Spook-tober: Day 2

It used to annoy me, when I was youngContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 1”

Magic It was an unseasonably warm autumn night–the musk of fall felt out of place without the chill. She’d made plans months ago to go walking in the woods up in the hills for the autumn solstice.

Spook-tober: Day 30

Mischief Night There were rattle cans, toilet paper, and silly string tucked away in the backpack they slung over their shoulder.

Old West Justice She wasn’t impressed when her family moved into the small, out of the way town. There was no mall, no real hangout spots at all.

Spook-tober: Day 26

Creature From the Pit It was a dare, and never om his life could he turn down a dare. His friends called him crazy. But he enjoyed living on the edge. It made him feel alive. Since they were small, they’d all been warned away from the woods and the swampy marsh within. It wasContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 26”
