Coal Mine Fire: One Great Short Story for one dollar 💀 scary.co

A brutal short story of a man entering the burning Virginia City Coal Mine in 1869 to fight a fire within the bowels of the earth.HORROR beyond anything my "Dedicated Readers" could imagine. This 5,297 word short story is written in first-person.An excerpt:The scene was described at the time in an account by Dan De Quille in the Territorial Enterprise.“No premature explosion of blasts, crushing of timbers, caving of earth and rock – no accident of any kind is so much feared or is more terrible than a great fire in a large mine. It is a hell, and often a hell that contains living, moving, breathing, and suffering human beings – not the ethereal and intangible souls of men.“The wives, children, and relatives of the lost flocked to the several hoisting works, approached as near to the mouths of the shafts as they were allowed to come, and stood there on all sides, their grief and lamentations causing tears to coarse down the cheeks of the most stout-hearted. ‘Lost! Lost!’ was the despairing cry constantly uttered by many of the women whose husbands were below . . . .
