No suggestibility or filling in the blanks here, if someone in a Splatterpunk novel has to die you are going to read the gruesome details of it. ------------------------------------------------------------- Music Used: ALL MUSIC IS PRODUCED BY HOLLOWE - ------------------------------------------------------------- Sources: 1. https://www.fangoria.com/original/spl... 2.https://www.nytimes.com/1991/03/24/bo... 3. https://www.perlego.com/knowledge/stu... 4. https://litreactor.com/columns/the-ne.... 5. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dict... 6. https://courses.lumenlearning.com/sun.... 7. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-1... 8. https://www.nixonlibrary.gov/news/197.... 9. https://www.lboro.ac.uk/media-centre/.... ------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTERS: 1.
