Blood Bitch

The Blood Bitch comes in the night to eat children through the mouth in her stomach.When Jason wakes up in the middle of the night to feel himself being suffocated, his father, Allen, tells him the Blood Bitch is coming for him. This story is based on the idea that belief and fear is where monsters get their powers. The more we believe in monsters, the stronger they are.But in this case, Jason and his mother Stephanie discover the Blood Bitch might not be as real as Allen thinks, at least if the bottle of prescription medication they find in the garage is any indication, a medication that's supposed to stop Allen's hallucinations. Now Jason and Stephanie aren't sure where the real danger is coming from.If Allen believes in the Blood Bitch enough, does that make her real?This 6000-word story is named after the Cocteau Twins song of the same name, and is perfect for fans of MASTERS OF HORROR.
