Mind games taken way too far; explore the disturbing genre of psychological thrillers that make us question our perception of sanity and reality.
Entertainment Within Despair
One might wonder how we can narrow down the greatest horror films to a select few when the selection is so vast. How to we narrow this number down to a top five, a top ten, or even a top twenty when there are so many great horror films out there to choose from? This isn’t something that’s easy to do, in my opinion it’s next to impossible, but many have done it. I am going to attempt to do it here myself. I can’t narrow down the best of the best. What I can do is name three films have an equal amount of respect and appreciation for. I won’t be naming one over the other, or say one is lower than another, rather I’ll just talk about their strengths, their themes, and just talk about why these movies need to be seen especially around Halloween.

Nightmare Mist
It's a dark night and you're safe in bed. You think nothing can harm you in your own bed. You're drifting asleep, thinking about a creak. The house always creaks sometimes. It's normal as it's settling around you as if the house is breathing and alive. Your room is illuminated by a trusty nightlight. You also believe that the nightlight is your safety along with your trusty 'Dream Catcher', where good dreams pass through, but bad dreams get stuck in the web to be 'dissolved' by the morning sun.

A Mother's worst nitemare
Starting off with my back story. I'm married with a happy little family of one step-daughter and three sons. I don't call her step-daughter because I have been there since she was 2 yrs old so in these stories she will be just daughter. Lately I have been having very vivid nightmares' all including my children in ways a mother would not like to see her babies. The stories might not add up because there isn't really good transitioning cause the stories are from different days about different times. I hope you enjoy these creepy stories because they did creep me out that I couldn't go to sleep until I made sure my kids were fine and everything was alright.

Compelled
Mesmerizing colors of autumn twilight break rays of the dying light upon the entry way. Standing before the majesty of a grand stairway that lingers up twisted dark wood rails stands a solemn figure. No words spoken, just the cold gaze from under old overgrown eyebrows from the figure draped in old grey robes. Stepping at a pace with steady reserve I find a cold steel chill run through me. The old oaken door creeks closed behind me as a faint sound of a bell chimes in the recesses of the upper landing.

Ghost! Was I hallucinating?
Ghost! Really! Hello everyone, I’m Phil and I have always been fascinated with all things Halloween since I was a kid (ghost, sorcerer, witches, etc.). In fact; you can say that I have OHD (Obsessive Halloween Disorder). What I have experienced during this event that I will share with you shortly did scare me, but it has also left me curious, intrigued by what is called; unexplained phenomena or …the supernatural.

Stories of a Life Not So Well Lived
Fear, a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. My palms become damp as I quicken my pace, my feet move faster and faster until I feel like I am running on air. My lungs are burning as my breath escapes me. The deafening sound of my heartbeat rings through my ears, firing off like gunshots in an empty room. Shop after shop, closed. My mind races as I continue the chase in which in I am obviously the prey. Closed, closed, closed, the signs mock me in my feeble attempt to seek asylum. I can hear him.

Identity Lost
With her first step into to the campus, she could feel the change coming her way. The cool breeze carried the scents of pines and oaks and various other trees that she didn’t know the names of, merged into a cocktail of fresh autumn morning. She made her way to the enrollment office as instructed by the email she had been reading over and over again for weeks. Many other students were walking past her. She started imagining all of the future friendships, romances and victories. She was feeling like she had conquered her own country with her talent and now it was time to conquer this one. Her mother’s voice echoed at the back of her head “My cube of talent”. She had seen a phone booth on a corner she walked past, she thought she would call her mum soon.

VR or AR?
When virtual reality headsets came in the 1990s by Nintendo and became a technology sensation in 2016, they only became more popular and more games began to develop. Throughout the years, V.R. technology has expanded to entire helmets and the most expensive - VR Rooms. In 2100, a new game called ‘My Life' released but everyone was suspicious. 'My Life' had to be connected to the owner’s wifi to initiate the game.

Spooky Sunday with Crystal Fortune
Hey guys, it’s your favourite neighbourhood spook detective here, Crystal Fortune! I know I don’t normally put out a blog post on a Sunday as it’s my slot on the radio but I am feeling a bit freaked out which is unusual and I thought you guys could help ground me a bit before I head out to the radio station.
