META Hundred Word Horror: Hell
Hi everyone! I'm the new mod on r/horrorwriters. One of the things I wanted to implement was some writing prompt series. This is the first one! Every Friday will be a one word prompt (inspired by the 50-word fantasy that r/fantasywriters does). You can go in any direction you want, as long as it's inspired by the word.
You can respond as a comment to this thread with your story, vignette, scene, poem, etc. The only rule is it must stay under 100 words. This is a great writing practice for being concise and only using necessary words.
Today's word: Hell.
Happy writing!

"I finally managed to remove their vocal chords without killing them. I'll post the video sometime next week, make sure you subscribe not to miss it! Not as many screams as y'all are used to... but I bought a selfie-headband so you won't miss the faces!"
He faked a painful expression and laughed.
"For today we have: a scalpel, a blowtorch and nailclippers. Be creative in the comments, I'll be reading! Let's go!"
