Perfect. Brilliant. Who hasn't thought Dead Nude Girls every time they pass by a Live Nude Girls sign? But this story runs with the thought, and the result is perfect.

Thanks to the author and well done, SH.

The title of the story made me laugh as we have a band here in South Africa called Springbok Nude Girls... But I thoroughly enjoyed the piece and thought that it was particularly well written.

Hmm, quite a nice article on “dead nude Girls” and I specially like this part where Jim can't bear to look at the other customers. It's bad etiquette in a strip bar, but that's not the reason he avoids their gaze, tries to position himself so that he can't even see them out of the corner of his eye. He doesn't want to know what kind of guy prefers to come to a zombie bar. He doesn't want to remember what brought him here in the first place, before Lily.

This is one of the most imaginative and creepy things I have read in a long time! Weirdly, a couple of friends and I were talking a few weeks back and the line "The Dead, Live," came into my head as we were discussing music. Is it possible to contact the author? This would make a compelling short film. Ian

Gripping and well-crafted story. The narrative just drew me in and kept me on the edge until the finish. Excellent work.
