The Girl Who Dances With The Snakes by okelzeynep

In 1997, two young journalists, Rachel and Max, fresh out of university, are searching for a compelling story to submit to a documentary film competition. Their search takes a turn when they stumble upon an old newspaper article from 1952 about a mysterious and unexplained death- one that has long been forgotten. Decades ago, Norman's Circus of Wonders was on its way to becoming Los Angeles' greatest circus, but everything came to a tragic end when its star performer died under strange circumstances. The circus burned to the ground, and its name faded into history. Now, forty-five years later, Rachel and Max are determined to uncover the truth behind the long-buried mystery. • As the story shifts between two different time periods, a hidden truth slowly comes to light- a truth that reveals not just a mystery but a bloodstained stage disguised as entertainment. The spotlights may shine brightly, but can the truth survive the darkness lurking behind the curtain? Rachel and Max, caught between youth and experience, stand at a crossroads. Too young to fully understand what they want, yet too old to remain uncertain, they find themselves stepping into the past- into the story of a girl who once danced with snakes. If you're ready, the show is about to begin. . . . . © 2025 | ZeynepOkel

Bobo by Can_you_not587

They thought it was just a night of fun. They were wrong. When a group of friends visits a lively carnival in a remote town, they expect a night of thrills and laughter. But as they step into the Room of Mirrors, things take a dark turn. In one of the mirrors, they catch a glimpse of something horrifying-a sinister clown with black, soulless eyes, razor-sharp teeth dripping with blood, and wild, dark blue hair that seems to move on its own. Before they can react, the lights flicker and then plunge them into darkness. When the lights come back on, the friends find themselves alone. The once-bustling carnival is now eerily silent and deserted. As they try to find their way out, they realize that the carnival is not just abandoned-it's a trap. The twisted clown is more than just a reflection; he's real, and he's hunting them. The mirrors were just the beginning of his deadly game, and now, there's no escape. Will they make it out alive, or will they become the latest victims of the clown's twisted domain? Welcome to the carnival. Once you enter, you can never leave.
