Interesting, it's funny that I just happened to be reading a short story that features a severed hand as a classic horror trope!

Seperate but related: the movie Idle hands has always been a favorite of mine.

Nice! Actually, "Separate But Related" should be the name of the sequel :-)

And we should write it.

"The Body Politic" by Clive Barker sets the benchmark for severed hands. Sorry, Thing! http://www.clivebarker.com/images/boo...
