Erythrophobia

by Christopher T. Dabrowski

Translated from Polish by Magda Woźniak


Erythrophobia is a terrible phobia, it is arguable that for someone it is fatal!

When someone suffers it, sometimes faints happened to him…

Yes, if someone is sensitive, he may go kerplunk!

But our lord had other problems, more serious. Suffering this phobia, he suffered also of hunger, real tortures. Pale on his face, with dark circles, still hidden in darkness of rooms. The family worried, mother, daughter, wife. As it goes on, our lord will finally die of hunger, what a terrible phobia this erythrophobia…

And what that poor lord need to do, though he was a vampire, at the sight of blood he pushes the panic button.
