This evening, we’re going to be reading the story, “I Should Have Been a Pair of Ragged Claws,” by JR Hamantaschen. As you heard earlier in the disclaimer, this story is centered around a suicide. While that in itself is something that I know can be very impactful to listeners, there is also a great deal of time spent inside the mind of that character, as well as those close to him, both before and after the event. This is an extremely personal look at this subject, but it doesn’t solely focus on desperation, and delves into themes of cruelty and selfishness that can be involved with suicide and the effect that it has on others. 

All of that being said, I personally feel that this is an incredibly well-written tale, and, in some ways, is one of the most horrific stories that I’ve presented to you during my time hosting Horror Hill. If this content is something that you feel you can stomach, I invite you to join me as we enter this very real nightmare.
