Australiangothic Stories

Just a thousand word story I wrote for an assignment, 1000-1500 words of "Australian Gothic." I'd appreciate some constructive criticism, also keep in mind that this was written in an hour - from scratch - the night it was due... whoops 😬

993 people have disappeared inside Australia's own Bermuda Triangle. Why? Felix Montgomery has given himself 2 weeks at Camp Joy to figure it out. Which is, coincidentally, built right on top of it. Camp Joy is built on top of a graveyard, and seventeen-year-old Felix has concluded that there is no better way to spend his summer. 12 hours from Perth lies this tiny town of Little Wrenwood, and people are quiet here. They do not speak of the gone. Felix hunts for them. And since this mission is personal, there is absolutely nothing he won't gamble. Unluckily for him, summer camp means cabins, and he is stuck, from sunrise to sunset, every day, with five other kids his own age. Three girls. Three boys. The Geckos. His childhood best friend A homeschooled bookworm A space cadet A walking anxiety diagnosis And a physics prodigy His own personal hellscape.
