My Name is John Merick

I was seen as a freak while I was with Mr.Bites, I was actually starting to believe that I was a freak. Everyday I was be shown to people, being laughed at all for the money. I would see people come and go with all with the same expression of fear and disgust. Until I saw this man come in one day, I was alone in the dark when I heard the sound of Bites' whip. I heard distant voices when Bites opened the curtain and said to me "STAND UP AND TURN AROUND" I did as commanded. As I turned I saw this man standing in front of me. I thought that he would be frightened but on the contrary he stood there and wept.
