The Bird People  by WendyyWolfe
19 parts Complete Mature
In 1600s Virginia, a small colonial village sprang up unceremoniously on the sacred burial grounds of the Native American people it was taken from, the Nottoway. Now, an ancient evil has been awakened in the form of Elementals known as The Bird People and it is suspected that the Nottoway Tribe has cursed the ground in revenge for being encroached upon by colonial settlers. After failed crops, still births, deaths, burnt homes and facing starvation, superstitions run rampant and the townspeople do the only thing they can think of in the late 1600s to appease these angry and destructive spirits. Give them an offering. It is quietly decided by the elders of the community, in an effort to keep these spirits of the bird people at bay, that every woman should give up her first born infant daughter to them. One such young mother cannot bear this resolution much less imagine giving up her only child. In order to keep her only child, a daughter, she makes a baby out of straw and gives that instead, bringing chaos to their puritan village. A cursed girl. The man who loves her. A questionable death. Native American Lore. Elemental Guardians. A village built on sacred burial grounds.

The Exorcism of Aaron Galanis

6 parts Ongoing Mature

The Galanis family is stricken with grief when the youngest son 'Aaron Galanis' finds a strange board in his recently deceased grandmothers belongings. Grandma Galanis was strange the last year before her passing. She would be found talking to the walls, walking around the yard at night, and claiming that a fat man was coming to feed her to his hungry wife. The man's name was Baba Hoogie. Thinking their grandma was mentally unwell and suffering from dementia they ignore her, but she told her grandchildren never to dabble with spiritual tools, and that when she dies they were to burn the Ouija Board, but above all else she was never too open the box with the board in it, for it was a gateway to the other side. When the grandmother passed away, Aaron heard that he could talk to his grandmother online through a Ouija Board, but soon he regrets his actions. At first it seemed like his grandmother until he saw the spirits true form. It was the Baba Hoogie!
