Puritan Stories

Delilah Eve and her mother are outcasts in their small village because of folklore and rumours surrounding Delilah's father. Her mother is mentally unstable since the 'incident' and Delilah is ostracised from the rest of the village, leaving her alone. Tormented by night terrors, one night she hears it - the music. Eager to find a way out of her lonely lifestyle, she goes into the field, towards the fire where she finds more than she bargained for. *A short story written for one of my university assignments - based on sleep paralysis*

She had done nothing wrong, nothing more than be favored by her father, but her brother's insanity and the paranoia of her town has her in a cell anticipating a morning trial in which she'd be judged a witch. Take in this gripping short story about a woman too easily accused and stripped of power, and about the friends on which she must rely to obtain true freedom.

Massachusetts Bay Colony is a hard place to grow up, especially if you're living in Salem Village in 1692. The hard Puritan values were already a challenge to live up to before accusations of witchcraft had spread across the village. Liliana was a 15 year old Puritan girl who was far from perfect and just wanted to live a life where she was free or her responsibilities. She tried to make her life better, but what did it cost her in the end?

A fictional diary of Martha Corey, told in her own voice as she looks back on her life-from shame and widowhood, to becoming a "gospel woman," to doubting the Salem witch trials and facing arrest, imprisonment, and execution for refusing to let fear rule her community.

Edited by Arthur Bennett (1915-1994), 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘝𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘝𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 is a collection of prayers from Puritans in whose hearts Christ dwelled. May the grace of God be with you all. Please note: none of the words are mine, save this story description.

Tacita should not exist. She is an oxymoron, a combination of two opposites. Her existence is seemingly contradictory - and she's the only one who's even aware of it. Oh, and she's a witch living in a Puritan society, hiding her identity from her family and doing her best to conform to social norms. But is her best enough in an unfamiliar land amongst nameless strangers? It becomes harder to hide when everyone is constantly watching. Tacita is playing with fire both physically, and metaphorically.

This is the story of the Cullen's. Starting from Carlisle until Bella. How it all started, how they all changed into vampires. (With Bella, I will not have her pregnant until I feel like its time) I am not real good at descriptions so I will leave you at this......READ ON!

Goodman Brown is married to his lovely Faith, but is beginning to question the basis on which he views the world, causing strain on his marriage. Based off Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story "Young Goodman Brown"

The story of Haiden Swekrov, a puritan. Who lived in a suburban remote village on Europe. A young boy who is curious about the aspects of life and God. An orphan of a catholic family. A peculiar boy, always bullied by his status of his life.

I'm having a poetry assignment and I thought I'd share some here. Tell me what you think.

To say I was wanted would be a lie. I suppose that would not be particularly astonishing, given the circumstances of my birth. In 1606, who would want a daughter born on Friday the Thirteenth, on the night of a new moon? At times I tell myself this is no fault of mine - how would I be to blame for the superstitious of many, for being born into such a society as I was? However, I cannot help feeling guilty whenever I think about myself - myself, and all the others left behind by chance.

This is just a story I had to write for English class. We were asked to write a gothic story after watching The Raven. And this is what I came up with. But this is a very graphically violent story and is quite disturbing. It has to do with religion so please don't feel like I'm persecuting Christians as insane or extremists. This is just a story. It has no reflection of any personal beliefs I have. This is also very twisted and sadistic. That's just how I came up with the writing. Don't worry. I'm no Michael Myers or Hannibal Lecter. Thank you for reading. Enjoy!

In the presence of Christ, we are confronted with a truth too vast to fully comprehend: He is both fully God and fully man. This meditation seeks to explore that mystery, to gaze upon Christ's divine nature and wrestle with the depths of His sacrifice. Through raw reflections and humble adoration, the author invites the reader to come closer to the Savior-this God who became flesh, who humbled Himself to walk among us, and who died for us. As you turn these pages, you will encounter a God who is infinitely more than we can understand, a God whose love defies comprehension. Each chapter serves as an invitation to reflect on the truth of Christ's identity-His divinity, His sacrifice, and His unimaginable love for mankind. This book is not just a theological exploration, but a prayer, a longing for Christ to be seen more clearly, to be known more deeply, and to be worshiped as He deserves. If you seek to understand Christ in a deeper way, if you long to be moved by His divine love and sacrifice, this meditation will speak to your heart and stir you to worship Him with renewed awe and reverence.

In the deep and ancient forest, many miles outside the highly religious Settlement, lives Eden, a girl who can see and communicate with Wandering Souls- troubled spirits that haunt the area. She has lived alone for five years after Cassia, her caretaker, died. But in an interruption to her grief-filled, yet peaceful, life, she is forced into helping the Settlement solve their issue with the Wanderers- they are viciously haunting the town. Hugo, a boy whose past is deeply intertwined with Eden's, seems to be the only one she can trust. Together, they search for the cause of the haunting. But as she learns more about the Settlement and her own past with it, she starts to question the town's beliefs and her new family's safety in it.
