Riveting. You have a knack of drawing the reader into your world (story).I was completely lost in the plot which was developed very well.....a great build of emotion and suspense.
Just one thing - come to such high such regard - extra such
A great admirer of your work.

Thanks so much, Chelsea. You are far too kind, my friend.

I'm really happy that you enjoyed the story, and the way in which it was written.

Have a great weekend, and thanks so much again for your exceptional review and rating. I do appreciate it! :}

Mankind seeks any sign that we are not an isolated fading flicker of sentience in a godless soulless mechanical universe, stranded, short-lived and hopeless. Let them search. The little tack-on reach for the prompt is cool with me, but this should be in a horror contest. Excellent.

Yes, we do, LIJ Red.

As far as "tack-on "reach", I wrote this story just as you've read it months ago. I have hundreds of stories saved in archives and often wait for the perfect opportunity to present them. I felt this was one such opportunity.

They give us so few true "horror prompts" to work with here. of course, I could always create one of my own...

Now, that gives me an idea...

The Gates of Hell will release evil on all of the world. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read.

And these things shall happen! Thanks for the pleasure of reading another well written story that should put us all to thinking. For we all should repent, now, while we still have the chance, and time. Great job. :-)

You got it, Ric! We think we have all of the time in the world, don't we? However there will come a day when it is already too late.

Thanks for your excellent feedback and very generous rating.

I truly appreciate it! ;]

I really liked this one; the graphic descriptions were intense, and the subject of the work as well. I loved when the antichrist gave his names to the professor, the poetry was very cool. I thought the build up was good to the climax of the professor getting eaten, and the ending was a tantalizing mix of anticipation and excitement. I cant wait to read the next chapter!

Thanks for displaying such enthusiasm, sbedian, and for the exceptional comments and rating as well.

I hadn't really thought of continuing this. However, based upon your excellent feedback, perhaps I should rethink this?

Thanks again, my friend, and have a fantastic weekend! ;)

Always with respect,

Regardless the spiritual danger, some will always search it out.

Good job, my anonymous hell raiser!

Thanks, Jay, I'm really thankful for your comments. Yep, a hell-raiser, that's me for sure, LOL. ;}

This Final Words writing prompt entry is powerfully written as it gives new life to scriptural truths about the Anti-Christ and the reader knows what is being referred to if they read the Bible. The location of hell is always mentioned in the Bible as being downward. They perhaps are hidden in the spiritual realm at this time and will be revealed in the end times. Well done with strong word choices. All the best in the contest. :0 GracieAnn

Thanks so much, GracieAnn. My muse has been doing that a great deal to me as of late; tying in my stories to biblical scripture. I simply go where he decides to take me.

I'm very pleased that you enjoyed this. As for the contest, it would appear I will need all of the luck that you care to bestow upon me, LOL.

Again, thanks for the wonderful comments and exceptional rating. I sincerely appreciate it! ;}
