I dunno, I still don't know how it ended either :S</p> Its strange, I don’t like gore, but I can sit through some of the goriest movies of all time, I even enjoyed Bad Taste and the modern slasher flicks do not phase me.

In my ending, the spiders would have made their way back into her head and she would have gone through all that trouble for nothing.

It did well for creepiness…for sure.

I'm more into audio stories in general and anything will do, as long as it doesn't suck. Honestly, I really don't care if the story has been done before. It gave me shivers. I've listened to all of the Psuedopods up to this one and it's the first one that actually gave me chills. Maybe cliches only become cliche when they stop working. I thought it was great.</p> I’m not big horror buff so I’m not sure how many times this was done before. I’m more into audio stories in general and anything will do, as long as it doesn’t suck.

It's the kind of tale that, if I'd come across it on the old pre-Pseudo Escape Pod, or some forum which didn't advertise itself as primarily a horror venue then I might have been more impressed and surprised. But having it here sadly encouraged me to listen along and tick off the horror story cliches as they came out, ending with the predictable angle of the woman preparing to go kill a lot of women by trying to drill the spiders out.</p> I didn’t care for this story at all.

As I work my way backward through the catalogue of stories, I find the writing and reading to be consistently good. So far I find “Bliss” to be the most well executed idea—the White’s scenes are bit over the top, but he pulls it off by the skin of his teeth. Additionally, Sigler’s skillful reading of Thomson’s “Last Respects” brought the characters to life.</p> This was my first psuedopod story, and I must admit that I am impressed.
