Truly a living nightmare, indeed!

I'm super invested to find out what Jacek is, maybe gancanagh or another dark fae. Although the black dog you speak of sounds a bit like a shriker or bugharest. Guess we just have to wait and see.

This may be a dumb idea but hear me out, in older horror movies (think Godzilla like) the only way everyone lived is due to another monster coming to fight Godzilla. You are on reddit/nosleep perhaps find a penpal with a hellhound and have ya a little "playdate"??

Ahh patrocidal mutiny, smart!!

For more ideas on punishments perhaps, as disturbing as that sounds.
