Take the most frightening death you can imagine, now double it. Then double it again. And then add fire. This is our Halloween episode, and by the time we’re done, your favourite horror movie will have all the impact of a baby food commercial. I’m not saying you’ll never sleep again, but I’m not not saying it. I am apologizing in advance, and I remind you that a Doomsday barf bag is only an email away.
Back when we did the Sknyliv Airshow Disaster episode, I had grave concerns about her aggressively violent and gory it was because. If you’ll remember, during the air show, a Ukrainian fighter jet the size of a medium sized store impacted the ground, skidding through a run of barbed wire, which then hooked on the fuselage and was dragged and raked across a crowd. In retrospect, that was quaint compared to the totality of horror visited upon the people of today’s story.
I remind you, the point of this show is not simply to disgust and horrify people. It’s to educate and make them safer. It just happens that the best way to do so is to occasionally horrify, and this episode covers that in spades. This was one of the first stories I wrote, but I shelved it because I thought it would drive people away with how gratuitously awful it was. Well, we’re all here toady and filtering it through the lens of a Halloween episode, you’ll finally hear it today.
