Black Magic
Black magic is simply just a definition of magic. Magic is magic. That’s it. That’s all. People are people. Now, there are good people and there are bad people. There is good magic and there is bad magic. The magic that is referred to throughout this story is one of black magic. Black magic is defined by the summoning of a demonic entity or a negative energy to bring forth a demonic result. An example of this would be an individual using communication with something of that sorts to bring harm to someone else or to bring forth a negative situation. Now, it may not always be for a negative result. You often hear about people selling their souls to the devil or spirits. There are many people who work where they give offerings of blood, hair, or some form of DNA to a demon in return of what they want. That is still black magic. I could easily tell the history behind black magic. However, today I will be telling you the experience of a little girl I knew, named Emilia and her mother, with black magic.

‘The Beach House’ is a Great Place to Stay for Horror Fans
Young couple Emily and Randall (Liana Liberato and Noah Le Gros) travel to a getaway beach house for a weekend of relaxation. On arrival, they find the beach house double-booked with an older couple Jane and Mitch (Maryann Nagel and Jake Weber). There’s a brief period where The Beach House may go down the route of something like Ma or Get Out with the welcoming elders being slightly off. However, the senior pair are actually just warm and friendly. It’s telling how much that idea can be toyed with in the horror field, as so many films overplay the “niceness is camouflage” trope.

"Well that was a mistake"; A Bad Movie Review of Dolly Dearest (1991, Maria Lease)
I really hate dolls in horror movies. Don't get me wrong, I don't find them scary. I find them to be the poorest excuse for a horror antagonist ever conceived. They may be creepy set props but you can not honestly be scared of a doll coming at you with a knife or chainsaw. Ok well, in the ludicrous hypothetical scenario of that happening you'd likely be shitting you pants in terror but as trash movies go, it is a hilarious trope of film making failure. Fair enough if your film is tongue and cheek and not entirely serious, you can pull it off and have something that is genuinely fun and humorous to watch.

Duffel Bag
Slinging my heavy, blue duffel bag over my shoulder, I hurried down the stairs. My best friend, Aaliyah and her family are waiting for me right outside the door, ready to take me to camping with them. It was a ritual we had every summer to celebrate our school accomplishments that year. Just as I was about to open the door, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and behind me was my mother, a worried look on her face. “Be careful out there.” she said. “You do remember that tonight is the anniversary. Don’t you?” My eyes grew wide. No. I did not. In fact, it completely left my mind until now, yet I looked back up at her and nodded. She dropped her hand from my shoulder and I was soon making my way out the door. I looked behind my back. She was still there. So, I gave her a small, reassuring smile. “I’ll be okay. Promise.” I said and with that, Aaliyah’s brother helped me into the car and we were on the road, driving to the campsite.

The Second Coming
The end of the world didn't happen the way people were saying it would. It may come as a surprise to you, but the end wasn't fiery. It wasn't hurricanes, tsunamis or tidal waves destroying whole countries. It wasn't a volcano erupting and burning cities to ash, vaporizing everyone within reach. The governments - which were always corrupt - aren't even trying to hide it anymore. People are more or less slaves to the system, like we always have been but it's been worse the last couple of years.

Playing With Fire
I conceal myself amidst a cluster of bushes, watching the human woman. She arrives nearly every evening, at about the same time. She wanders the docks, as if searching for something. All the while, her eyes remain focused to the entrance of the forest.
