The Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk: pages 251- 411
What an amazing turn events, I'll just say never get attached to a character. Everyone is unique in there own way but some characters are just different. With every event that happened in the story, it was always followed by the sound of coughing or sneezing, thanks to Miss Sneezy. But All she wanted to do is stay long enough to get a share of the money, while being able to tell one of the greatest stories of all time. (Spoiler) In the end Mr. Whitter, who is not dead, comes back to the group after three months, and opens the door. He says that the time is up, and that they can leave now. As he starts to leave with Miss Sneezy, who is in desperate need of medication, he is confronted with hostility from the group. They don't want to be let go, they want to be rescued that way there story will not be just fools put together in the same room. Being locked away from the world your morals start to go to hell, its almost like living with a bunch of pirates. Trying to stop Miss Sneezy from leaving, a character named Mother Nature, slips a knife into her back, and she died within a couple minutes. Now I don't condone this type of behavior but I understand it.
