BRAIN SCOOPER A Scare at Bedtime Series
Some fathers pass down wisdom. Harold Pritchard passed down hunger.
When eight-year-old Billy Pritchard fails at school, his desperate zookeeper father makes an unthinkable choice: he feeds his struggling son the brain of a dead monkey. It works. Billy's grades soar. His intelligence blooms. And a terrible addiction begins.
Decades later, Billy Pritchard is a brilliant CEO worth billions and a monster who keeps kidnapped geniuses alive in his basement, extracting pieces of their brains to maintain his edge. When his own son Thomas shows the same struggles Billy once faced, the choice seems obvious.
Feed him. Make him brilliant. Pass down the family curse.
But Thomas learns his lessons too well. He understands not just the science of stolen genius, but the cold logic behind it. And when he looks at his father, he sees the ultimate source, decades of accumulated knowledge, waiting to be harvested.
"Brain Scooper" is a visceral descent into the horror of ambition without limits, where the pursuit of excellence becomes literal consumption, and each generation devours the last. A chilling exploration of how far we'll go to save our children from being ordinary and what we become in the process.
Perfect for readers who like their horror psychological, their scares earned, and their monsters uncomfortably human.
