Excellent!!
What a horrible thought! This little nightmare goes up on my shelf; next to getting shot-off the mother ship, in my space-suit, condemned to travel the limitless sea of space, with just enough oxygen in my tank to last me a life-time. How long do you think it would take me to go completely mad? (more than usual)

Given that scenario, Gypsy, I would wish for a quick reentry into a planet's atmosphere which, hopefully, had some oxygen in it so I could burn up rather quickly. Many had the gist of this go sailing over top of their heads, but for the most part, people got it. I'm very happy you did, and that you enjoyed reading it.
Thanks again, my friend. ~Dean

This is one of my worst nightmares to be still alive and not able to speak or move and to be buried alive. It is the way you tell them Dean that make them so good.

Well done
Mary

Wow, very creepy!
I like how Dr. Pascow conveyed to be quite carefree despite the horror he was instigating on Mr Watson.
A thrilling read that left me wanting more.
Great job!

Heh-heh... yeah, he was a bit of a jerk, too wrapped up in his supposed successes to worry too much about poor Mr. Watson. Thanks for reading and generously supporting these tiny, twisted tales of terror, Jasmine. I think I speak for all of the wonderful writers who have contributed to this multi-authored book when I say we greatly appreciate it!
Thanks again...:)

Short but creepy! Its amazing how just a few words can make you feel so eerie!
Loved it!
I would have liked to heard what the "should we..." was leading to.
I'm getting claustrophobic just thinking about this. Ok I'm going for some fresh air!

I always enjoy reading your stuff. I find it very entertaining and interesting. I think that would be a concern for anyone going under cryogenics, or surgery, or being buried alive. Or burned in a crematorium. Ooh my.

O-o-o-o-o-h, that's how I'm gonna go out, Sharon. I'm to be cremated then my ashes will be mailed to Bio-Urn (Google them, it's very interesting). There, my body's ashes will be mixed with planting soil, along with the seed of an oak tree, My kids will then plant me in some predetermined place, probably on their aunt's farm, and I'll return to nature as a strong, air-giving, vibrant oak tree. Anyone who knew me in life will be able to visit "Me" for years to come...unless lightning strikes me of course. That would be about my luck, lol. Thanks for the "sixer", and for supporting these flash fiction terror tales. As always, I sincerely appreciate it...:)

Excellent

This story reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe's The Premature Burial. The doctor is a rubbing hand, licking lip, evil doctor. Mr. Watson is foolish for agreeing to this. Parsons, is the only common sense in this horror. Great flash fiction horror.

I really love that story, Muffins. In fact, I love pretty much of all Poe's work. The Tell Tale heart is the template (or should be) of how a short horror story should be written.
So, to be compared to his work is indeed a compliment, and I appreciate that. Thanks for reading! ~Dean

I am reminded of my fear of anesthesia "gone wrong". What if I feel pain as my surgeon cuts into my flesh and I can't alert him? Even worse, what if I can't wake up? This was one hell of a tiny terror.

Thanks, JM, not only fro the most generous six star rating, but for "getting it" in the first place. There were some who didn't,--if you can believe that?? I felt it as pretty much self explanatory. Thanks again for reading. I sincerely appreciate your continied support. ~Dean :}

Hi Dean, Masterful, that's the one word that truly describes this wonderfully penned short story, I just really don't know how you think them up my friend, always gory but always greatly entertaining and well worth the read.

Thank you, Eric. I tried to abstain from blood, guts, and gore in this one. Of course, being frozen alive and not being able to tell anyone about it is pretty gruesome...like being buried alive, almost.
Thanks for reading, and for that sixth star as well. I appreciate it very much, as always. ~Dean

wasn't Walt Disney frozen? if so, I hope he has about as much feeling as a hall of the presidents robot. chilling - yes, I guess that is a pun. way I see it, when it is time, just go. don't wanna be no corpsicle.

Walt Disney had only his head frozen, Ed. His reasoning behind that decision has been taken to the cryogenic freezer with him, I'd imagine. I'm going to cremated, mixed with the seed of an oak tree, then planted on a rolling hill somewhere by my kids. of course, being cremated also has horrific implications if one were to be still breathing.

That gives me an idea...

Thanks so much for weighing in on this one for me. Much obliged. ~Dean

just got back from the new avengers flick. did you see it yet?

reply by the author on 19-May-2015

No, is it any good?

reply by ravenblack on 19-May-2015

It was not as good as the first. I was really disappointed in their portrayal of The Vision.
