Spook-tober 2025, Day #10
Paranormal, by Amber Averay Something is following me. I turn around, but see nothing. Just the empty street, the night’s darkness weakly held at bay beneath each flickering yellow streetlight we pass under. A few steps ahead, my sister and mother laugh and dissect the cheesy movie we just saw. They’re happy, oblivious to theContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025, Day #10”

Casualty Leo Driver Casualty: After looking at this so many times, there’s nothing that I witnessed that I could call such a thing. Why? Because of one thing; None of them were human, let alone were they killed by “accident”. Who were they and why were they treated in such horrid ways? I’ll never knowContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 15”

Casualty I’m doomed to walk this place forever, And I will never know why. So much has happened, And I stood idly by. I wasn’t the cause, But I did nothing to assist. I thought it would never effect me, But I was wrong. I walked through the fire, And got burned. I would takeContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 15”

Glass Heart Leo Driver A being made of melting sand, beating off the sun endlessly sounding dull, tired of itself too. Weakness is its only friend for no one wants to stay with paper-thin skin and a dryer throat that becomes grating to healthy ears. A life of solitude is all it knows—walls so sterileContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 14”

Death’s Siren Leo Driver Things have been hard lately. Everyday I hear a song playing from a bottomless pit. It sounds so enticing, like it knows how I feel, but I resist for its a lie too. I don’t know how long it’s been since the day my life shattered like a cursed mirror. MyContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 13”

Haunted Gameshow, by Amber Averay Whispers whooshing through the halls, Memories seeping through the walls. Sounds of laughter, sobbing tears; Air redolent with hopes and fears. This place of promise offered much: Winnings gifted at the briefest touch Of a button, a buzzer, a ringing bell; Answers shouted in a rising swell. But nothing hereContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025, Day #9”

Breaking Waves Leo Driver I’m drowning. I’ve been crying, but nothing comes out, only bubbles that pop just belore the surface. The waves were especially cruel tonight, the journey was smooth sailing the fortnight before this dreadful winter night. The day before was spent in victory of another successful trip, especially after sinking an opposingContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 11”

IContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 10”
