An Extreme Horror Short Story by Wrath James White
Some men don’t need demons to become monsters.Hans is the bouncer at The Rusty Knife, a bar where broken nights end in bruises and blood. He is large, feared, and perfectly comfortable with his appetites. Violence isn’t a tool for himit’s a language. Desire isn’t a weaknessit’s a reward.
When the night spirals into chaos, Hans does what he’s always done. He hurts people. He crosses lines. He enjoys it.
And that’s the point.
In ‘I Am Violence,’ Wrath James White delivers a merciless examination of cruelty, power, and human evilstripping away the comforting belief that monsters require possession to exist. This is a story about brutality as identity, about how thin the line really is between man and something far worse.
Set within the expanding universe of Try Not to Die: With Satan Inside, this short story asks an unsettling question:
If a man is already capable of unimaginable acts what does Satan actually change?
Relentless, confrontational, and unflinching, ‘I Am Violence’ is a descent into the kind of horror that doesn’t arrive from outsideit’s already waiting.
