Death of Childhood
Do not drink the water. Do not eat the food. Your stomach is so empty, when it growls the echoes bounce around your innards. There is no-one to speak to, but if there was, speech would be unavailable to you. Your throat cracks.

The Unlikeliest of Places to Encounter the Paranormal
When we think of haunted places, the first thing that might come to mind is an old cemetery with centuries old gravestones, the words long faded to decipher. Or we might think of an old run down house. Walk into a centuries old house and if you’re a believer in the paranormal, you might wonder if you’re sharing this house with a spirit.

The Package
It was not a dark and stormy night; instead, it was a dark and foggy one. In with the fog rolled a masked killer. He happened upon the house at 123 Cherry Lane. He stood in the street. He wore a hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes. He carried a package. It was wrapped in blue wrapping paper and a bow. He wrang the door bell and set the gift on the porch. Kyle, age 14, answered the door. He grabbed the gift and brought it inside. He set it on the coffee table as his best friend Reggie looked on.

A little girl named Rowan is missing, and Howie is determined to find her, after receiving a strange letter about her disappearance.

Fresh
*Bob! How do you feel?* This thought was the first thing I became aware of, once I was able to pay attention to anything other than the muck.

Work
Dagon shivered in the dark, then jerked himself awake, afraid he would be caught sleeping on the job again. He opened his eyes wide and was relieved to see a bare wall in front of him, not the glow of a monitor, and he was lying down, not propped up at a desk. It was okay to sleep for a while.
