peter_hmfc Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Don't know how but somehow I recently came across a cult horror story called The Magic, the first story (out of 113) in the first volume of the "Thirteen" series. Apparently it's the most terrifying horror story ever made, sometimes making people thrown up, break sweats, scream or cry and that a lot of people can't even read the whole thing, despite it being only 2 pages long. Some people say they were terrified while others say it's simply a viral marketing ploy. Now I'm interested to read it but the cheapest I can find is about ?8. Since I don't really care about reading the other 112 stories, ?8 for 2 pages seems a bit much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcus Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I can only assume peter downloaded for ?2.....read it, and has been slain by the devil. I never think of myself as superstitious, but I steer clear of things like this....so I guess I am, or maybe I'm just feared of the devil =S.

Unfortunatley I haven't bought it so I haven't been brutally slaughtered by the devil. It says ?7 on the Lulu site, which for 2 pages seems a bit much. Don't think I'll cope well face to face with the devil when I'm already scared of a ?7 price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to hear....I've not searched properly, has no-one typed it out and posted it somewhere? You're right though, 2 pages for ?7 is bull......I can get 600 pages of Stephen King for under ?7. Whoever wrote this pamphlet (basically what it is), has an awfy high opinion of themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomstick Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 ***SPOILER*** Its instructional. It tells you to do a rake of stuff and invite Satan into your home. Anyone could write it. The scary part is going through a ritual to bring the devil in. You scare yourself. The 'book' itself is not scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budgie. Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Read it a couple of weeks ago. It is an interesting concept. You need to follow all of the instructions to get the full effect and I have to admit I couldn't do it. Spooky, but not the most terrifying short story ever. For me that accolade goes to one of two short stories written by Ray Bradbury called The Trapdoor amd The Thing at the top of the Stairs. PS. If anyone wants a typed up version of The Magic drop me a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
