The Blizzard Cabin
I can’t remember how we ended up here. “You forgot to fill up before leaving, huh?” Laura mocked me as we came to a stop in front of an old building. My old red Honda couldn’t handle the cold and I swear I checked the antifreeze before leaving for our last adventure before Laura’s wedding.

The Dead of Night
It had to have been about 3 or 4 hours before we stumbled upon the cabin, but at least it was early morning now. The sun started to appear over the horizon, and the birds began to sing. I was so tired I could barely stand, not to mention, my ankle was still very sore. The woman helped me sit down on the front steps. "Stay here", she said sternly, "once it's clear, I'll help you inside". I sat there quietly for a moment, “wait, what? What do you mean ‘clear out’?”, I questioned as I turned towards the cabin door. Fear and worried thoughts flooded my mind. I tried to shake the thought of something happening to Kyle and Lily, maybe they were just hiding… hopefully. The woman came out to the front porch minutes later with blood dripping off her sword, “it’s safe now”, she stated slightly out of breath. Chris stepped out onto the porch shortly after her, “those kids you told us about… they aren’t here. I don’t think they ever were…”, he said as he looked the woman in the eyes with concern. “What do you mean they were never here? I just saw them yesterday… they have to be here. We have to keep looking.”, I proclaimed anxiously. The woman sighed, “you stay here and keep an eye on her while I go help your father clear out the walkers. We’ll stay here for the night and head back to camp in the morning, okay?”, she stated to Chris with confidence, he nodded, then she stepped back into the cabin.

October Nights
The air is crisp and cold. The wind brushes the leaves against my cheek. A cool autumn night, and a bright full moon. I'm walking home from the library in town, although I live on the other side of town, but it's not too far if I cut through the woods. I've never been afraid of walking through the woods at night, but this is the first time walking while there is a full moon. However, tonight especially, it gives me the comfort I need knowing that there's always some light in the midst of darkness. Who would've thought that walking alone at night could be so peaceful. Just the sound of the leaves crunching beneath my feet, the wind whispering, and the trees sawying back and forth. Suddenly, a fog just happened to roll in. As I continue further walking, the fog gets so thick, I can barely see. I hear a twig snap, making me jump a bit. I turned around to see what it was, but I can't see a thing in this thick fog. It was probably just a squirrel or a rabbit nearby. Where the heck am I now? It never really takes me this long to get back home. Looking at my cellphone for the time, it's 10PM. Great, my phone just died, so much for using my flashlight. I hear another twig snap, I jolt my head, making my neck crack. That really hurt. But the twig snap sounded really close, and quite frankly, pretty loud. As if it was a huge animal stepping on a fallen branch. I shrugged it off. At this point I just wanna get home. Trying to pick up my pace, as of now, my walking turned into speed walking. I hear another snap, right behind me this time. I stopped dead in my tracks, can't even see my own breath in this sheet of fog. Everything fell silent now. The wind stopped, the trees stood tall and still. What is going on tonight? Right behind me, an eerie sound. Like a large animal, growling. I slowly turned around, trying not to get myself scared. I hear the growling, but I don't see it. I tried to look a little closer, and I never thought I would see something so horrifying. All I see, bright eyes, like amber. It snarled, I can see it's sharp teeth, as if it was trying to smile. It's eyes met mine, and I'm only 5'5". That's when I knew how big this thing is. As soon as it took one step close, I bolted running. I can hear it chasing me, but I still can't see where I'm running to through this fog. All that's going through my mind is get out of these woods and somewhere safe. I can now see the edge of the woods, and a streetlight. My legs are throbbing from running. I rushed out into the middle of the street, I turned around, that thing, it stopped. I took a minute to catch my breath. Looking into the woods, it's steeped in fog. Where did it go? It stopped chasing me. That's odd. I'm just glad that I was able to find the road. I turned around to start walking, and bumped right into this gentleman standing right behind me.

Movie Review: 'Saw 4' Showed How a Great Series Maintains Momentum
Saw celebrates humanity while exploring its degradation and destruction. The point of the series has always been about the character of Jigsaw, played by Tobin Bell, teaching the lecherous and lethargic to appreciate the gift of life. It's a bizarre and ingenious idea for a horror film and, in its fourth installment, Saw brought both closure and new beginnings to its stories of human misery, sadness and redemption.

Movie Review: 'Spiral' Doesn't Quite Live Up to the Legacy of Saw'
It’s rather appropriate that Chris Rock would use the Saw horror franchise as a means to send a message regarding Police Reform. The Saw franchise is one of the most thoughtful and conscientious franchises in the history of American horror. The film's messages regarding valuing your life and paying dearly for your sins make it one of the strangest and most fascinating franchises Hollywood has ever produced.
