My Mother's Book. Top Story - October 2026.
It's only a transcendental irony that this story should be published during the harvest season. Some kind of cruel twist of fate that will make it seem like this is just another legend of ghosts, goblins, and vampires. But this is no yarn woven around the campfire on all hallows eve. It is as real as you sitting here reading my words this very moment. Not the kind of reality men see, but the kind that dwells within the bosom with an inward warmth. Humans come to expect things, things they take for granted yet they barely understand.

The Nugget Farm. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
The Nugget Farm By Hattie Man Chapter One The smell came first. Before the light, before the sound, before her eyes opened and she understood where she was, there was the smell — iron and ammonia and something sweetly rotten, the way a butcher's dumpster smells on the third day of a heat wave. It crawled into her sinuses and stayed there, coating the back of her throat with every breath.

The Quiet Channel
You don’t expect anything strange from the weather radio. That’s the whole point. After the derecho last spring—after the sky turned the color of old bruises and the power lines snapped like bones—I wanted something predictable, steady, and that didn’t lie.

The Halloween mystery of the blonde girl on her bike
A Halloween Mystery On October 31st, 2018, it was my first Halloween in this particular home. I purchased candy in case any children knocked on the door and I placed Bible tracks in each bag praying they would be read.

Dead air on the dial.. Content Warning.
The blood was the loudest part. Not the sound of it—because spilling blood is surprisingly quiet, a soft, wet hiss against the hardwood floor—but the sheer, overwhelming volume of it. Brenta never knew a human body could hold that much. It pooled around Erik’s head, soaking into his light hair, turning the pale rug a deep, angry maroon.

Drive-in Movie Night. Top Story - September 2026.
All small towns have their urban legends. Some have a murderer that roams the area around a specific holiday, while others claim that aliens or ghosts appear after midnight. The list could go on forever. I remember when Scary Movie 3 came out and my friends and I saw it for the first time. The random, mysterious "seven days" phone calls never seemed that scary to us. We always found a way to break down a movie and strip the fear away. We would even look up real urban legends to see if anything similar had ever actually happened. Whenever we found something promising, though, it usually ended up debunked, or we'd find a news report noting that the police had caught a human culprit.

We are Still Here. Top Story - September 2026.
Jonah Cross drove his car down the long highway listening to that old Tiffany song he liked so much as he found himself driving through a stretch of the lonely highway that he hated with a passion. It wasn't a long stretch, but it was there.

The Jake Bird Hex
Five deaths built the legend. A sixth remains disputed. Nobody ever mentioned a seventh – until now. December 6, 1947, Pierce County Superior Courthouse. The ornate, gothic structure stood tall against the Tacoma, Washington skyline. Inside something routine was about to become sinister.

Stitch: The Crossing Wail
Cemetery Road stretched empty ahead of her, the sky washed in a dull, winter‑leaning light that made everything look a little colorless. Sara passed the turnoff toward Beaver Pond without slowing — the trees around it were bare, the water barely visible through the branches, just a flash of dark glass between trunks. She didn’t want to think about the pond today.
