This time the author turns his crazy imagination loose on a horror story and the results are gory and of course very, very weird. ( I expect to say the word weird many times in every review for him!)
A group of teens breaks into an abandoned school to tag it up with juvenile spray paintings. It's planned to be demolished, but before that, they are allowing young students to draw all over the walls. Our group in the story wants to freak them out with their “wonderful” artwork before they arrive.
Led by Petey, a manipulative loudmouth, the group begins their tagging only to eventually come across Bunny, a very sadistic ghost whos entry into the story is absolutely crazy and fun. (And weird!) I hope you didn't like fish sticks too much!
Bunny, who has no real dialogue, still ends up as an incredibly interesting horror villain and his appearance is grotesque and described well. The attacks he launches against the group are both creative and insane.
Much like The Dead Well, this is filled with a lot of weird imagery, but horror flavored this time, but also again grounded by some good character work. Even though it is not very long the characters all have a lot of good moments and thought put into them, and I always appreciate when that is pulled off in a shorter work.
Also like The Dead Well sometimes it was hard to follow along with what was going on, but it wasn't the biggest deal. The action sees a lot of over the top weird moments that weren't always easy to make sense of.
This ends up quite violent and filled with one weird and crazy moment after another as the ghost harasses and attacks the group. The characters who could have just as easily ended up as yet more annoying horror story teenagers are very well done. The language used calls back to some of the stuff I remembered going to school in the '90s... very not PC! So while you should heed the author's warning in the store page description, check out this weird thing anyways, it was a dark bit of fun.
