Never go in the woods alone
As she ran through the woods, her feet hit the moss with a thud each time. It was getting dark, and she was already late. Glancing down at the watch on her wrist, a gift from her grandmother, Lucy, didn’t see the branch fall. A crack echoed through the forest walls, the small animals running for cover. They sensed the danger before she had. Usually careful, the tall brunette was taking chances. She didn’t see the shadow that had been watching her from the edge of the water. As she fell face-first into the deeply cushioned ground cover, her body stiffened. The sound of footsteps broke her groans. She hadn’t planned on being out this late, and given her track record with strangers, this was a big mistake.

A Modest Meal
It is said that Scientology was started after a wager made by Isaac Asimov to L. Ron Hubbard that the latter could not start a religion. It is said that a similar wager led to the creation of the restaurant I ate at tonight. It is uncertain whether it was Musk and Batali or Zuckerberg and Marco Pierre White, and one could never tell, for the kitchen was most certainly closed to prying eyes, but it was the same sort of combination of derring-do and disregard that led to the existence of Swift’s.

Vile Deeds
A ray of sunlight snakes through long, vertical blinds, finding rest on Johnny Malone’s pale face. His eyelids flutter, but when he inadvertently moves his head, bright light catches him full-on. Groaning, he rolls over, squeezing the lids tightly shut.

Jacks Windfall 5
He sat down at a table in the back. The waitress was a teenager, bored and hating the sudden influx of people this lonely afternoon. Jack ordered a burger and a coke, and watched the door. The door opened to reveal his pursuer. She was a dirty blonde with a thick shaggy cut, wearing a standard medical mask under her brown eyes. She was dressed plain, but was trying so hard to be inconspicuous that she drew everyone’s attention. Well, if there was anyone other than the waitress, hostess, and himself in the dining area. Realizing she was caught, she immediately sat at the nearest table to her, and ordered a coffee.

Sh*t in One Hand & Wish in the Other
HOUR TWENTYONE Luck is a meaningless four-letter word that builds empty hope on broken promises and forgotten wishes. No, I do not believe in luck anymore, and I’m a better human being for it! I seem to be getting ahead of myself a bit here, though. Let me take a few steps back and catch you up to speed on the events which took place just prior to my current position.

Kill Me or I'm Dreaming
A scythe. Reflecting sun rays from the wide bedroom window brilliantly, it gleamed above my face dauntingly. Pale brown and slender fingers wrapped themselves tight around its staff. I fixed my eyes to rest on the being that held it. Looming over me while paying me little mind.

The Ashen Horse
The dead banker body was completely lifeless. Her blood slowly seeping into the ground. The grass appeared slightly dry, and it actually looked like it welcomed the steady flow of blood that was leaching around it. The woman watched a flower that the banker had somehow missed when she collapsed, appear to open it’s leaves and pedals as the blood oozed near it. Interesting. She didn’t know if she had ever taken the time to observe that before.

Survival Of The Fittest
Cobar slogged along Phoenix Avenue with no protection from the belting rain. Dragged down by his faded blue jeans and mellow yellow polo top he closed himself against the storm's mild gusts.

Brain food
I'm a lover of movies and tv series that force me to think outside the box, I call it brain food. I love horror films and movies with twist that I have a hard time guessing the ending. If it doesn't force me to think or frighten the crap outta me in some sort of way whats the point of watching it right?! When I was young my favorite show was the twilight zone I mean at 12 years old I couldn't have enough of "Twilight zone" "Goosebumps " or "Beyond belief factor fiction ", now that I think about it my friends would never wanna watch movies with me now I understand why. I was actually thrilled when I found out about the reboot of The twilight zone in 2019 s but its already been discontinued (bummer) so it's only right that I begin there. 1) twighlight zone always had me at the edge of my seat wondering what's next. I begin watching it as a kid and it was addictive. Number 2 on my list "The sixth sense" Like omg who could guess that ending I absolutely loved it kept me on the edge of my seat and amazed at the ending. It's a oldie but goodie (3) Where's Monday that movie had me on the edge of my seat who guessed the ending cause I sure did not see that coming (Netflix keep doin ya thang baby)... Number (4) I absolutely have love love this series watched them all prolly 5 times each... I'm sorry but it's my all time favorite and it would've should've been number 1 but I decided to go a different route (drum roll please) ANCIENT ALIENS it's like traveling and learning +mind food I absolutely love it and can't get enough of their explorations, theories and myths. Ancient Aliens for you to think outside the box and learn about some really amazing places. #5 "2 sentence horror stories I wanna say this I wasn't frighten by the small clips but it definitely forced me to think. Two sentence horror stories always end with a twist. The two sentence quotes at the end made the shows so worth watching force you to think. I even remember saying after a clip "maybe my job isn't that important " . (6) The haunting at hill house. The ending is everything and will have you questioning what in the world just happened, I love mind benders and this Netflix series was just that, a absolute mind bender. my most recent watch is nunber ( (7) "BEHIND HER EYES" ( When I write in caps yes I'm screaming!!!) it's a newby but wow it was enticing I was so on the edge and that ending I never seen it coming, I must admit I was confused in the beginning but by the end everything makes sense, I loved it. Number (8)The taking of Deborah Logan. Man that movies scared the living crap outta me, I haven't been that scared since a kid when "Tale from the crypt" came on and he would jump out that casket and scared the crap outta me every time. I loved watching these movies with my rose quartz candles lit and my red cozy blanket. I know most prefer wine while watching a great movie but I enjoy a strawberry margarita (salt my rim please) turn the light out and get ready for mind twist and bumps in the night. I always watch cartoons after just me balancing everything out I blame that on me being a Libra and not a scaredy cat. Most of the movies I named are easy to find on Netflix or prime and if you need the info on a perfect margarita I'm your girl. Enjoy.

Tricked by a Ghost
Im weary to share this story publicly because of what people may think or say; but for anyone who is aware enough to think of what lies beyond this realm, well I feel like they deserve to hear this. I won’t preface this with other examples of paranormal activity I have experienced. I feel like this story is strong enough to stand alone; no justification required.

Suspense and Love All In One
If you're anything like me, then you enjoy movies that throw you for a loop at the end. Anything made by M. Night Shyamalan will definitely do that for you. I started out on his movies as a kid. The first movie I ever watched by him was "Signs." That being a great movie, my next I had seen by him was "Split." Split alone was an exceptional movie. But if you enjoyed "Signs" or "Split," then you will enjoy the one I am speaking of now, "The Village," has one heck of an ending that will definitely leave you with many questions that sort of get answered on their own when you sit back and think of how the movie played out.
