Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer

In a city that never truly sleeps, a quirky night‑class becomes the unlikely epicenter of something far darker than its mundane lectures. The curriculum, whispered about in dimly lit halls, teeters on the edge of the occult, hinting at ancient curses that can awaken forces capable of reshaping reality. The atmosphere crackles with a blend of uneasy dread and off‑beat humor—every lecture could turn into a punchline or a portent, and the line between comedy and terror is constantly shifting.

At the heart of this chaotic setting is Jack Brooks, a gritty, hard‑working plumber who moonlights as a student. Haunted by a violent childhood and burdened by a volatile temper, Jack carries a restless fury that both isolates and defines him. His day‑to‑day struggles with anger and his uneasy relationship with his therapist hint at a deeper, unresolved battle within, while his determination to keep moving forward makes him an oddly relatable anti‑hero. Even his simple, pragmatic outlook is tinged with the absurdity of juggling pipewrenches and late‑night lectures.

The classroom’s most enigmatic figure is Professor Crowley, whose charismatic experiments mask a growing, unsettling darkness. As the semester progresses, the professor’s demeanor shifts in ways that suggest something far more sinister lurking beneath his scholarly façade. Alongside him, Eve, Jack’s frustrated yet supportive girlfriend, watches the transformation with a mix of concern and admiration, their strained bond adding emotional weight to the unfolding mystery. A seasoned local, a hardware store owner, offers cryptic warnings that the house on the professor’s property holds a malevolent legacy, underscoring the town’s uneasy relationship with its own folklore.

When the cursed night class finally spills its secrets, Jack finds himself forced to confront not only the grotesque metamorphosis of his mentor but also the demons that have long gnawed at his soul. The story promises a frantic, humor‑laden clash where his inner rage may become the very weapon needed to stave off an impending, monstrous threat.
