Horror fiction that delivers on its promise to scare, startle, frighten and unsettle. These stories are fake, but the shivers down your spine won't be.
Valerie
Another held breath let loose in the breeze. Jasmine filled the air while distant merigolds mingled the senses with the propensity of a child grasping for attention. Their occasional presence, carried in the wind, reminded Valerie of the autumn she had to kill her twin sister.

Pleading Carrot
I dig digging, so digging I did. For a solid four hours. I started to dig at 11:30 am and by 3:00 I had roughly 12 dead carrot stubs uprooted and untangled. The roots looked like dreaded hair, in tight bunched up clumps. These were not your ordinary run of the mill roots. These roots were stronger than a horse and seemed to stretch out forever. I'm talking about in all directions, criss-crossing from the shed to the house and then back to the shed.

Rabid Deconstruction
Every time I wake up, somebody dies. But it’s never me. Never me. The last time, this morning — I call the thirty or so instances ‘mornings,’ but my sleep has been anything but regular. The man told me to go. So I went. I didn’t want to. Why did I want to stay?

A Meeting with Death
A Meeting with Death The wind whipped and whirled violently, possessing me like a demon, tossing me back and forth and causing my hair to thrash in every direction. Rain descended in torrents and grabbed at the earth as if daring to steal the soil, leaving only bare, cold stone. In chill waves water pounded against my pale face and seeped into my tattered dress. God truly was releasing his fury tonight. However, this tantrum hardly held any validity in comparison to the mystery I now tracked.

Phantom Island-"Origins"-23
Octavian remembered that morning with Elizabeth well. The captain had made introductions and excused himself; leaving the two alone. He had been a nervous wreck trying to figure out how to politely interact with her when interaction with her was forbidden. Add to that the worry of a mysterious illness and the betrayal of his vocal cords, and you’re left with an absolute mess of a man.

Phantom Island-"Origins"-22
Octavian laughed as he remembered that morning. He had gotten up and ready for the meeting with the captain. He was focused on the content of their meeting and double-checking his uniform to be sure he hadn’t forgotten anything important.

Dark child (dark travels)
Sajin stepped forward and shouted, father I will not server your charge or command, but yet I will purge this land of your fouls, evils and indiscretions. You've poisoned this land for far too long, you are a murderous, deliberate brute and you deserve to be cut down. Vonbak marched forward and asked “do you dare insult me, in front of my kingdom, on my land? Threaten me and take charge against my reign? Fool! but yet still a boy, you’ve been poisoned by the witches hand, and when I take her life, and take her life I shall, you will be cleansed of this sorcery, and maybe, then, after your body has been beaten, bloodied, and broken, may I consider giving you your place back in my kingdom, and you may, be allowed to keep your tongue. I had reason to end your fruitless life when you were a boy, but you were taken from me so you were spared. Is that true father? or are you not the might that you claim! Sajin shot back in mock victory. No one dared whisper a thought of suspicion of the dark lords weakness although it tickled the fancy of all the observers present. You must be a fool to speak so boldly, are you mad? In search of some death by a brutal sword. No father I’m just finally coming to the sense of my own power. as Sajin spoke this truth he stepped forward and morphed into the beast that his father desired to rule his castle. This offended every nature of Vonbaks being Sajin’s voice deepened as he continued, and unlike you father, family or not, I am and I will be the bloody end to your reign, then Sajin bellowed a low long thunderous growl in the direction of the kingdom, that shook the earth and the armies that stood behind and in front of him to the core of their creation. The beast was in total alliance with Sajin mind, body, and soul Vonbak was shocked by this, but held true to his might and reign, and said you seal your own fate boy. Vonbak took flight over his army and brought his demon full on under the moonlight in the presence of everyone. The warriors cry was so deep that you could feel it in your loins from miles away Vonbak reeled his head back in the forge of his nature, his body grew to much larger proportions, his skin turned black as suet and his claws much larger then present appeared and Vonbaks wings and fangs grew also, Wild and brutal was his appearance now if it wasn’t before. No one ever saw Vonbaks full-fledged demon and this solidified their truth to sides if they ever considered crossing. Vonbak screamed a stressed, monstrous scream, “yooooouuu ssseeeeee wwwhhhaaattttt yyyoooouuuuuvveeee ddddoooonnneeee noooowwwww ffffoooollllll. I am going to bloody the lands with the limbs and life of your army and witches and I am going to take great pleasure in the drinking your blood and consuming of your flesh. Bring me the witch, Vonbak commanded his frontline army of sirens, sentinels, gravelers , morphlings , and swords, they tore through the earth descending on Sajin’s army as the assault ensued sajin starred up and vonbak looked down as they weighed each others fight and waited on either to take the first attack. Selekah stood behind Sajin fully aware that if Vonbak won this war world that this time may very well be the death of the world as they all knew it.
