g_a, congratulations for creating such a stark and twisted vision of depraved horror.
Chillingly good, unmistakable style and command of the vernacular with a welcome detour from the usual filth...nice one...

Yup, that's pretty messed up right there. And endless downward spiral for our poor fellow. Well done!
Very patient and skillful authorship. Excellent use of imagery and language. I knew something was coming at the end, but I didn't know what until I was there. Nice job!
And what would you do to save yourself from imminent death. Excellent story
He must have been desperate, but that in stories is always how the Devil works. He makes you an offer that you can't refuse. Then, of course, you're stuck. Mind you, I don't believe in a literal Devil, so to me, it's just a meme, albeit an interesting one.
Sounds like a great twilight zone episode. You should write a screenplay.
Five Stars
You Sir, have a twisted imagination and a talent for writing; more please.
Interesting and thought provoking story. A minor historical mistake, long drop hanging was not used in 1829. In fact you described a short drop hanging, which was used. If done properly long drop results in instant unconsciousness, short drop hanging does not.
