’t even recognise me.
I stabbed again, driving the blade into his face, gouging open his cheek and spilling his eyeball down his troll-like face with glee.
“I made a promise,” I growled, and stabbed again.
