Just horrible. I don't know why I am reading the entries in this contest. They are creeping me out for sure. Yours is one of the worst. Tommy sounds like such a good kid, doing manual labor on his parent's farm. He deserved better than your ending.
Obviously, you have told a complete story, and it is definitely horrible. Good job and good luck in this awful contest. This is a good entry.

I'm sorry, but I am never going to 'enjoy' horror. Your 3 sentences are well constructed and definitely deliver a horrifying situation, but how distressing this would be for anyone to read who has been confronted by a loved one's death by murder or suicide.

    Yikes! thankfully this is fiction, and I hope no one would ever find their loved one as described here. :( Thank you though for your review. No one puts a notice of how gory it can be or not. I certainly do not mean to offend anyone, least of all you, my friend.

    I know that no offense is intended - I am just squeamish. xx

Oh my goodness! Did Tommy have some enemies or was it the ghouls on Halloween who committed this horrific murder? I guess we will never know, but this is a chilling scene, love Dolly x

Oh, my.....that's quite dreadful and gory! You should probably put a warning on this one for violence.... Also, in your second sentence the first portion set off in commas [After being gone for many hours and no sign of his return] does not match the noun that it should be modifying [Tommy's family]. Good luck at the polls... :) ;)

This story certainly is horrific. It meets the contest requirements in terms of subject matter and length. The picture complements it nicely. Thanks for sharing.

Gross! I'm new to this format of three sentences of horror. If the point is to create a scene and feeling of horror, you have accomplished your objective.
