  Speaker 1: I still remember the night Big Joe's smile finally slipped
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: off his face, transforming into something sinister and unrecognizable. That
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: was the night when the air in our quiet little
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: town grew heavy, as if soaked in dread. I was
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: working the night shift at Voodoo Donuts, the kind of
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: place that smelt perpetually of sugar and spice. Yet that
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: night the aroma was suffocated by a palpable tension. Joe
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: was a regular, a man whose massive frame was only
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: outmatched by his usual jovial disposition. Lately, though, he'd been different.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: More than once, I'd caught him muttering under his breath,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: eyes wide, and darting as if chasing invisible demons.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: His obsession with the.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Texts ass Challenged, a monstrous donut eating contest designed for
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: thrill seekers, had grown into a nightly ritual. He just
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: kept talking about it whenever he came, asking if anyone
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: had completed the challenge of eating half a pound donuts
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: in less than eighty seconds. But that night he wasn't
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: just there for donuts. He stormed in just past midnight.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: The door banged against the wall, startling us all as
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: we were the last of staff and customers who were
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: soon going to wrap things up. My heart thumped painfully
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: against my chest as I watched him walk straight to
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: the counter.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: The nights, the night sir up, the feast of.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Feasts, he whispered, his voice of coarse whisper that sent
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: shivers down my spine. The way he said it, it
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: was as if he wasn't really talking to me, but
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: to something behind me, something only he could see. I nodded,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: unsure of how to respond, and handed him the tray
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: stacked with the gargantuan donuts. As the other patrons cautiously watched,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Joe sat alone in his usual corner booth, the dim
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: overhead light flickering slightly, as if shivering from his cold presence.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: He didn't eat immediately.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Instead, he closed his eyes, mumbling words too soft to
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: make out. Then, without warning, he began devouring the doughnuts
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: with a frenzy I had never seen before. Each bite
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: seemed to fuel an increasing agitation in him. Halfway through
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: his grotesque display, he paused, his breaths ragged, his eyes
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: snapped ope and locking into mine. They were bloodshot, the
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: veins pulsating like they were alive.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: He speaks to me, Sarah.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: He tells me, I'm almost there to the divine glut gy.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: His words slurred into a madman's laugh. I took a
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: step back, my instincts screaming at me to call for help.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Other customers began to murmur among themselves.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Eighty seconds are up, Joe, That's all I could say.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Suddenly Joe stood up, knocking the table over donuts tumbling
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: to the floor. He began chanting loudly in a language
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I couldn't recognize, his voice growing louder and more fervent
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: with each word.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I am the.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Vessel Whitner, the Coronation, the king of gluttony, who shall
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: build his paradise upon the CRUMBSI leave behind.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: In a flash, he grabbed one of the kitchen knives
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: we used for cutting giant donuts. Pointing it, he turned
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: to the room, his eyes wild. People screamed, scrambling towards
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the exit, but Joe was faster. He lunged towards the
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: nearest customer, a young man who had been too slow
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: to react. I watched, horrified as Joe dragged him back,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: pressing the knife to his throat.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: It will becouble fist.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: The young man tears streaming down his face began to
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: eat the leftover donuts, which Joe picked from the floor
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: and shoved into his mouth. Joe counted till a but
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: since the man wasn't able to finish eating the leftovers,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Joe cried, literally, tears rushing from his eyes as he
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: wailed loudly while looking up in the sky before slashing
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: the man's throat.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: With the knife.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: My mind raced, terror gripping me as I realized the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: nightmare Joe had succumb to. I needed to do something.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: It was then that I noticed the old fire extinguisher
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: near the back door. I edged towards it, praying. Joe's
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: focus remained on his dead hostage. My hands shook as
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I gripped the cold metal, the weight of it grounding
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: me enough to muster the courage for what I needed
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: to do next.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I had to wait for the right moment.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Joe's frenzied shounce filled the room, blending with the cries
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of the trapped patrons. Joe, oblivious to the people's terror,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: continued his demented sermon about the glories of excess. I
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: in closer, the weight of the extinguisher grounding me despite
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the shaking of my hands. Joe's back was partially turned
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to me, his attention wholly consumed by his diluted ritual.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: I knew I had only one shot at this.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: If I missed, or if he turned too soon, I
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: doubted he would hesitate to make me his next victim.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Just as Joe raised the knife, signaling another terrifying command,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I sprang forward with all the strength I could muster.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I swung the heavy extinguisher. It connected with the side
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: of his head with a sickening thuught, and for a
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: moment time seemed to slow down. Joe's eyes widened and
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: shock and pain. The knife clattering to the floors, he
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: stumbled sideways. He then shook his head, a low growl
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: emanating from his throat, and fixed his gaze on me.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: There was a moment of sheer terror.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: When I thought he would charge, but instead he staggered,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: clutching his head. The impact had disoriented him, but it
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: hadn't been enough to knock him out.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: You don't understand. I'm the chosen one. They talked to me,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: They tell me what to consume. Gluttony isn't a sin,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: here a throne.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I've called the police show it's over, but he.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Only laughed, a disturbing, hollow sound that echoed through the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: now silent shop. He began stumbling towards me, his steps
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: uncertain but determined.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: It's never over a fish, It never ends. Count the
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: eighty seconds.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: With that, he grabbed the doughnut from a nearby table
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: and started hogging on it. I backed away, keeping the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: extinguisher ready, But just as he was about to complete
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: the challenge, something happened. His breathing grew labored, his face
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: increasingly pale.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Suddenly something stuck.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Joe clunched at his chest, his eye bulging with a
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: mix of pain and fear. He took another step, then collapsed,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: his massive body hitting the ground with a force that
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: shook the nearby tables. For a moment, I stood frozen,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: staring at his still form, the extinguisher slipping from my
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: numb fingers. The room was silent, except for the soft
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: sobs of relieved customers in the distant sound of approaching sirens.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I knelt beside jaw, my hands trembling as I checked
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: for a pulse.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: There was none.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: His eyes, once filled with a mad fervor, were now
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: lifeless and empty. The police arrived minutes later, their questions
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: blending into.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: The cacophony of my shocked thoughts.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: I explained what had happened, my voice distant and hollow
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: in my own ears. They took statements, their expressions a
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: mixture of sympathy and disbelief. Later, as I sat in
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the back of an ambulance, a blanket around my shoulders
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: and a cup of coffee trembling in my hands, I
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: couldn't shake the image of Joe's final moments. The madness,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the obsession with a devilish feast. It had consumed him completely.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: The weight of the night's events pressed heavily on me.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: The town would recover, the diner would reopen, and life
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: would go on, but the shadows of that night would
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: linger in my mind, the horrifying lengths to which obsession
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: could drive a man. As the first light of dawn
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: crept through the windows, touching the chaos left behind, I
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: realized the nightmare was over, but its echoes would still
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: haunt me forever. The story you just saw is inspired
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: from a true event. Voodoo Donuts's popular eighty second challenge
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: was suddenly stopped in twenty seventeen when a man choked
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: on his doughnut while attempting the challenge and sadly passed away.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: The drive to Voodoo Doughnuts that night felt like an adventure.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: My friend Amy was in town and we had a
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: couple of beers before the hunger pangs gone to us.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: She had never been to Voodoo Donuts before, so we
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: hopped into our car and drove.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: It's your last night here, Amy, we should make it.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: They should be open.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Still, the streets were deserted. As we pulled up to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: the donut shop. The neon sign was off, but dim
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: light flittered through the frosted windows, hinting, ye't someone still inside.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: They're clothes, but maybe they have leftovers. Bitch, you better
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: not be talking about a raid. I am God, you're
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: so drunk. Come on, let's see.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: As we approached the glass door, it swung open, revealing
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: a figure dressed in the Voodoo Donut mascot costume, a
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: cartoonish voodoo priest complete with a top hat and painted
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: on bones. Ladies, what a delightful surprise, the mascot exclaimed
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: in a muffled voice, the head piece distorting his features.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: You're just in time for a special naked.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Something about his tones sent a shiver down my spine.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: But Amy, ever, the adventurous soul, laughed it off and
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: pulled me inside.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Why not I like your hat, By the way, Oh,
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: such a lovely curmploman from such a lovely lady. Here,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: free colas cumpliments from the house.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: The mascot rushed to the counter and filled two glasses
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: of cola from the tap. The drinks looked innocuous enough,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: but as I took a sip, a bitter undertaste caught
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: me off guard. I chalked it up to my drunkenness,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: fueled by the eerie setting and the mascot's unsettling presence.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: We chatted about trivial things while the mascot tried flirting
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: with Amy, our laughter echoing in the empty shop, but
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: within minutes the room began to spin. I tried to
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: grasp the counter for support, but my hands wouldn't cooperate.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I managed my voice a mere whisper before darkness took over.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: When consciousness back, it brought with it the stark reality
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: of our situation. Cold tile pressed against my cheek, and
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: the air smelled sickly sweet, tinged with something metallic. My
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: head throbbed as I tried to move, only to realize
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: my wrists were bound tightly behind me. Panics set in
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: as I turned to see Amy similarly restrained her eyes
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: wide with fear.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: Where are we well?
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: What is happening in the kitchen?
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: I murmured, my gaze, taking in the horrifying sight of
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: butcher's knives gleaming under the fluorescent lights. The mascot was
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: no longer a cartoonish figure, but a menacing shadow flirting
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: between the ovens encounters. As he approached, he pulled off
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: the mascot head, revealing a gaunt face with hollow cheeks
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: and crazed eyes.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Welcome to the night shift.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I make special doughnuts after hours for my friends at
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: the graveyard. They are always hungry, always ready to bite
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: and taste something new. He hissed, a twisted smile playing
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: on his lips as he prepared the batter, who in
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: their right mind wouldn't After all, my secret ingredients are
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: going to be so so sweet. His laugh was bone chilling,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: echoing off the stainless steel surfaces.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: It's a special recipe, you see, I add a human touch,
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: He started laughing, maniacally, holding up a grotesquely sharp cleaver.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Amy sobbed beside me, her body shaking. I felt cold
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: in my throat as the reality of his words sank in.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: This wasn't just a robbery or a prank. It was
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: something far more sinister. The psycho stepped closer, the cleaver,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: catching the light as he moved. Let's prepare the doughnut,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: he said, his voice eerily calm.
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: The trick is to not make a chunky. Don't worry, darlings,
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: you'll be, he grated, till you're fine.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: As he reached for Amy, something primal awakened within me,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: the need to protect, to survive. I wriggled, feeling the
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: zip ties biting into my skin, drawing blood.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: But I didn't care.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I had to do something, anything, to prevent this monster
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: from fulfilling his ghastly intent. As the psycho advanced towards
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Amy with the cleaver, my heart pounded against my ribs
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: like a frantic drum. The cold tiles beneath me felt
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: slick with my own sweat As I struggled against the
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: tight zip ties. Amy's whimpers filled the air, a heartbreaking
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: sound that fueled my desperation.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Please don't do this.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Amy pleaded, tears streaming down her cheeks. The man paused,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: his head, tilting as if considering or plea, but his
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: eyes remained cold and detached silence. He looked at his cleaver,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: but seemed dissatisfied, so he got up to bring a
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: different blade. In that terrifying moment, my fingers brushed against
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: something small and metallic on the floor, a drop screw,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: perhaps from one of the kitchen appliances. It was sharp, jagged,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: with every ounce of strength left in me. I maneuvered
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: my hands to grasp it between my fingers. Don't worry,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I'm not a monster. You won't feel anything. The psycho
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: returned with a syringe filled with a clear liquid.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: This was my moment.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: With a fierce yank, I managed to cut through one
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: of the zip ties using the screw. My wrists bled,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: but I was free. The psycho hadn't noticed yet. I
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: leapt up my legs, weak but driven by adrenaline, I
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: charged at the man.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: He turned just as I.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Slammed into him, the impact sending us both crashing into
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: a nearby prep table. The syringe flew from his grasp,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: skittering across the floor. He was quick to recover, stronger
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: than he looked. His hands clawded my arms, trying to
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: pin me down, but the fight had given me a wild,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: frenetic strength. I thrashed and kicked, kicking over trays and utensils.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: The clamor was deafening.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Help somebody, help us.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: Amy screamed.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: The psycho growled, his expression twisting into one of pure fury.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: He lunged for the cleaver he had set aside, but
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: in that split second, Amy put her legs in the way,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: making him fall face first into the floor. I grabbed
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: a pot of boiling sugar glaze intended for the doughnuts,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: and swung it with all my might. The hot liquid
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: splashed over him, scalding his skin. He screamed, a sound
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: so harrowing it seemed to shake the very walls that
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: the doughnuts shop. While he writhed in agony, I rushed
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: to Amy, tearing at her bindings with a knife I
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: had picked. As soon as she was freeing, we didn't
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: pause to look back. We bolted towards the front door,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: stumbling over our own feet and our frantic escape.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: The cool night air hit us like a wave as
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: we burst.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Out of the shop, We ran without direction, fueled by terror,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: until we saw the distant lights of a police cruiser
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: patrolling the area. Waving our arms, we screamed for help.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Our voice is hoarse but determined. The police officers were
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: quick to respond, their training kicking in. As soon as
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: they took in our disheveled, injured appearances. We recounted everything,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: the words tumbling out in a chaotic rush. It took
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: less than an hour for the police to get hold
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: of the psycho, who ran into the woods. As we
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: sat in the back of an ambulance, wrapped in blankets
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: and sipping hot, sweet coffee that bore no resemblance to
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: the nightmare we had just endured. Amy squeezed my hand
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: and smiled. I shook my head slowly and smiled as well.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: The ordeal was over, but I knew the shadows of
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: that night would linger a stark reminder of the fragility
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: of safety and the depth of human depravity. But amid
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: those shadows, there would also be a glimmer of something
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: fierce and invincible, the enduring strength of friendship and the
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: unyielding will to survive.
