The Functionary | INCREDIBLE WW2 SOUTH AMERICAN NAZI CRIMINAL HORROR

"An old man, sipping his coffee, watches over his quiet fields in South America, remembering a past life in Germany-a life long abandoned. But when a mysterious stranger from Ethiopia arrives with unsettling knowledge of his past and an ominous proposal, the serene morning turns sinister. As hidden truths come to light, Johannes Schreiber realizes his past sins are catching up, and there’s no outrunning the shadows that haunt him. Who is this visitor, and what deadly game is he about to be drawn into? Prepare to uncover secrets buried deep in history, where survival is anything but guaranteed."
Today’s nightmarish tale of terror is ‘The Functionary’ an original work by W. B. Stickel, kindly shared directly with me via my sub-reddit and narrated here for you all with the author’s kind permission.

I love your bedtime stories, they allow my mind to decelerate and slow down enough that I can sleep.. Thank you and the authors who give me my piece of mind. I’m still a slag for good zombie stories 🧟‍♂️🧟🧟‍♀️🧟🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️🧟🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️🧟🧟‍♂️ good night everyone, and don’t forget, when Bagpus goes to sleep, all his friends go to sleep 😴

[@The.cluttered.cottage]

This was incredibly written and a great way to explain such a dark place in history!! Also our narrator really made this story hit so close to home. ❤

[@sleepy1der1]

Another rather emotional and awesome story, Thank you doctor.

[@lindadean3374]

It’s inconceivable but a Fact…Man’s inhumanity to Man & Women….We MUST LEARN from history & strive for a better world/future/life…!!!🌻🌻🌻

[@SleepyLeeeee]

That was a very good story. This reminds me that there is a sequel to the book (well, book made into a movie) called Wonder. This new one is called White Bird and it comes from the perspective of the boy who had bullied Auggie. That's all I'll say because I don't want to ruin the story for anybody. I can't wait for this movie to come out (Oct 4!!!). This author's story gave me chills. Thank you!

[@DSWL_]

one of my favorite uploads of yours ever

[@pocadon]

Great story! I loved it! Ultimate justice and revenge story. Yes, we understand why you don't have to say anything after this story. I'm very happy you did this story, especially now with calls for another one and antisemitism rising faster than I thought possible. I think WW2 was the 3rd or 4th Holocaust on the Jews. People are trying to start another one over there.

[@jasonroberts4470]

One of your better ones and that's saying something thank you😊

[@mtaylor7171]

I know creepy pastas are dark but this was DARK. 😮

[@empathic.supernova]

Revealing shadows of the evil atrocities that lurk in our world's history... Thank you, Dr. C for your respect and compulsion to narrate this one. It should not be easy ~ to read, write, speak... You are correct in that it is necessary to give your time to as it is something that should not be forgotten lest it be buried and allowed to happen again. It sound be appreciated for how skillfully the subject matter was crafted into this story, and the story so eloquently narrated, however only enjoyable to those that see it as a fairytale, just another dark "creepypasta" ... Not a creative retelling of a small slice of the greatest tragedy this world has ever known, but just a creative, horribly dark work of fiction. I will never understand how that kind of evil can be found in souls of men (and women). But I digress. Again, as always, good doctor, you did not disappoint. Thank you for sharing your gift ❤️

[@mtaylor7171]

[@brianpeace4686]

Dark and Well Written

[@caryjacobs8878]

I had this very same experience on a Greyhound bus from Seattle to Portland. The victims were all Girl Scouts I’d mooned over the years. Laughed my ass off. Last time they screwed me on a cookie deal… 😉👍🏻

[@annettew5740]

Very well written story and wonderfully narrated by my favorite Doctor! Thanks Doc! Wished you would have pushed for 30 more seconds, but could understand by the end. Hope you have a fabulous week!🤗💜🕷💀

[@paulcateiii]

very good except the ending is very similar to Vic Morrow's characters fate in theTwilight Zone( the movie )

[@WB_Stickel]

I learned about the Twight Zone movie well after writing it, but I get what you mean

[@MrsCaranAmy]

This was an amazing story tonight. It was incredibly well written and narrated. Thank you. Have a good night ❤🤗🌟

[@DrCreepen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@stevegerth7044]

How much truth is inserted into fiction?

[@jackdurden466]

Oh wow, in the past I’ve definitely made it clear how much I love revenge stories. I don’t think you could ever do better than this! What an absolute masterpiece of vengeance to put upon a Nazi soldier who’d either committed or taken part in over 60,000 killings! Make him relive each and every single one, and feel their pain over and over! This was so well written that I didn’t even take the time to try and foresee what was to come when he was initially approached by the “messenger”, who absolutely delivered a message the likes of which have never been outdone! I was along for the ride every single second of this and I didn’t miss a beat. So to the author I offer the highest possible praise for such a well written story! Unique in its telling and so satisfying that I’d happily take seconds were it a meal. Even as full as I am. To the great Dr, you definitely deserve some great applause for this amazing project! So from me I can only offer you the Award for Brilliance in Narration! 🏆 Well deserved and I’m sure you’ll do it again! It’s just rare that you’re offered up such excellent work to complement with an excellent performance. Bravo!!👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@WB_Stickel]

Thanks--it wasnt fun to write, and I'd guess no joy for the good doctor to read. But I'd written it after becoming a little obsessed with learning about the death camps. Which sounds morbid, but I mean obsessed in the sense of trying to understand how humans could possibly exact such evil upon one another. I never came to understand the why, the just how (even going as far as visiting Dachau during a trip to Munich). I don't think there's any understanding the why. And I hope every one of the perpetrators has gotten to meet Johannes' fate.

[@jackdurden466]

@@WB_Stickel in a perfect world they will. And I’ve heard stories about near death experiences that would leave you feeling quite satisfied with what I uncovered. I won’t go into details as it’s just too much but the issue remains that they very much might live one of the lives that they snuffed out and every single twinge of pain shall be felt. Other than that and it being such a “careful how you approach it” area, I think you did an excellent job and tastefully so.

[@empathic.supernova]

​@WB_Stickel Amazingly crafted. Brilliant! Thank you for tackling this difficult subject matter lest we forget these atrocities ... As much as I cannot comprehend how a widespread horrific evil such as that could exist in the hearts of "man"... I too visited a concentration camp site at the age of 18... it was so profound, I was so moved and truly heartbroken 💔 but it was necessary for me. I could never have gained the appropriate clarity of perspective and gut-wrenching disdain such atrocities. I do not believe anyone can truly appreciate this.

[@CKlegion7272]

Very good job dear Dr. Greetings from Netherland

[@24934637]

Good evening Doctor, and good evening all....This sounds an interesting one. As always looking forward to either an awesome story or a good sleep, with an awesome story when I listen again tomorrow...4am here, should have been asleep hours ago, but still can't get into US time lol.

A great story, i’ve always been interested in this particular (sub) genre of horror..to know that somehow someway, evildoers will face retribution, orchestrated by People, or God, or both…

[@WB_Stickel]

If there's any semblance of fairness in the universe, they will suffer for what they did. The part about the little boy with the apple is a true story.
