Story is like a mix of The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe & The Boy Who Cried Wolf by Aesop.

Now that you're sure it's not your brother, it's 100% not-incest. Just sayin'.

Very interesting story. I desire to know more!

The book is called Through the Woods by Emily Carroll. Very good and very creepy.

God Damn It!!! I hate endings like this.
LegionofMartyrs
I assumed that he really did kill the monster who was dopeling as his brother and his actual brother really was lost in the woods.
NaomiDeplume
I assumed his brother was the monster all along and the wolf they killed was just a random wolf.
LegionofMartyrs
Yeah and then he killed the monster thinking it was his brother.
NaomiDeplume
No, I think his brother and the monster were one and the same, and proved unkillable.
siptea
Before the hunt There's been demon watching the brother from the lilac bush. Demon digs a whole, probably why it smells like lilac. [1/2]
siptea
The jealous brother is thanked by the demon when he returns.The demon won't look at his brother because there's something by the lilac bush.

That doesn't explain the ending; just some people's theories.
RLTNY
The double was a subconscious projection that made him see his brother when he looked in the mirror. His real brother survived the gunshot
RLTNY
Because he wasn't living his own life, he would see himself as his 'resurrected' brother out of guilt. It was only when he climbed back in 2
RLTNY
The hole that he discovered his brother was still alive and has to make the decision of rescuing him, ridding his guilt, but have everyone 3

I love this but it very much needs a source in the description!

Agreed.

Emily Carroll wrote this! She has a book called Through the Woods.

IT'S AMAZING. Should come bundled with a damn nightlight.
SolomonCrane
I need to know how this ends. why is this so cruel to end at this point?
link117318
Therefore. The MC is believing that it is his brother digging the hole and that his brother is acc ther. When infact it is all guilt
PheonixTamer

skelitor120
The brother he originally killed was the actual monster (and isn't dead). Brother that came back is his real brother, and the rest is --
skelitor120
-- mental anguish of the main character trying to live with the fact that he murdered (what he thought was) his brother whilst still --
skelitor120
-- having him in his life, acting normal, getting along as if he didn't commit literal fratricide on him.
link117318
Lets find a meaning............ his brother was digging that hole. The same hole the MC put him in. And now he sleeps there
Dwarftastic
They didn't kill the monster. The wolf was, in fact, a doppelgänger who took his brother's form. He goes back, and finds his brother alive.

That's how it ends...

Who wrote it?? Where did it came from? This can't be the end. There gotta be a continuation

Emily Carroll and yeah, that's how it ends. She tends leave more questions than answers.

Apart from a page of who made the thing. http://emcarroll.com/comics/faceallred/theend.html Black on black, signifies the lamp going out.

The end used to be around the middle of this. I think there's more to come

It's one of many short stories of Emily Carroll - I have her book. I really don't think there's more to come of this particular story.

Bro 2*. Yes...thus why Bro 2 on Surface is fake.

The corpse turned to look while the other brother is looking at it with a lamp.

I don't really get it. What happened?
imjusthereforthemoneynotyourbs
He killed his brother.His brother came back from the dead and set a trap from there it's up interpretation of the reader
ImNotAlwaysAnAsshole
He thought he killed his brother.Clearly he was unsuccessful in that as he is inept in most things as suggested and the interesting part 1/2
ImNotAlwaysAnAsshole
Is the conundrum he is in. Does he tell the towns people of this demon from the woods and reveal himself a killer and coward 2/3
Besnep
The one in the hole had a torn coat. The other one didn't.
Horseymcfaceyface
I don't understand how people are Confused what I thought it was, was that they went to kill the monster and the unpopular brother thought
Horseymcfaceyface
The monster shape shift into his brother so he killed him and said it was the monster but that was really his brother and now the monster
Horseymcfaceyface
Lives in the town
limongrass
Nah, he didn't kill his bro because he thought his bro was the monster. They both thought the monster was just a mere wolf. The unpopular
limongrass
bro killed his bro because he wanted to take credit for killing the wolf to receive praise from the townsfolk.

This is stolen from the book "Through the Woods," by Emily Carroll.
foxfire1112
why do you think this is stolen lol. What the hell is wrong with people
covetouscash64
OP certainly didn't mention he was posting it with permission...
foxfire1112
Wait do you believe 90% of the stuff posted on her is owned by the poster?
covetouscash64
That's not the point. You said "why do you think this is stolen", and the answer is obvious.
Cazio
It's a significant amount of a work posted without the author's permission. This is hardly an ambiguous situation.
foxfire1112
I'm still confused on why you consider this stolen. If he added a line "by emily carroll" would you still consider it "stolen" (nothing
foxfire1112
would change except the author credit, so according to you it would in fact steal be posted without permission)

Thank you for the source. I hate it when posters here try to pass off original works of others as their own. It takes half a second to cite.

Though I agree they should put the source, they're really not trying to pass it off as their work.

It's much better here, the pagebreaks give it proper pacing, and the all black pages makes it weirdly claustrophobic, especially at the end.

She has a book called 'Through the Woods' as well!

I believe she also did the art for a game on Steam called The Yawhg. Good game - short, unsweetened, and lots of replay value.

I just don't get it. Is what comes back the monster? If so why would his brother be alive in the bottom of the hole?
anxiousbean13
It's not a monster that comes back. It's not his brother that is killed. The thing eating the sheep is a wolf, perhaps the devil. When (1/2)
WinklerTheDoubleWinker
the brothers and when they went to the woods he dug a hole (which is why it smelled of lilac). It could be that when the brother killed 3/?
anxiousbean13
To kill him and can't face him. @NicoleDanielle
WinklerTheDoubleWinker
that the hole smelled of lilac. It stated that his brother owned a cottage and a lilac bush. I believed that a shifter was scoping out 2/?
WinklerTheDoubleWinker
his brother he really did kill him but possibly a shifter took on his brother's image and preyed on another victim. So when he woke 4/?
WinklerTheDoubleWinker
So they went into the woods to kill the beast but it only turned out to be a wolf. When they stopped to check out the hole they noticed1/?
anxiousbean13
(2/2) the younger brother goes, he goes out of pride. He 'kills' the older brother out of envy but it's really the demon. OB knows YB tried
NicoleDanielle
If he really killed a demon, then did the demon go with YB to hunt the "monster"? If it was OB then where was he when the YB killed monster?
NicoleDanielle
OR IS HIS BROTHER THE MONSTER THE WHOLE TIME?! If so why is the jacket unripped, then ripped again?
WinklerTheDoubleWinker
up to see "his brother" digging a hole and checked it out the shifter was down there waiting for him to carry out his curiosity.
limongrass
I don't think he went to check out the hole the shifter was digging, i think he went back to the original hole where he killed his 1/2

brother because you can see that on the last panel his coat is ripped 2/2

Oh wow! Yeah I see it now. Yeah I'm confused too lol.
