Raise the Dead

By D Stranger

In a desperate attempt to get his client acquitted of a murder charge, a practical, no nonsense, skeptical attorney is forced to consider using supposed supernatural means to resurrect the only witness to the crime to get the corpse's testimony. The means by which this feat is to be accomplished is as bizarre as the price for said service.

D Stranger

My story is an incredible one. Believed dead, I once enjoyed immense popularity, but I abused my talents and knowledge for the selfish indulgences of riches, fame, and forbidden erotica. Now to try and atone for my sins I have chosen to resurrect myself under the assumed guise of D. STRANGER so that I might elude those who seek to silence me from enlightening a disbelieving public about the threat that is posed to them by the Faceless Ones. Physical temptations made me seek immortality, that I may forever enjoy the delicacies of the material world. But, as I have learned, a spirit cannot have it both ways. The flesh was not designed to endure forever, so the spirit seeks a way to prolong the sensations of “feeling”. With my current body now in a rapid state of decay, I realize that my time is short, but my mission is no less urgent. I have to get the word out. Films and books appear to be the quickest way to reach the masses. I, with the help of my protégé, Mr. Mayeed, will use fact-based tales of terror to warn humanity that there are those who would use the bodies of the unsuspecting population as vessels for their own pleasure and in doing so deny the victims a chance at eternal salvation.
