Widow Maker - The city lay shrouded in the distance, looming like a fragile virgin clothed in white. The year was 2785.  Vincent’s keen eyesight cut through the fog, singeing over the towering steel buildings like a guided laser.  He was searching for something lost, something that he would probably never reclaim.  continue

 

The Haunted House - "Over here, I tell you!  The coffin is over here!"  Mona rolled her eyes up at Frank. Idiot. He was acting if he'd found the secret entrance in the wall rather than her. She had a good mind to turn back and let Frank stand his chances of being sacrificed by the coven of she-male vampires that inhabited the dungeon of the castle. . . . continue

The Crying Veil - Anna's eyes widened in terror as the wedding veil she had situated on her head was suddenly covered with blood - drops of blood.  She detected crying, pitiful crying as if someone in her head were in agony.... continue

The Lace Curtain - A Free Short Ghost Story ~ Act III

Against her will, she felt something pulling her along towards the door of the bedroom.  She fell and resisted, only to be drug down the spiral staircase.  

She heard screaming, recognizing it as her own - yet was aware that no one could hear her.  Her house was miles from town and she lived alone.  She knew no one, and no one knew her.

The gates to the graveyard swung open and Kayla was pulled roughly along, her body dragging against the harsh earth.  Next, she was scooped up and tossed, landing with a thud directly beneath the glowing apparition.

"What do you - you want?" Kayla managed to drag out, keenly aware that her demise was near.  She was confused as her own voice echoed from the apparition with a haunting chill, "What do you - you want?"

The howl of a wolf permeated the air and Kayla tried to hone in on its location, her eyes falling to the graveyard as the apparition hovered above her, silent - glowing - faceless yet strangely familiar.  Kayla was startled as the wolf neared her, sniffed and then pushed her aside with his snarled muzzle - then stopped as if someone had tossed a bucket of ice onto his back.

A whine. Cowering....slowly ambling over to Kayla, dragging his hairy gray legs behind him to kneel beside her, as if she were his Queen....his master.  Her hands eagerly went to caress his fur, to touch his pelt, his whiskers, his clawed paws.

Realization struck Kayla, her eyes going to the floating apparition, the face now mirroring her own.  Somewhere in the distance a rooster crowed and she was spiraled into the bowels of her former world filled with radiant heat, with sun-split clouds, with fields of flowering plants and trees, and with lakes holding spawning fish and whose surface appeared as a bright sparkling mirror.

She suddenly understood everything.

Somehow, someway, she had become lost - separated from all that she knew, from her world. And it happened on this October night, this magical Halloween night, when myth begat a Queen and brought her magically home.  

It was the Year of the Rooster, October 31, 1313.

 Dances With Wolfbane - If you will look closely within these shrouded walls, you will see a castle knitted into a cove.  Below the castle lies no gate, lies no walls, lies no clinging ivy - but a thatch of wolfbane, a wilting thatch of wolfbane.  And within the castle walls resides Shernoff, man about the town by day, werewolf by night...continue

I Want to Eat a Sheep - Little Sheep stood contentedly munching on the tender green grass of the valley floor as the sun sank in the western sky.

Beneath a Gypsy Moon -  A full moon hung high over the night corridor.  The screech of a barn owl could be heard in the distance and it eerily mingled with the metal chimes of the dancing gypsy.   She had arrived alone this evening beneath a full moon that bore a misted halo and the promise of rain.  And there she danced before the small crowd of used car salesmen.  continue
