Horrorsf Stories

Discover the depth of the dark side of Sci-Fi in this brand new collection of short stories by some of Wattpad's best science fiction writers.

Each of the stories featured herein is set within a Universe of the writer's creation, while all being a part of a larger, shared Multiverse. At the Ooorah Mothership, we call this the M'Verse. Writers have free rein to tell the story they want to tell, providing it's sci-fi in nature and no more than 5000 words in length... then it's all good! There are, however, five "rules" to which all created Universes within the shared Multiverse must adhere. Think of them as non-mandatory prompts that weave an invisible, unbreakable web throughout this anthology. But that shouldn't prove too difficult for the writers partaking... It's time to RETURN TO THE M'VERSE.

Have you ever wanted to live ANOTHER LIFE...? A VR addict receives an anonymous letter hooking her on the idea of true love. A starship commander, accused of killing his wife, takes a drug to absolve himself of his sins. An ex-con is forced to kill for sport to keep his captive daughter alive. An astronaut is infected by an alien pathogen that robs her of her identity. An alien race repels human colonization using their unique affinity for mushroom spores. A desert wanderer finds a sentient supercomputer with a plan to restart civilization. And a young man emerges from forty years of cryostasis, cured of a terminal disease, only to find his world has moved on just enough to leave him behind. MIKE MARSBERGEN has written over a hundred stories, nine of which are featured here in ANOTHER LIFE, his first collection of science-fiction stories. Sometimes tragic and romantic, other times violent and disturbing, each of these nine speculative stories will take readers on a mindbending journey to places they won't expect.
