The NEPS Files are some creepy little short gory stories I made in my free time. I took inspiration from the SCP Foundation and decided: Why not made something similar?

"Do you know much about her? Lilith?" "She's weird. Really weird. I don't think she has many friends, why?" "No reason, she's just... Intriguing. I guess."

But some sweet things become sour, and Lilith Reed is not what she seems." Warning: This book contains strong language and violence. Read at your own risk.

A short story for those who'll read. Go easy on mistakes, this is the first thing I've published in a hot minute. Just a bored person after a long year looking to make some horror.

A thought-provoking snapshot of my brain. Proceed with caution. Images are not as they appear. What I learned may be different from what you'll learn, but I hope you come to the same conclusion as me: just be.
