Pathogen, Ch. 9
"Maryanne, get behind me," Lt. Nightingale ordered calmly. "Do it now, but don't make any sudden movements. Understand?" Marnie's throat tightened with a dry swallow, her eyes darting back and forth to her zombified classmate and the Glock her mother had pointed at his face. "Mom, wait," she begged. "Y-You don't have to shoot him!"

The Cursed Lullaby
The Cursed Lullaby Ashford, a small town known for its eerie quietness, was home to the old Wrenwood mansion, rumored to be haunted. The mansion had stood empty for decades, but local legends whispered of strange sounds coming from the house at night, flickering lights in the upper windows, and a haunting lullaby playing in the dead of night.

The Curse of Beaver Falls. Content Warning.
The winter has been long, cold, and dark, yet the people of Beaver Falls had been holding out as long as possible. Many regretted their choice to move into the small settlement in the middle of the mountains while others begged for a painless death. Everywhere one looked, all they would see was misery. For some reason, the only one who seemed to be doing well was Mr. Delenore the grumpy old miner who lived on the outskirts of town. Most people thought he was just a crazy, lonely man with too much time on his hands after the mine closed down for the season, but, as each day passed, he seemed to grow more feral, like a dog falling to the symptoms of rabies. Rebecca, a young woman of eighteen, didn't mind him, though. He was always so kind to her, offering her the extra meat in his ice box to make sure she was well-fed, and she always checked in on him, running errands for him and bringing him news from the rest of the settlers. “Good afternoon, Mr. Delenore,” Rebecca said as she walked up to the door of his log cabin, holding the bag of groceries she had been sent to get. “You're not going to believe it, but they had more of that licorice candy you like so much.” Mr. Delenore smiled as he reached for the bag she offered him. “It's about damn time,” he commented as he started to search the bag. “I’ve been nagging old Mr. Stuart to get the candy for almost a month now.” Used to the way Mr. Delenore liked to complain about everything, Rebecca smiled and sat down in the old, wooden rocking chair next to him.

The Haunting of Ashford Manor
Ashford Manor has always been a subject of local legends. His towering stone walls and Epheus windows embedded in the hills of the sleepy village of Briarwood seemed to have seen the city with a sense of calm prediction. The Manor House was abandoned for decades, and the once large hall became hollow with forgotten memories. Villagers whispered the story - there was also a language of treasure hidden deep within the walls, but others claimed that the curse had hit the property long ago.
