Thank you so much for your feedback. These are my very first stories ever and the positive comments really made my day. I definitely have some ideas on getting some character depth for the main character. To tighten up the plot, I didn't go much into the family, but I think that could be fixed without adding erroneous information. Your comments on the molestation content were extremely valuable. While topics like that are in itself extremely disturbing, using it for the sake of using it cheapens the story. I struggle with using that topic, as its the most detestable act I can imagine. But my antagonists are the most detestable creatures. This just confirms what I already felt with the Wink character. The final product resulted in him not coming across as what I envisioned. I wanted a dark and malicious entity that existed in both the physical and spiritual world, which made the gift of touch to the main character more impactful. What I ended up with was more Freddy Kreuger. If I can nail that character, maybe a hero tale/creepypasta might work?
