I really don’t care about being spoiled on most narrative media. I might have felt very different about it when The 6th Sense came out, but I don’t even remember. Anyway, spoil anything you want in the comments.
If something is good, it’ll still have some interest in the execution. I knew Gregor Samsa turned into a bug and whatever happened after that was sad, absurd, and unpleasant. The specifics still matter, still animate the reading experience.
But there is one story where I know the setup but do not know how it ends, and I would like to preserve the surprise. Maybe it’s because the hook is more compelling than most, with no obvious solution. Anyway, the story is centuries old; I’m a little overdue to find out.
But still, don’t spoil it!

Jesus, going by Charlie at the time, was trying to return but he’s still lost ‘neath the streets of Boston.
My opinion is that Henry VII projected and lied…, a lot.
is that a chud reference? im lost in my own comment section.
@ 10 in case you are lost in mine:
The first refers to the Kingston Trio’s M.T.A. song and my interpretation that’s how Jesus’ return was spoiled by a nickel tax. The second was a wild stab at your century’s old mystery and maybe it was about dead young English heirs to the throne.
I don’t know why autocorrupt replaced my ‘centuries’ with ‘century’s’…
thanks, i’ll look that song up…
as to my mystery, it isn’t an unsolved thing, just a story i can read. there have been adaptations and my curiosity was piqued because i saw an adaptation that surely did not end like the original.
if you figure it out, remember, spoil me not!
The Romans went home.
chigau that is a remarkably silly comment and I am enamoured of it.
