The Subway Succubus

Alex Lumley was a little taken aback when the pretty girl with red hair suddenly hopped in his lap and started grinding her hips against him. He was travelling on the last subway from the airport. It was late and the only other person in the carriage was an old woman in a shawl with a quilt wrapped around her […]

A Sacrificial Ball

Bella and her husband Douglas held a Gaelic themed party in the woods just south of their small town in northeast Ohio on the Saturday night before Halloween every year. They called it a Samhain festival, or just “Samhain.” Douglas pronounced the name with more Irish brogue than he normally used which caused Bella to roll her eyes. “Samhain” was […]

The Witch

Grace was an old woman now, and she was about to die, but neither of those things were really what was bothering her. Rather, she was thinking about the conversation she would have before she died, one she’d known was coming all along but still wasn’t ready for. Because when are we ever ready, really? Grace was so old that […]

Desire unknown: Early Night

‘When you run for your life, a tight skirt is not what you want to be in.’ The long-haired brunette must have been caught by surprise, with no supply’s and no weapons running barefoot in a black skirt and white shirt along the cold cracked city pavements. ‘Gotten far too comfortable where she was, probably convinced herself she could wear […]

Halloween in the New Neighborhood

I had finally finished unpacking in my new small condo when I realized it was Halloween. You have no idea how many times I’ve had to move lately for this reason or that. Last time I had an asshole of a landlord that came onto me one too many times. Before that was a psycho ex-boyfriend who began stalking me. […]

A Tentacle Dream

Hallie was struggling with her backpack. If she had known how heavy the equipment was, she would have asked some friends to come out and help her. Damn camera gear. You think Blare Witch Project would have shown how heavy the batteries were. There were three people. Hallie pulled out the map and compass. Stupid GPS being so expensive. Stupid […]

Shadows of My Imagination

My name is Matt Stewart. I’m in my late twenties and working for a property development company in El Paso Texas. I’m pretty good at what I do and have always had aspirations of owning my own real estate company. I used most of my early commissions to flip a couple of inner-city houses. This gave me enough cash for […]

She

Rending flesh makes a distinctive sound. It’s hard to describe. Like ripping apart your roast chicken. But wetter. The grind of straining cartilage, the snap of bone. The ragged, frantic tear of stretched muscle and flesh. The liquid spatter of blood and fluids. It’s a sound you can only truly begin to describe once you’ve experienced it. Unfortunately, most who […]

She Died

She died. She fucking died right there on top of him and it happened at what had to be the worst imaginable time. Eric was there, balancing on the edge, just about to make that one ecstatic, beautiful plunge into the very depths of her when she gasped loudly, her eyes went white and she died. Eric had to think […]

She Came In …

She came in through the bathroom window. That’s how they got us. We thought we were doing pretty good up until then, all things considered. We were caught out in the open when it happened, driving down I-35 to visit family in Kansas City. We only made it as far as Des Moines before we hit one of the quarantine […]
