Main Genre: Dark Fantasy (Dreampunk, Magical Girl, Occult Detective, Vampire). Sub Genres: Action, Thriller, LGBT. Promises are meant to be kept, but a promise to save a beloved sister leads a group of high school magical girls into a dream of many literary landscapes. Out of this dream of Carroll's wonderlands and Baum's fairylands and Poe's nightmares comes a monster that threatens to invade the waking world.

If you love quirky magical girls, bloodthirsty femme fatales, fight scenes, love scenes, twisty plot lines, fantastic settings, the possibility of dreams, and the uncertainty of nightmares, this story is for you. Note: As of today (Tuesday, April 16, 2024), I have removed almost all of the parts of Days of Blood and Roses: A Magical Girl Thriller from Wattpad. I did this, because Wattpad changed its contents guidelines from 16-year-olds-and-up to 18-year-olds-and-up doing sexy stuff. As such, I leave the first part, "Night: Colbie and the Phantom Stab (Dreams)," as a oneshot on this site. Warnings: sexuality, violence, emotional trauma, bodily harm (*), self-harm (**). Status: On-going. This a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, locales, and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner.
