HAT MAN
The Top Hat Demon as he was called in the 18th century where its origins began. A demon I whispered to myself, not to alarm my kid sister who was siting next to me. Reading story after story of many people around the world who had seen this Hat Man as children made me stop for a minute to gather my thoughts. Walking to the kitchen window retracting the curtain I starred at the dark street with limited light upon it from an old light pole. Sighing, and realizing, I also saw the Hat Man.

The New Miss Lasthome
The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. It was a landscape of clustered holes—like honeycombs, lotus pods, colanders, pockmarks. Nothing moved or changed, and the rocks were as still and gray as the moon above. The Judge walked up behind her, dragging his cords and cables behind him like a wedding train, and placed his hand on her shoulder. They looked out at the world together.

Even she knew that her government disapproved. Her real name was in Shanghai Chinese Sign Language for Water Life Death, but in English, her name was May Be Wrong.

The Sun Burns Fierce Behind the Last Window
The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. Black-out curtains blocked all but the upper panel. Blood-red light reflected across her green-trimmed white cotton robe and shimmered as if she were mortally wounded.

Chronicles of Red
Entry Red Hood July 1, 2050 Prologue It’s been 25 years since the bombs fell or as we call it now “Light Of God” destroyed life as we knew it. It did all the damage that was predicted. What we didn’t expect was it would open random portals or as we call them “Windows with No View”, to another planet or universe….we don’t really know. We couldn’t see through these “Windows”, since these idiots destroyed the world they also destroyed almost all of the technology, so no drones, robots etc. So they had to send human Scouts through the “Windows” to satisfy curiosity. After a few hundred of their best scouts went through and none of them returned, they stopped and put security areas around these Windows. What we do know is what was on the other side had been watching us for a long time and they had plans for us.

A horrific story of my grandfather served in the Vietnam War
Hello everyone, I hope you're ready for chapter 3. I have a collection of the creepiest tales found on the internet. Do you think you can handle them, or are you too scared? I guess we'll see. Let's journey further into this series. My grandfather told me a story about his time in Vietnam. Written by Jaybird RS, my grandfather served in the Vietnam War. I was always fascinated by his time in the service, but my mother instructed me not to ask him about it from a young age. I never did, but he would bring up little bits and pieces from time to time. It wasn't often though. My grandfather was a kind, yet strict man. My grandmother told me that he was a laid-back and calm man before the war, but afterwards he became the old-hearted man that I knew growing up. I distinctly remember playing with military toys as a kid, and he just walked in and shook his head, saying it wasn't like that. What I'm trying to say is that, although I love my grandfather, he can be a cold man sometimes, and I don't blame him. I didn't see the horrors that he saw, and time has taken a toll on my grandfather. All these years of smoking have finally caught up with him, and for the last few weeks he's been in a hospital on his deathbed. The cancer has spread from his lungs to the rest of his body. I've been spending a lot of time beside his bed, just keeping him company or watching TV with him. Recently, he has been telling stories - some about his childhood, raising my mother, old school friends - while others, and more importantly, have been about his time in Vietnam.
