Brats In Hell

Yep, you read that title correctly. Frank Elder is back with his brand of wackiness in the story "Brats In Hell."

So how to brats factor into Hell? It's how Satan keeps the locals under control, so the author is pretty much spelling out that Hell is someplace in Wisconsin. Although with the weather there, that wouldn't make much sense.......unless Hell freezes over on a regular basis to ensure storage for all those brats.

The story itself centers around Otto Van Der Noodle, who is murdered just as he receives the honor of being a brat king. By a frozen brat no less. His opponent, Billy Bunns, snaps and decides that Otto needs to be dead. The police kindly explain with guns that Billy made a bad choice.

Billy uses his brand of douchbaggery to get Otto sent to Hell while he bum rushes his way into Heaven. Oddly enough, Otto gets the better end of the deal in this situation, especially after he gets his brats going.

Now before you go thinking that Otto takes over Hell with his brats, well you're partially right. Now shut up smartass, you're making me lose my train of thought.

See, folks aren't happy with how Satan has been running things. He's upset the natural order of things for a new toy and shoots down the idea of adding another level of Hell to make room for people who overshare memes with grammatical errors and other cringe inducing troll activities.

The original heir to the throne of Hell decides enough is enough and with Otto's help, plans to overthrow the traditions that have been running around and replace it with something that might make a little more sense. So now we have the War of the Brats in Hell.

Going into things any more would result in ruining the charm of what's going on, so just give the book a read and learn the power of love. And brat farts.
