  7. I killed her twice is genius. It is the little touch that would keep me reading, because it was unexpected.

  8. Nice! What a terrible situation! It would make me a crazy person if I couldn't shake an ex, especially after killing them twice! A haunting I would like to avoid at all costs. Thanks for sharing!

  14. Ok this made me giggle. But then again most zombie shows though scary usually makes me giggle. Love the line "Until I join her, she won't stay dead"

  15. Yeah. This literally terrifies me. I had "visions" of having to kill my husband the other night during yet another invisible zombie invasion at 4 am. LOL.
