The Ripper

I really like this. "Leaving meaty mud trails" love the imagery. Keep ripping. :)

Thank you, bathory. I believe the history of that surname bathed in much more than entrails ;)

Depends on who you ask I suppose but blood is the best cosmetic, do not let them tell you anything different. You have me wanting to right something about Jack the Ripper, such an interesting guy he must have been.

It is the mystery behind the slaughter people find most interesting. The ripper can be anyone capable of hiding in the shadows even to this day, much like bathory may be alive in all her glory simply through memory and human nature. I believe a woman would have been disregarded, as history often reveals women serial killers whom were overlooked then later discovered only after a significant death count. But there are at least four other potential killers, so you have a lot to work with, different theories that all seem plausible, except for the prince albert theory. You should write it, could be fun

I did end up writing one called Jack the Ripper. The topic is different but maybe you would find it interesting anyway.

Of course I would. Ill check it out now, thank you for the heads up

Powerful stuff, great disturbing imagery from inside the mind of a ripper.
"Come to me
Trust me"
Those lines really gave me the creeps, as was the intent.  The soft with the hard can be the most shocking.

i wrote one about a serial killer called Serial.  Scared myself a bit with that one, the ability to imagine oneself as someone else, someone ruthless and emotionally retarded, a psychopath.

We must be careful when we step into the mind of a killer, for it is easy to find a commonality within oneself. Im interested in your write, expect a drive by, love.

Being highly empathic, i am used the excess baggage that can come with it.  True though, staring long enough into an abyss will have it staring back at one.  

A drive by, ooh
