Another gourd… I just don’t understand kids these days. I did my best Uncle Rico impression and chunked it into the woods to rot alongside its brethren. That makes 27 perfectly good gourds that have gone to waste this month. Not that I’m exactly sure what gourds are for anyways. During my walk to work I noticed that ...

Do you believe in Ghosts? Do you believe in the afterlife? Do you believe in Heaven? If you do believe in Heaven, do you believe it is a paradise? I asked myself these questions once, the last one being the most recent I came up with. Because I do believe in ghosts, the afterlife, and the existence. However, I no ...

“Help wanted. Easy work. Big Pay”. This roughly made and atrociously designed advertisement almost made me burst out in laughter upon reading it again. Any five-year-old who can open google docs and print a piece of paper could have replicated it. The only other thing on the entire sheet was a phone number. Even worse...

I saw the violin case listed for sale online. I browsed the website for fifteen minutes before I found it. The requirements for buying it should have been a red flag. My curiosity got the better of me. I decided to go along with the necessary steps to complete the transaction. I am an avid collector of ‘murderabilia...

This happened some time ago. I have been struggling with it since then. I admit I don't think about it anymore with the horror I used to, but still scares me and I feel sharing will help. This is my horror story. 2018, a cold, dark, silent and lonely night. That day was just another simple one of a 16 year old kid. I...

My alarm woke me up in the morning. I was still a student at the time, so I had to wake up early. My mother was in the kitchen making some coffee. She worked until midnight, so usually, she arrived home when I was already asleep, so her question surprised me. “Did you fall asleep quickly after I came home?” she asked...
