Garden of Nightmares
The old Victorian house at the end of Willow Street was a place of rumors and whispered legends. In the overgrown garden that surrounded it, there grew a sinister flower known as the "Venom Blossom." Its delicate petals, a dark shade of crimson, concealed a malevolence that few could resist. Once the Venom Blossom took root, it ensnared your soul, and you would be forever tormented by the darkest nightmares and consumed by sinister urges.

Haunted ship at sea
The sky is gladly donating its happiness to the community, the sun is gleaming with joy, and the ‘Out At Sea‘ ship is well… having its dull moments under the ray of the sunshine. My name is Tamika, I live with my elder brother Jack, mum and dad. I am a professional ghost buster my dad is a retired doctor, and my mum and brother have no job. I am working on a really interesting investigation about a boat called Out At Sea, the has been some really suspicious, ghostly, activity on there and recently a lot of murders and deaths taking place around the area, and today I had to go explore INSIDE of it, which I was kind of scared, I‘m scared of spirits, always have been, good or bad, each one be on my bad side. “ Mum, I am almost ready just have to finish packing up the camophlage equipment them I am ready to head out.” I stated. “ Sure honey just be careful I really do not want anything to happen to you.“ Mum replied, in a worried voice. Well I could not blame her, your child going to some abandoned ship you would be worried of limits. Jack came in with his so called signature funny face and tried his best to make me laugh. “ Oh I’m Tamika and I’m so scared of ghosts and spirits hahah!” He said, in a voice that sounded nothing like mine. Well I got to admit, he wasn’t wrong. I went downstairs and grabbed a couple of his biscuits as revenge, I honestly hopped that looked cool but I really looked like somewon who wanted to be cool instead. Dad and mum gave me a nice hug and mum broke down, as usual my annoying brother fixed me with a hard stare as I left. I got into the taxi as I waved bye to my family. “ So where we going, airport, beach, shopping mall, where to? “ The driver asked. I told him my desination just to recive a great shock. “ You do know it is an abandoned ship, it has been all over the news.” He replied. Shivers ran down my spine as I started to rethink my little adventure, job and all sorts of other things I was silent for the rest of the journey until I reached. I finally got there. The gloomy, dull ship, was a wonderful contrast to the spiritual, yellow ray of the sunshine. I stepped onto the ground and minisucle grains of sand maneged to tickled my feet. I swam all the way to the ship and finally got on board, and all the ghostly energy hit me the minute I amounted onto the ship. I took a deep breath and took a couple steps forward. I heard a finger clicking sound, I brought out the black light which is something with can reveal everything that can’t be seen with the human eye. I saw splotches of blood all around me, with rusty metal making an uncomfortable noice, and the rotten smell of food invaded the nose. Each of the five sences were destroyed including tast with the levitating smoke. I went into a room and saw a silhouette at the door. “ ur uh what are you doing cruel human.” The ghost said. It’s marble eyes being a threat. I took a quick picture and ran back home. “ Aw home so soon.”
