A Terrifying Encounter with a Malevolent Entity
The voice had been etched into my memory like a scar, as it was unlike anything I had ever heard before. It was low and threatening, like a growl from purgatory. The words "get out" had been yelled so loudly that they seemed to reverberate throughout the home. The air around me had altered, and the atmosphere had thickened and oppressive, suffocating me with its malevolence, as if the entity itself had materialized in the room. I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, and a chill went down my spine.

The Haunting of Cassie Palmer
One of the saddest photographs I have ever seen was of my late grandparents standing on a beach with my grandmother's brother and his wife, posing, in a sort of washed-out sunshine shot that could have been an image from the Other Side. I'm not sure what state they were in when they went to visit my Uncle, but all of those people are dead now, ghosts from a distant but not too remote past, caught in a timeless frame of flashbulb memory as the sunset on their eldering lives.

Candy Bar
Satan yawned and Beezlebub stretched lazily. Vlad the Impaler nervously laughed to break the silence, and all of medieval Europe’s executioners looked at each other in apathetic confusion. With enough time and enough damned, unfortunate souls, all the great torturers of the world had grown bored, all possible avenues of terror had been traversed, and every liter of anguish had been juiced from humanity.

Inscription
Birth is beautiful, so long as whatever is brought into being isn’t biological, so long as it isn’t alive in a way we can understand: so long as it’s an island. To see the vast inorganic organs of the ocean floor churn, push, constrict, and squeeze, or to feel them as the Earth itself rattles and roars in tune with the underwater rock’s contractions; that sensation brings me life. I don’t explain it like this to people often, however. I usually just say I like geology, I usually just say the shifting of tectonic plates is fascinating, I usually just say that the fact that islands can just be pushed up from the sea feels like fantasy. However nothing has been usual, much less explainable, about the last few days of my life.
