Der Würgeengel

A gaggle of guests discovers that hotel exits no longer recognize them as valid. Over the next few days their manners curdle into claws and they start acting like people who’ve forgotten they own silverware. A fascinating if faintly unpleasant experiment in what happens when humans stop pretending.
