The Accident
Earth is overcrowded with people, and there aren’t enough resources to sustain life for all. So, the government hired scientists to figure out a way to kill off kids under the age of 20 without raising questions. Seven of the smartest scientists were rounded up, and taken to a secret lab in Nevadah. Amanda Shaw, a British scientist that specializes in the study of cells, and her associate Daemon Bates, who studies how traits are inherited, were the first two to start working in the lab. But, it wasn’t enough they needed other people with other skill sets they didn’t have. That’s when Carrie Wilson, who studies the spread of diseases, Edgar Knox, who Studies blood, and its disease, Freya Rose, a chemist, Ivy Miller, who Studies viruses, and Griffin Lee, a specialist in infectious disease joined Bates, and Shaw to figure things out. It took 3 years for a breakthrough to happen, but it wasn’t how they expected it to be.

Ring Around the Rosie
I dart down the hall, gasping for air, Constantly checking behind me to see if I've lost her. I stop for just a moment to catch my breath, and BAM, Rosie is standing there. Right in front of me. Those little black glossy eyes, her curly brown locks, laying against her cold porcelain cheek. Then the music starts playing "Ring around the Rosie. Pocket full of posies. Ashes, Ashes We all fall down." It continues to play slowly, giving you chills up your spine. Then you hear it "Run before I catch you."

Ghost Ship
I wasn’t sure if it was a dream or if it was real. I was on heading west on the Pacific Ocean on my thirty-foot yacht gliding the ocean not too far from the California Coast. The sun was beginning to set and the sky was glowing pink when I saw it. It was a ship of some kind that didn’t appear to be of our time, 2021. It looked out of place and from an earlier time. I couldn’t make out what kind of ship it was since it was on the horizon of the sinking sun.

The Ship That Never Came To Shore
The locals in the little beach community had always been very calm and cool. It was a smaller city outside of the huge metropolis, ships came in and out the port to get supplies or to bring in supplies. Ships and boats were constantly rented out for parties and events from the shore. But there was this one instant where a boat had just sat out and never came in for weeks. People talked in the city about the "ship on the horizon" because all you could see was the ship, not the people and it would never come in.

Moll Pitcher
She stood facing the large window overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. She heard the rumbling of the auditorium behind her as people filled in the seats. She watched as the ship in the far horizon slowly slipped away into the sunset. She desperately wanted to be aboard that ship- but she had a job to do here, and she could not just leave. She summed a welcoming smile and turned to face the guest.

Why do we like horror films?
There are various answers to that question but I think most of the answers are linked to the way we live today. In the developed world, people live in such safe and cushioned environments, that a lot of them are very unlikely to experience strong emotions like fear or emotional pain in their daily lives. After an adrenaline rush people can feel happy and relaxed, so being in a cinema and experiencing a scary movie is like simulating dealing with a real life threat in fake circumstances and also then simulating the reward felt after that experience. It could be therapeutic because it could suggest to a viewer, that some of our fears are not as real as we imagine them to be, or that threats in real life are not always as hard to deal with as we first thought.

Here are some of the legends in urban Korean that will make you hair stands on end.

The Mural
Russell Storm’s ignored conscience had become so calloused from decades of neglect, that it was hard as rock. Not just any rock… his conscience was as impenetrable as granite. Scratch as one might to tug at his cold heart for even a flicker of remorse or guilt; the only emotion that would scrape forth was amused annoyance.
