Reese has a skin-picking problem, one that he has had since he was very young. He feels no shame in it, but a New Year's Resolution he made with his wife Kel at the beginning of the year keeps him from indulging. For months, he keeps his promise but when he discovers an inexplicable hole in his leg and a needle-prickling sensation crawling under his skin, he begins to wonder if this skin-picking problem is just OCD or something stranger. After taking great pains to rid himself of creatures he's discovered are living beneath his skin that are causing the prickling sensation, he admits himself to the psychiatric hospital to plow through his psyche and solve the problem. Whether he unravels the mystery of his mind or plunges into even greater fathoms of madness is for you to discover in “The Scab Eater”.
