Excellent, deserves more reads, it's a shame that little things like this are overlooked in favour of some of the rubbish I've read with lots of views. Good job!

WOW! That was intense. Creepy, chilling! No wonder I still get the shivers around mannequins! Nice work - +1 vote.

Okay, I love this. I read a LOT of horror stories and Creepypasta and this is one of my favorites so far by a landslide. Keep up the good writing!!!

I was gonna read this last night but I got too scared so I just read it now xD This story is incredible! I'd love to see it adapted into a horror movie or something. God if I had a nightmare like that I wouldn't be able to sleep for AGES :3 You're very good at writing as well which made this story seem more real to me.

Little Nightmares: Dreamers Of The Maw by LadyEckland
9 parts Complete Mature
Dive into the shadowy depths of the Maw, a chilling collection of eight stories that peel back the curtains on the darkest corners of this nightmarish world. Each tale invites you to experience the Maw through the eyes of those who dared to dream-and found themselves ensnared. 1. **The Dreamers' Descent** - Four researchers challenge the boundaries of reality, only to find themselves trapped in the twisted labyrinths of the Maw, where their experiment turns into a fight for survival. 2. **Echoes of Hunger** - A gaunt chef's obsession with perfection leads to horrifying culinary experiments. Discover what lies behind his mask and the grotesque meals he prepares. 3. **The Janitor's Watch** - Explore the life of the Maw's blind janitor, who uses the echoes of the corridors to capture any who stray too far from safety. His tale is one of loneliness and the desperate need for connection. 4. **Little Lost Lights** - Follow the flickering journey of a lost spirit, a remnant of a failed escape, seeking salvation among the living children still hoping to find their way out. 5. **The Librarian's Silence** - In the Maw's forsaken library, a once-avid scholar seeks forbidden knowledge that could either free her or bind her to the Maw forever. 6. **The Engine's Heart** - Deep within the bowels of the Maw, the engine room harbors a dark secret. A young mechanic uncovers the truth about what powers the Maw-and the cost of its hunger. 7. **The Nursery of Shadows** - A former caretaker recounts her eerie experiences with the ghostly children who play eternal games within the walls of the Maw's nursery. 8. **The Ferryman's Voyage** - A mysterious figure who ferries the lost souls across the shadowy waters beneath the Maw reveals his ancient origins and the true nature of his curse. Each story intertwines with the others, spinning a web of terror, mystery, and the slim possibility of redemption. Will you brave the dark?

An accident during a competition shattered her life in the horse world. Her life is now in a wheelchair. Her only friend on main campus was a shattered doll that she fixed and took care of. She didn't know that the porcelain doll will change her life. For the better or the worst she doesn't know. Yet. I don't see a lot of these so decided to give it a try. I needed another project to work on while I do "Blank Face". I might do one more Creepypasta. *Contains strong language* Y/N- your name L/N- last name E/C- eye color H/C-hair color F/C- favorite color Hrs/C-horse color F/R- favorite restraunt ___- time skip pov- point of view
