Summoned by an Eyelash Wish
The Terror of the Goatman
Last week, I gave my 90th subscriber the opportunity to pick the theme for my next serialized script.
told me to write a story about the Goatman living in the walls of a person’s house. Check out the script for Summoned by an Eyelash Wish below.P.S.:
’s newest Kickstarter is LIVE. I had the incredible opportunity to be involved in Caleb’s Modern Mythology Vol 1 and 2. In Vol 2, I wrote a story about the monster, Spring-Heeled Jack, going to Hollywood to murder the creative team that owns his life rights. Grab a copy of both volumes today on Kickstarter.

Panel 1: The readers are looking through a second-floor window. It is raining outside. On the curb, we see a limo. The limo driver has the passenger door open and is holding an umbrella. Under the umbrella is Lori’s mother. Lori’s mother is holding Lori’s hand as she steps out of the limo. They are both dressed in black.
Caption: This is the end of the Scotti family of three. Now a family of two.
