The Hollows

Jaws Of Death
Deep below the ocean, terror awaits. It can be a beautiful place, full of pretty sea life, however there is still plenty to fear, the deeper you dive. Upon the bottom of the sea, there are hideous creatures like something out of a nightmare. Fish with the faces of demons, eyes big and grotesque and fangs larger than horns. It is not just within the oceans where fierce beasts live, but it is also in swamplands where alligators and crocodiles lurk, preying on unsuspecting victims. Imagine swimming in a lake, just having fun during the summer. It could be a great day, that's about to become horrible, as two giant jaws open beneath you, snapping down upon your tender flesh. The teeth tearing your body to pieces, as the hungry water lizard eats you alive, leaving behind a pool of blood and torn rags. It would be an awful fate, full of agony and terror. It's not just the large and reptilian that is a threat either, there are tiny fish named piranhas, that could easily overwhelm you before they strike. A million stings all over, as your once smooth skin becomes mincemeat, attracting even more hungry devils to feast upon your remains. It's disturbing how a nice day out can

Here's a terrifying thought, what if the dead rose from their graves and feasted upon the living? Like something out of a cult horror film, the likelihood of this ever happening is most definitely impossible. However, modern media has depicted zombie outbreaks, in a much more believable fashion. The possibility of a world ending virus isn't something alien, we've already experienced several deadly diseases and plagues across the world. So to imagine a virus that not only killed thousands, but also deteriorated the minds and bodies of many, into becoming mindless cannibals, limping from one human meal to the next. Suddenly that idea doesn't seem too far fetched, there are also dozens of movies, TV shows and books that explore this horrifying possibility. Some have made the link between rabies, a disease that turns once calm and loyal pets, into rage filled beasts. What if a virus like that, eventually effected humans? It could spell the end of society as we know it. Other sources have linked the idea of Cordyceps, a fungi which possesses the bodies of ants in order to spread, to one day evolve into infecting humans, turning us into hideous monsters who only live to breed without intellect.
