If your goal is to surprise your readers and leave them with a lasting impression, you’ll have to think outside the box. If you want to make a story scary, there must be some psychology in it somewhere. Hidden or obvious, you’ll

CHAPTER 1.     Harry looked at himself in the mirror one more time as he adjusted the fit of his toga.  I don’t know why I agreed to the name Harry I think Central was playing a joke on me.  I said, “Cross was Central playing a joke on me when he set up the identity of Harry Masters for me?”  Cross’s voice came out of the overhead speaker and said, “Honestly I don’t know, I would say he wasn’t if you weren’t so hairy that it called dad’s intentions into question.”  Harry shook his head and asked, “And you’re sure Central won’t let you tell me what my real name and
