Your stomach will clench as you venture to, then through, the veil between reality and horror. The lines blur as you find yourself thinking, “That could happen” or “I wish that would happen” or “Dang, I hope that never happens.” As you plunge into this collection, secure your seat belt and know that this plane has no life preservers under your seat, nor will oxygen be provided in case of a loss of pressure.

Don’t say you weren’t warned.
