To Be Normal
What would you do to be normal?
I would do anything. Sure, it’s easy to look down your nose at me – to say that it’s ok to be “special” or that we should strive to be one of a kind, but the difference between you and myself is that my uniqueness was unfairly thrust upon me. I DID NOT ASK FOR IT!!! So I did what I had to do.
Last night, I waited for my brother to fall asleep. When I knew that he was out, I covered his face with my pillow and pinned him to the bed. It wasn’t long before he woke up of course, and once his groggy mind started to comprehend what was going on he began to thrash and kick like a wild man. I’ve always been the stronger of the two of us, but I’m not too proud to admit that it took almost every ounce of strength I had in my body to keep him subdued. Thankfully though, as his lungs became starved for oxygen, his hips started to buck with less force and his punches slowed to sluggish, tolerable blows. Eventually he stopped moving altogether. You should have seen the look of relief on my face when I checked his pulse to find that it was non-responsive. Murdering my brother was the hardest thing I’ve ever done; I loved him. Hearing his muffled cries seep out from underneath my pillow was scarring. I’m certain those last desperate pleas for mercy will stay with me for the rest of my life. But like I said before, I would do anything to be normal.
You see, my parents wouldn’t have let us go through with the operation otherwise. The doctors said that separating conjoined twins like my brother and I could have been problematic. They told our folks that our organs were too intertwined and if they performed the procedure, one of us would have surely died. It was a sacrifice no one was willing to make – no one except me. Now they have no choice and as the anesthesiologist begins to put me under, I look at my brother’s corpse, take hold of his cold lifeless hand, and smile because soon I will finally get the chance…to be normal.

Decomposing Head: Frighteningly Funny Tales That Will Rot Your Brain
Written by the authors of several Top 100 Kindle eBooks (in their darkly comedic and satirical genres):
Here you have found a book so foul, so repulsive, so horrifying... that you will undoubtedly find yourself running to the nearest bathroom in an effort to both relieve your bowels and scrub your hands clean of its putrid filth.
Though these attempts will be in vain -- just as the authors of this demented book of short stories have planned. I speak of none other than the intolerable Mr. Vincent V. Cava and his dimwitted pen pal, S.R. Tooms (the pair oftentimes billed simply as Hideous and Handsome). They have finally released this humorous collection of terrifying tales, despite the bitter public outcry which demanded these pages never see the light of day... and perhaps for good reason.
Inside this tome you will read such stories as the much talked about "Gas Station Bathroom," which has been known to cause many travelers to rethink their next rest stop pullover.
The psychological masterpiece in "The Horror of Knowing" will never allow you to gaze upon your friends in the same light again.
"A Favor for a Favor" depicts an unparalleled moralistic look at the true nature of mankind -- complete with an exquisitely satisfying finish that will have you shaking your head with sinister disbelief.
These are but a few of the many finely crafted tales lurking within this haunted collection. To those of you with a few screws loose in the noggin or those with a twisted smile (and crooked tooth or two), I bid you enter this haven of horror...
Dark Anonymous Confessions
They say that confession is necessary to purify the soul…
However, there are some deeds that are so sinister, so wicked, that even the most remorseful admission of guilt is not enough to atone for them.

These terrifying tales will horrify and sicken you. For lovers of grim, supernatural fiction, Dark Anonymous Confessions is a must read.
