After decades at sea and a lifetime of loneliness, a weary sailor returns to land, broken by back pain and burdened by years of isolation. With no family left but a cantankerous uncle and a memory of a decaying childhood home, he chooses solitude over comfort, moving into an abandoned farmhouse long believed to be unfit for living.

But the house is not as empty as it seems...

A haunting short story of love, madness, and the price of seeing what you want to see.

EXCERPT:

I hesitated, but only for a second. For her, I'd do anything.

I swallowed hard and took the knife. Scraped my finger across the blade, sharp, cold, and let the blood drip into the bowl. The fire hissed when it hit, and the smoke twisted up faster, like it had been waitin'.

Ang Tranvia de Kabayong Maligno ni Gorgorya by MorukLapramiz

What's with a Tranvia de Kabayong Maligno? An electric train car converted into a supernatural, horse-drawn carriage by three of the most unlikely Filipino hero adventurers you will never hear of anywhere. Traveling in the countryside in the Philippines in the 1970s was a dangerous affair. Buses would get lost into strange cities like Biringan then overnight be stuck at the top of some forest mountain in the middle of nowhere. The underdeveloped countryside roads were dark and unlit, and the least troubles you could face were bandits or drunk government soldiers. There was actually a legion of darkness that plagued North, South and the far south, Demon Hunters in a rickety rat-carriage pulled by Nightmare horses and armed to the teeth with supernatural deterrents that worked to rid the Philippines of the evil, supernatural monsters that preyed the dark roads. Meet Gorgorya Mariposa, Tomoko "Bading" Garci and Wong Fook Hing or Bakal Tinapay, the best retro-heroes in this supernatural action adventure short story series.

But I'm not a VAMPIRE (GxG) °Published under PopFiction° by FallinginReverze

"Seriously? You really thought I would accept you? I'm way too out of your league, retreat from talking to me and don't come near me, you're a vampire" She returned to being the killer eyed girl that I first met in an instant. Said by the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my entire life, a goddess that I don't know why chose to stay in this messy earth. And she rejected me, well why would a perfect girl like her accept me right? but at least I tried than do nothing at all and regret it forever. "Bu...but I'm not a vampire!" I exclaimed in frustration. Seriously? That's the reason why she rejected me? I asked myself. That's the most ridiculous thing that I ever heard as an excuse for rejecting someone. "Well, you do look like one and I hate vamps" she argued before rolling her beautiful eyes at me. I want to argue but she didn't give me the chance by walking away, leaving me astounded.

Haunteds by rexdejesus02

BOUGHT BY WATTPAD WEBTOON STUDIOS FOR PUBLISHING/MOVIE DEALS!!! Winner of the Wattys 2020 Award in Horror/English "This book really hooks you with its intriguing premise. A super fun horror story rooted in Filipino Folklore, with a science thriller twist - think Jurassic Park meets It Follows." -----What the Wattys2020 Team said about Haunteds, Wattys2020 Winner in Horror category Plot: In 1974, the mysterious cult's mass kidnapping and ritualistic killing led to the summoning of the Shade-a paranormal entity of living shadow. Ever since then, starting in October in Bastillio-a city in the Philippines steeped in history and superstition-the Shade would be seen haunting twelve teenagers at night throughout the month, often resulting in their deaths. But the discovery of U.V. lights as a deterrent from the Shade led the government to establish a system to contain the Shade's threat. Fast forward to 2025, twenty years after the system had successfully prevented any more deaths, the media and global firestorm surrounding the phenomenon died down. So when sixteen-year-old Vergil Torres was identified as one of the twelve and was immediately brought to Biringan-the government shelter where haunteds like him would stay for the month-he was more excited than scared for his life. But the gruesome and inexplicable death of one of them during their stay in the supposedly safe house renews the horror of the Shade. Reluctant at first, Vergil, together with his friends and Major Coleman, decided to get to the bottom of the mystery, if they are to survive through the month.

LIRA: Book I by MaxineLaurel

If we are still in the 90's and someone will approach me and say "You're a descendant of a Goddess," I'll most likely answer "You need some serious help." But we are now living in the early 22nd century, where the country has endured and survived the Great World War and Vampires ruled the world like kings -literally. Anything is possible. My one shot to escape the social stigma branded to someone like me who is born from a lower caste is just one school away. I am one of those lucky few chosen to attend the Imperial Academy. It may be a vampire infested school, but a school is still a school. Everything is okay until my very own personal bully shows up. And to top it all an arrogant vampire prince thinks I'm his! And I get to see them every day. Great. My name is Lira, and this is my story. Published under Cloak Pop Fiction

I wished for a Boyfriend not a Girlfriend (GxG, Lesbian) °editing° by FallinginReverze

I was awakened by a buzz, but I don't want to get up, instead I lay still on my bed and about to dream again when I heard a THUD, I flinched at the sound. It's Saturday so I'm not expecting anyone at this early in the morning. I'm not a morning person, I am now annoyed to whoever it is. "Coming!" I yelled and started walking which took me sometime because I literally took my time, don't blame me I'm still sleepy, I opened the door to see a very beautiful woman, she has long wavy hair, thick eyelashes and pink pout lips and lastly... a body to die for. I frowned when I realized a high-school student? I can say because she's wearing a uniform. What is a beautiful high-school girl doing here knocking at my door? I asked mentally. I was about to ask her when she suddenly slipped inside my condo and sit on the couch cozily, I crossed my arms and face her still frowning. "Miss what are you doing here? What do you need?" I asked her curiously. She looked at me and smiled, a smile that can make men drool, but I'm not because I'm still annoyed. "I am your girlfriend" she said sweetly, my eyes widened in shock, I know I'm drunk last night but I don't remember having a girlfriend. I was about to say something when she stood up and face me leaning so much closer that were inches apart. "You wished for me, last night on the internet" oh crap! Now I remember! I was browsing the net when a certain ad captures my attention. "But I wished for a BOYFRIEND! Not a Girlfriend!!?" How do you handle a situation where there's NO REFUND and NO EXCHANGE?

Anito Anarchy by enyeenjee

According to folklore, obscure forces secretly live among us, shaping the natural world and influencing human affairs. Some call them spirits, others refer to them as guardians, and some even worship them as gods. But to the old and wise, those who understand what lies beyond this world, they are simply called "Anito." If you were to tell this tale to Makisig "Maki" Kagiwa, a 15-year-old high school student, he would dismiss it as nothing more than a silly superstition. Living in a bustling modern city, Maki views old beliefs as outdated stories with no place in reality. But his skepticism will be put to the test when he encounters the paranormal firsthand. What will he do when he realizes that the creatures and monsters from long-forgotten legends truly exist in the modern world? Will he become a believer before it's too late? Or will his doubts cost him dearly when he and his older brother find themselves hunted by otherworldly beings---creatures whose motives remain a deadly mystery? *** Out of nowhere, an ominous creature in a tailored suit lunged at me, claws swiping through the air. I stumbled backward to avoid the attack and lost my balance. The creature shrieked and dove toward me, but I managed to block its claws with my baseball bat. Face-to-face with this monstrosity, panic and exhaustion took hold. Its grotesque features triggered a primal terror I had never experienced before. I lay flat on the ground, clutching the bat like a lifeline. The other creatures seized the opportunity, racing toward me with murderous intent etched on their twisted faces. My blood ran cold as I saw them close in, clawing and slashing at me from all angles. A scream tore from my throat as something sharp punctured my stomach. My life flashed before my eyes, just as people always said it would in the face of death. I couldn't believe this was how my life would end---devoured by creatures wrapped in inscrutable mystery. *** Note: This story is written in English.
