Please Re-Turn
A short horror story about sudden violence and severed heads in a wading pool.
The narrative centers on Drake’s manipulation of two women into a rage-filled state. He traps them in a pool before executing a swift, brutal killing with a machete. The text focuses on the visual details of the aftermath rather than the lead-up. Graham writes with a detached tone that highlights the mechanical nature of the violence. The story does not explore why the characters are angry or what happens next. It remains fixed on the moment of death and the immediate physical result. This style appeals to fans of shock value and graphic content.
Published in 2013 by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform, this work sits within the contemporary independent horror market. It reflects a period where self-publishing allowed for more extreme and unfiltered content outside traditional genre constraints.
