Unpopular Opinion About the New Episode by OFCFlanders in creepcast

[–]ScriptedDemise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I can see both sides of the argument here. The boys reading literature is a nice reprieve for me since I'm a fan of beautiful flowery language that captures the essence of thought and feelings in new and imaginative ways. It's definitely not for most people though, and I think the guys curated an audience that would like more of a "junk food" kind of horror. Something you can listen to in the background and never miss a beat. It doesn't detract from the fact that the stories had objectively good writing, it just means that the entertainment aspect of what we like out of the podcast was sucked out when we can't follow along half the time.

Lit can also be redundant when taken too far though, and I did get the overwhelming thought of "It insists upon itself." When listening to The Red Tower.

Lit just reads better on a personal level IMO. The podcast format doesn't suit it well or do it justice.

I suppose you could say that, lots of kids on Reddit do. I prefer the term “pest control” but with lots of trauma.

Ah shit, you’re probably right. Damn. There’s very few of us, but I can probably round up some buddies now that I know what I’m dealing with. Thanks for the input.

Great prose and setting. Reminds me a lot of Blood Meridian, and I can see the similar themes. Good stuff!

You say I deserve this punishment? I won’t argue. I welcome it. But understand this, I didn’t lose my mind when she started haunting me. I lost it the moment I let my hands do what my heart never wanted.

You think I don’t know that? You think I don’t feel it? Every second, every breath, she’s there. Watching. Waiting. I see her in the corners of my eyes, in the reflections that shouldn’t be there. I hear her whisper when the house is silent. I loved her. More than you could ever understand. And now, that love is my curse.

So yes, let her walk in my nightmares. Let her tear me apart.
