The Silent Treatment

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: horror
Feature(s): The Old Witch's Grim Fairy Tale!
Character(s): The Old Witch (host)
First Line: And now for a long-lost department of my reeking restaurant, the Haunt of Fear!
Synopsis: In this grim fairy tale a remorseful king demands silence after his boisterous merry-making prevents him from hearing his daughter's shouts for help leading to her death. Eventually his demands on the peasants get so absurd he orders them to stop breathing because of the racket he claims to hear they make. They revolt, and one of them sews a sensitive metronome into the king's body that goes off with the slightest disturbance, and when the still-lying king brushes away an insect, the sound so bothers him he throws himself off a cliff.
