Fun fact: I read this in my 10th grade class and we were tasked with writing one final chapter that concludes the events of the book. So I decided to turn the story into a survival horror story. We learn that the real reason that George killed Lennie was because Curly paid him handsomely. But the task wasn't over, for as we learn... George was paid to kill everyone. Soon, more bodies fall. First Carlson. Then Whit. Then Candy's new dog. Not believing the rumors, the boss confronts Curly...only to be doubled up on with George, and soon his own suffering was over. Crooks dies next, but not before putting up a fight that superficially injures George. Candy sacrifices himself by blowing himself and Curly up. Finally, with no where else to turn and facing imminent death from George, Slim is able to read from the Necronomicon. Out of nowhere, hundreds of spirits of dead rabbits congregate to George and swirl around him, tearing his flesh and ending his life. The day is won...but for how long? My teacher was less than impressed. I was given a C+.
