I enjoyed the supernatural element of this, a killer getting what's coming to him (as suggested by the title). I just feel like the main twist happened to soon... though you end this quite nicely (sting in the tail). Nice work.

Just okay for me. My number one problem is that I couldn't see the rationale for the first woman going into the apartment - the connection between her and Lara was lost on me |

I loved the visuals in this one, and the concept. I did have to read it twice because I ended up a little confused on certain things. The end though..she allows him to keep killing women so she can cause him pain every time?? Not sure how I feel about that.
Nice entry. |

Very good for what it is, but it feels like something I've seen a lot before. A killer is tormented in hell.
I know this is a different film, but I wish he didn't start right off the bat as a killer. Maybe have him pretending to be a nice guy, or even he's simply out on a date rather than stalking someone. Then it may be more surprising when the woman attacks him.
Still, this would be a swell gore piece in an ABCs or Death anthology or something similar. |

You went for some powerful and graphic revenge, kudos for taking that risk. An interesting twist too. I do think she could toy with him more at the beginning. She's so cool and collected about the whole thing it drains the suspense a bit. Maybe she could play the victim, mess with his head... although that might require more than 2 pages. Anyways, solid work. |

I think I see what you were going for in the beginning. He was stalking that woman, and when she fled out of her apartment it surprised him enough to want to see what scared her so much. So the woman saw her as a ghost, I take it, or something like that.
"You already killed me. I was number three. Don't you recognize me?" That's a sweet bit of dialogue. I also like her last line, well done.
So he's doomed to spend the rest of his life experiencing the slashings and eviscerations he did to her over and over again. I expect he'll be checking himself out of life fairly soon.
Great little revenge story, it just stumbles a bit getting set up. |

Hi writer,
Another one that's just middle of the road for me, it just feels done.
Congrats on getting an entry in.
All the best. |

The action, in the beginning, was clumsy and not clear. Got it in the end though but it was a struggle.
"Ghost of previous victim" feels a bit done, but I liked the fact he didn;t just die, she will make him die over and over (Since the number of victims was mentioned earlier, I would have added in there something about he has to die eleven more times before shes done)
I would ramp up the pain and agony the guy is suffering as well, make it really horrific.

Nicely written and had the twist, just very familiar. If every killer got their comeuppance in such a manner, there would be very few murders. So what is it about this woman that allows her to exact revenge? I know you only had 2 pages, but it would be nice to know why only 1 of the 12 victims had the power to exact revenge from the grave. |

Not sure what is happening in this story, is it a dream or does a ghost break into peoples apartments, scare the occupants away so she can continuously torture a murderer? But enjoyable none the less. Well done. |

The writing is kinda clunky in parts, and the story isn't too original. But you do have some great gore, so kudos there! This one is just okay to me. Good effort. |

Nice visuals on the gore front but...
Why does the 3rd victim come back now, another 9 women have been killed.
What connections to the girl who runs off? |
