    Cascade Falls – Part One

    The light from the lamp flooded over the paper on which she wrote, keeping shadows at bay while the night crept on. Her eyes threatened to shut of their own accord, and fatigue settled into her bones. At times her vision blurred. She found it hard to focus on her task. Every scratch of the ...

    A New Chapter

    I typically prefer to write fiction, particularly something that involves a bit of creepiness. However, a recent family event inspired me to write something different. My daughter, Rachael, got married on May 10th, 2019. She and her husband, Troy, have now begun an exciting new chapter in their lives. The jubilation everyone felt went beyond ...

    Searching

    A figure walks towards a forest wearing a plain white dress, clutching a child wrapped in red cloth close to her chest. There’s a cape draped around her shoulders. The figure adjusts the bundle in her arms to pull the hood up over her frizzy, messy bun she had put her hair into. Around her, ...

    In The Valley Of Our Yesteryear

    An old man bent, stooped amidst the passing crowd as the summer day wore on, and the heat along with it. The park had a pleasant breeze rolling in from the north to stave off the sun’s blazing glare. He stared at a tall oak tree that took residence in the park’s nexus. Here, sidewalks ...

    Waiting, Wishing

    The door to the restaurant opened and I willed him to walk through, but only watched as a couple with their toddler hustled in from the rain. The patter on the rooftop mingled with the low dim of voices as I sat, waiting. I sat next to the window and watched people dart around puddles, ...

    Terror In The Tunnels

    Maddie, a horror novelist, wakes and rolls to her side. She burrows under the purple, quilted comforter, not yet ready to begin her day — a floorboard creaks. The sound of deep, raspy breathing inside her bedroom startles her. Maddie’s eyes fly open, and her stomach sinks as she catches sight of a man at ...

    Refresh: How They Came to Be – Part Three

    Read Part One Read Part Two — Armed guards broke down the door and came in single file, breaking off to cover the room. Their laser-sighted weapons pinpointed the heads of both Wex and Paragon. The two raised their hands as a show of surrender. Remus walked in behind them. His face held an edge of disappointment. ...

    Lily

    “Lily, slow down!” Lily didn’t want to wait for Mommy. After three days of rain, Mommy finally said it was time visit Daddy. So, Lily kept running, she knew the way.

    Content Warning: Graphic sexual content Read: Part One His heart railed against his chest as though it wanted to escape. The gun felt weighted, heavy enough where the point of the muzzle dipped. But he did not shake. And there, Remus Harbor stood, all smiles, and a blank slate behind grey eyes. He revealed nothing. ...
