There's that storytelling I love so much! I was just beginning to have an inkling as to the identity of the narrator when:
"You see, monsters have a way of listening to the world, you know, they keep their ear to the ground even when no one else is. And they hear things, just like I heard those two little lost children howling for me in the darkness of their basement."
So deliciously and desolately creepy. Wonderful details (the gooey mask experiment for instance) and characterization implied by the narrative voice.
Brilliant as always my friend :)
Thank you! :D Again, they came along as I went as most stories do...:) I wasn't sure about the narrator either, although I had an idea it would be the monster...but I was ready to change it if at some point, it no longer worked with the story. Luckily, it did.
Thank you, I'm glad to see you like my writing. Coming from you, it's a great compliment, friend :D
