“They arrive alive. They always leave in body bags.
But not before they confess everything to me.”
The name’s Jack Steen, Night Nurse at an asylum for the criminally insane.
For those who arrive at my ward, mine is last face they’ll see before they die. Most of them know me as their Angel of Death.
I call them what they are. Serial killers, rapists, manipulators. Predators who’ve run out of time.
I can make death come easy.
But there’s a catch. I need their confessions. The ones everyone wants to hear.
Patient 1024 has an interesting appetite. Patient 1203 is fragile, sweet as honey, but she’ll break your heart. Patient 974 is Ken to his Barbie; he’ll do anything to keep her smiling.
But these monsters are masters of the game, lying and hunting through life. Their final confession might be true—or one last hat-trick to burrow into my skull.
And now? Maybe yours too.
The nurse who listens isn’t your hero—he’s your guide into hell.
Beware. These aren’t bedtime stories.
