Nicely done, death a subject which all humans fear. The way you portray his life that he was rich I sort of guessed he wasn’t the nicest person. Any way Great Job.

Holy. I loved that story. It was great! I loved the mystery that built up to the "reaper" character. At first I thought it was a vampire .. but way to kill the cliche! ^_^ Loved it. Loved it. Thanks for the comment by the way ;D
Keep writing :D

Hm... The hourglass idea was from Terry Pratchett, wasn't it? Or was that from somewhere else.

I have no idea why, but death-figures in mythology and fantasy fascinate me. Just the ideas that formed them, and the attitudes of the people behind them, I think. This is a very traditional Grim Reaper.

Interesting story. Not sure just how horror-ish it was, but interesting nonetheless.

This peice is awesome. I think the title fits well.

You evoked the feeling of dread and fear very well. I liked the descriptive quality of your writing.
Sidebar- how does the quote in your bio translate to English? Just wondering.

I liked the premise, though I believe you could have stretch outed the story some and let the reader in on all the terrible things the old man had done in his life. I liked the sort of futility of life theme this story had. I think if you gave it a little more work and time, developed the characters a bit more, this would be a damn fine gothic horror story.
