More Bark Than Bite - Short Story
THE SPLATTER CLUB presents More Bark Than Bite Robert Essig I was hanging out with Haloran Fritz smoking a fatty when the idea struck me. We had nothing better to do. No one knew much about Malcolm, but he went to work every day and had been a widower going on, hell, who knew how many years. I hadn’t seen his wife Lucretia since I was a kid. By the time we got down to the roach end of the joint, I was feeling pretty good, but Fritz and I agreed that we’d feel a whole lot bet

Men of Their Word - Short Story
Presented by THE SPLATTER CLUB For the very first time, I was disappointed in my dad. It hurt to admit this, but the way he surrendered to such a grave injustice struck me as downright weak. I'd never considered my father weak, but he’d placed his bet on a legal system that had failed him, failed my sister, failed us all. We now had every right to seek ou

I Was There - 3rd Place Winner Gross-Out Contest 2021
"I Was There" Jay Wilburn Performed Live at Virtual KillerCon 2021 - 3rd Place Winner I was there when Brian Keene got his second vaccine shot, and it did not go the way the government would have you believe. First of all, he lost his shit. Literally. Like a fecal canon, he blasted down the walls of his observation pod and drenched the innocent patients and staff. I don’t know what the hell he ate, but I saw something akin to lettuce or coleslaw in there. Definitely, gas sta

Red Wings - Short Story
The girl knocked back a shot of tequila, burped loudly and slammed the shot glass down on the scarred oak bar top. She was a standard-issue biker chick—dirty blonde hair, scuffed leather boots, tight jeans, cropped tank top with no bra, hard eyes. What my college roommate would have described as rode hard and put away wet . She hopped up on the bar, legs parted and feet dangling, facing the crowd. She slid the straps of her top off her shoulders and pushed it down to her wai
