Sad

Very good short story. Not only is it brutal, but it hit me right in my feels. I love a twist ending and this one was perfect.

The only downside to this bloody story was that it was too short!! I want more insane waves of mice!!

This short story is not for the faint of heart!

WTAF?!?! Short but poignant. Hupp crates a vile and disgusting masterpiece of horror.

Absolutely great little gory short story that has a terrible twist at the end! Descriptions of the gore ladden scenes are on point. Enjoyed the main character quick thinking in the bathroom.

As much as I love horror, one problem I tend to have with the genre, is some authors are afraid to go to certain depths to really smush your soul into a pulp. Shaun Hupp is not afraid to do that! In such a short story, he is able to have you run the absolute gamut of emotions! If you're not afraid to have your feelings, spun around like it's in a blender, I highly recommend his work! And Mice is a perfect place to start!

5 stars for what it is. Very short story, hate mice and it did an even better job making me hate them even more. Even with it being so short it was thought provoking with what the ending could possibly be, in my opinion a few alternative endings could’ve been more meaningful but still a great short read.

Quick read about my fears of mice

Nicely written with a quick pace some graphic scenes but not much. Like I said in earlier review this dude can write. I recommend to all fans of indie horror or horror in general.

For such a short book it was a good plot but I feel like I couldn’t give it many more stars with it being so short !!! Won’t look at mice the same tho x

A very strong, absolutely memorable and expertly written tale of horror! Nothing to complain about, I enjoyed it immensely. A must buy!

Wow. This is a hell of a short story. Heartbreaking and brutal, all wrapped up in these 19 pages. Kyle isn't doing well. His world is collapsing around him, and he doesn't want to live anymore. Then the mice came. Hupp is a fantastic storyteller and this is one not to be missed. Check it out!
