Mystery

The Ballad of Vincent Campbell
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The old and decayed cabin at the edge of Junos’ Creek was an old wise tale for many, and a piece of history for others. The most common retelling of this tale takes place in the Northern Bay town of Boychester, just on the cusp of Vermont as trees surround the place year round: a perfect place of isolation and despair, one could imagine.

Misery Cabin
Misery Woods stood east of town, approximately a hundred-acre stretch that was accompanied by the misery river. It was a busy area for camping, fishing, and all other outdoor activities. Ghost stories are often told there, especially about its only building. The lonely cabin at the top of the hill would become the topic of discussion whenever someone new saw it for the first time. The local lore had to be shared with the newcomer.

The Vampire Man: Part 5
Suddenly, he feels a sudden pressure pushing against him. He quickly stumbles back from the attack, realizing that he was pushed forward by someone or something. As he turns around to look at the person who did this, his mouth opens wide in shock. Standing right behind him is none other than a woman dressed in all black. Her raven black hair flows freely down her back as she holds a wicked-looking dagger in one hand. She stares down at him coldly with her icy red eyes. He takes a step back and clutches his side, trying to stop the blood from flowing out of his chest.

He walks over to the boy, who is lying on the ground writhing in pain. His hands are clutching his stomach tightly, tears streaming down his cheeks. Suddenly his eyes open and he looks straight at him, his lips twisting into a grimace.

Mia Marina
Chapter 1: Alta Mar May 26, 1716 The morning arrived with the roosters’ crow. The sunlight accompanied by the busy shadows on the alley walls, tell the tales of the many peoples making their way to start anew. San Juan, Puerto Rico. Truly paradise. A place where the suns touch, together with the humid ocean breeze entwine in an unseemly relationship. This was an age of prosperity, where cultures interweaved and the open seas became the great equalizer of men.

The Vampire Man: Part 1
Roses are red and violet are blue they say, but in a forest full of them, the colours look grey. The leaves are brittle and dry, the ground littered with dead leaves and broken twigs, and everything is grey. It’s a cold day, colder than any that has fallen in the last three years, a chill settles over everything like a blanket. A few hours ago there was snow on the ground, and now it is gone, leaving behind a barren landscape. It isn't long until it starts to rain.

The vampire Man: Part 2
"I haven't exactly kept track of time, Erika," he answers honestly, giving her a small smile. She sighs in annoyance and leans forwards, placing her elbows on her knees. "Well then I'll have to explain!" she exclaims excitedly. "When you come to us we are human children, our parents took care of us. We were born on Earth, and our parents died in the fall. We were brought to the castle where I was born, but I was taken away before I had a chance to learn anything! I've lived all my life here in this castle but there hasn't been anyone I can trust! I'm scared I might make a mistake, and everyone will die and I'll lose everything! You must help me!"
