Ho-ho, nice!

Use of silence - Perfect! I know first hand how silence can be maddening (I'm completely hardwired to the not-so-subtle hum of my laptop, so when I switch it off...) and this story relays it awesomely - 100 points

Originality - As with most stories, originality is an issue, but this story had a few very good twists (imagine my surprise when it wasn't the mailman) and the tormented souls in the walls are a good gig - 80 points

Fear factor - as I said, this story makes good use of silence, and the twist with We Go Bumpers was truly satisfying. I only regret a bit that we weren't let in on their nature, but hey: I can live with that. I hope... - 90 points

Bonus points - Slavic solidarity - adds 10 points

Malus points - Author is the wrong kind of Slav - removes 10 points

Final Score: 270/300 (90/100)
