Witches with Twitches
Yes, Halloween is fast coming. Soon those broom-riding ladies with the pointed hats will be filling the skies. They are the most lasting symbols of this time through the years. Always considered ugly or evil they have always been feared. The main things which symbolize witches are broomsticks, cauldrons, and black cats.

The Homeless Lady with the Evil Eye
Joe was delivering a package out in the San Fernando Valley one day and got the evil eye from a homeless lady. Yes he did! The evil eye was shot towards his direction for just being at the wrong place and time. It was quite evil since it had no purpose. It came from what Joe thought was an insane person. Still, after all the crap that went down, Joe thinks that the evil was alleviated with positive praying when the actual curse was being cast at him.

Payne of the Bites (Pt. 5)
"Deep below the underground lab facility, every known staff and assistant who had launched on a scientific discovery leading to combat now faced annihilation and terrible risk." Originally intended as a test subject to replicate the highly trained assassin John Wick, the test subject has now gone completely feral within the lab. After slaughtering hundreds of armed soldiers occupying the lab, the facility's higher-ups elected to shut off the whole underground laboratory within hours of the attack. Except for the higher-ups, no one understood why the bio weapon had decided to turn on its creators."

Payne of the Bites (Pt. 3)
"A lab assistant and her boss finally stop walking back and forth from deep beneath to celebrate their latest scientific discovery." They were about to hang up the phone with the Umbrella Corporation, a bio-warfare firm, when the request to begin testing on the new specimen itself arrived. The bio-specimens that the subterranean lab had been working on consistently began to evolve into John Wick, the heir to the Legendary Hitman Agent 47 and the Baba Yaga himself.

Growing up Haunted
A lot of people talk about going ghost hunting. Some people even talk about seeing ghosts. With all the shows on television about them and the supernatural, everyone seems to be an expert on what's real and what's overdone, or clearly just staged. I would like to tell you a story today. Not made up or exaggerated. This is a factual story about the home I grew up in and what happened while I lived there. Nothing is being exaggerated or added. This was my earliest memories up until the time I was 18 and moved away from this house. Ghosts and the supernatural shouldn't be taken lightly. It is nothing to mess around with, and it can be very dangerous.

Encounters with a Shadow Man
About 20 years ago, I fell asleep in my daughter's bedroom while watching movies on her VCR. At around 4:00 AM, I found myself in that state that is between being asleep and awake. This is difficult to explain to those who have not had any such experience, but your mind is awake and aware, you can open your eyes, but the rest of your body is not able to move or react. On this particular morning, I perceived what looked to be the shadow of a man who was about seven feet tall. He was standing in the doorway watching me. My great grandma always said that if you encounter a spirit you should ask it, "What in the Name of the Lord do you want?" She said if it was evil, it would vanish.

Haunted House on the Hill
I grew up in a small town in Botetourt County, Virginia, and we lived off the main highway. My great grandmother had cousins who lived just up the hill behind our house. As a little girl, I always felt uncomfortable in their house but did not know why. They had a black clock that was about three feet high and whenever it chimed, chills would go down my spine. In 1969, this family moved in with relatives and built a brand new home in the same spot as their old one. It was beautiful to look at but still for me had that eerie feeling when I went inside.

Spector on Route 460 East
In the spring of 2005, my oldest son was in his final year at Radford University. He had his own apartment, but often came home on the weekends. He always left to return to school at about 4 or 5 PM to make sure he got enough rest for Monday. On this one Sunday however, "Jr." was running late and I asked him to stay overnight. He said if he did, he might not wake up the next morning in time to make it to his first class. It was rainy and cool and I had that mother's intuition that something bad was going to happen, but I accepted my son's decision and prayed for him.

10 Hot Onscreen Vampires
There is just something about vampires that intrigue us. Maybe it’s the fascination with good versus evil… or maybe it’s because vampires represent an exaggerated version of humanity: suffering from our past demons, wanting what we can’t have, and being afraid of death.
