This is very good, I'll try one.
She lingered in the doorway, holding tightly to the knife. It goes in easier than she thought, he deserved all the pain she could possibly inflict. She turned him over, in the lamplight she saw, she killed the wrong man, again. Karen Yours is better. :-)

AGAIN!
Maybe she needs new glasses, or maybe take off the blindfold.
Thank you for the excellent review.

Comment from Rmocruz
I can understand why this well written brief thriller is a winner.
You have masterfully conformed to the writing prompt.
The photo-art selection is appropriate to enhance this dark theme.

Comment from Dawn Munro
Congratulations on a story well-told in only three sentences. It's gruesome, and perfect horror!
I missed the opportunity to vote, thanks to not being here often enough these days. I WAS checking my messages and finding no notification that voting had begun yet...
But I might very well have voted for this anyway, in spite of the fact that I had an entry in. *grin*(But this type of thing is the reason I seldom enter anything but site-sponsored contests. I can't live my life waiting for the judges to decide they have time to monitor the contest... after that first notice is sent out saying 'the deadline has been reached'. I DID see that one.)

Comment from Justin Chopin
Great horrific story Neon. Impressed that you were able to describe how your psychopath was able to use his blade to cut through his victims skin was very vivid. Well done.

Comment from David R. Davis
Generally not my kind of story, but that was very good. At once horrifying. Thank you for sharing and I damned sure don't want to meet you in some dark alley. Well done. Go well.

Neonewman -- whose online moniker could be translated as "new, new man" -- bloody well attacks his subject-matter in three chilling lines. The machete brings to mind the hockey-masked mass-murderer of "Halloween" fame. I remain "sanguine" for the future of this author.
