This was a great one, Brian. Really enjoyed the all too familiar Gabe getting his comeuppance in both life and death! Also, like how at the end Hattie knows that Phil isn’t all that good for her either and she’s going to dump him as well. The misogyny, blatant from Gabe and subtle from Phil was nicely done with both men thinking it’s Hattie that has the problem and not them but, in the end, she shows she’s stronger than them both. Brilliant stuff 👍🏼

Thanks for reading, Daniel! I get the sense that Hattie is destined for greater things, and this little supernatural experience will help her level-up. Although, I'm not sure that's how I would want to get over my confidence issues. 👻👻👻

So- did Gabe turn into a zombie? That's what I'm thinking.

Dead-Gabe is an entity to be sure, a manifestation brought to life by the woods, so I suppose you could call him a zombie. But Dead-Gabe is now Dead-Dead-Gabe. Hattie took care of that. 🤣
