The Madness. Top Story - March 2025.
I nestled deeper into the bed, pleading for sleep to overcome me. It was the same thing every single night. Nothing ever changed. I wrapped my comforter tighter around me willing the plush softness to lull me into a false sense of security. But slumber, as always, eluded me.

On "Hop-Frog" by Edgar Allan Poe . Top Story - March 2025.
"Hop-Frog" is a short, brutal little tale of revenge, one that resonates with the same blackly humorous vibe as "The Cask of Amontillado," although the subtext of buried evil is not present here. The evil, on the other hand, is flagrant and openly visible in the form of the corpulent king and his seven advisers, all described by Poe as "oily fat men." He observes that very lean men are not typically thought of as being "funny."

Pathogen, Ch. 3. Top Story - February 2025. Content Warning.
Marnie walked around in a kind of trance the rest of the day, unable to process what she'd learned in first period. Trevor Kennedy couldn't be dead. There was no way. Based on everything she knew about him - which admittedly wasn't much - he was healthier than a horse; tall, funny, good-natured, and captain of the varsity basketball team. Captains of high school basketball teams did not just drop dead like fruit flies.

The Deportation at Bachelors Grove Cemetery Feb 2025. Top Story - February 2025.
Bachelors Grove Cemetery has been an urban legend in Chicago for decades. Since the late 1950s, strange disturbances plagued the once-forgotten burial ground—graves desecrated, headstones slipped over, and eerie lights flickering through the sparse trees. Paranormal investigators, thrill-seekers, and the occasional criminal prowled the grounds until the police patrolled the area nightly to keep away the curious, the reckless, and those with far darker intentions. The police patrols occasionally would come across something not easily explained away.
