Evan is an everyday guy, lacking ambition and direction. But when he wakes up captive in a pitch-black pit, he will discover the possibility of a new purpose, the meaning of sacrifice, and exactly what it takes to make the world go around. Weaving history, mythology, and inspiration from authors like Neil Gaiman and Nick Cutter, The Gravity Myth pulls back the curtain on a fourth-wall breaking god of many names, the absurdity of choice... and what is that horrible sucking sound at the center of the Earth?

It's Somewhere Beneath Us by Ink_Wielder
17 parts Complete Mature
The house is safe. The hills outside are not. The basement is out of the question. Joel has been trapped in the house for what has felt like an eternity; all hope of escaping lost after the first few years. Without the company of the eight strangers who arrived with him, he would have gone mad long ago. But while living in the decrepit building is taxing, nothing could be worse than the thing downstairs. Everyone is content to just live in the six rooms that they know are safe until Joel learns that there may be something below. Something other than the creature that torments them. The house goes deeper, further down into the darkness. And while travelling through the unknown halls may be dangerous, and the thing downstairs is always following close behind, Joel is determined to find a way out of the nightmare he's found himself in; for his own sake, but more importantly, the sake of the people he loves.

The Unmarked Hour - (Completed) by Iamradhahere
20 parts Complete
A village trapped in time. A stranger caught in its curse. A clock that refuses to strike twelve. When journalist Adrian Veil arrives in Black Hollow, he expects nothing more than another ghost story for his column. But the villagers refuse to speak of the hour between 11:59 PM and midnight-an hour that does not exist. Until Adrian experiences it himself. The streets shift, shadows move, and whispers creep through the night. Every time the clock ticks forward, reality resets-trapping him deeper in a loop that no one remembers. No one except them. As Adrian unravels the horrifying truth, he learns that some secrets are meant to stay buried. Because in The Unmarked Hour... Not everyone who enters gets to leave.

65 parts Ongoing Mature
They said the Hunt was sacred. That if I was chosen, it meant fate. But fate didn't feel like a mouth on my skin or claws at my back. It felt like blood. Mine. For years, I stayed hidden. Quiet. Unclaimed. I stole seeds from the state fields, grew food in secret, fed my family from soil and silence. I did everything right - stayed beneath their radar, beneath their noses. I didn't make waves. I didn't ask for more. But monsters never forget a scent. And when the Hunt came, I was scented. Tracked. Taken. I stabbed him. I buried the blade in his shoulder and watched him bleed. It didn't matter. Because he still bit me. And the world saw. Now my face is on every screen. The girl who didn't run. The girl who fought back. Some call me a rebel. Some call me a mate. But they all forget one thing. I wasn't made to be claimed. I was made to survive. And if they want to collar me, cage me, crown me - they'll have to reckon with everything I've kept buried beneath the roots. Because I am not the flower. I'm the fire beneath it.

TRAPPED IN HIS EYES by PraiseAjibola3
47 parts Complete Mature
Nobody ever thinks their life will shatter in an instant-until it does. Not at first. You wake up, you go through the motions, and you trust the people around you. You laugh, you cry, you love. You never stop to wonder if the hands you hold today will be the same ones that destroy you tomorrow. I never did. I never questioned the warmth in his smile, the strength in his presence, the way he stood by my side like a shadow I could always rely on. I thought I had finally found someone who understood me, someone who didn't see me as an outsider. Someone I called a brother. But trust is a dangerous thing. It blinds you. It makes you miss the signs staring right at you. Because the moment I saw the truth- I realized I had been holding the devil's hand all along. #5 Survivor #36 Obsession
The Other Me "Dark Syndrome" by DloaVirus
11 parts Complete
Based on true events, this collection of terrifying tales will send shivers down your spine. In the ancient world, when darkness consumed the night, tales of mysterious creatures and beings abounded. Legends spoke of demons, witches, wolves, shapeshifters, and vampires that roamed freely among humans. Whispers of a powerful energy being circulated amongst these supernatural creatures - one that could exist outside of a physical body and transfer into others at will. This elusive being was said to feed on the life force of living beings, taking on their form as it drained them dry. Some even believed that it would continue to do so until it found a suitable vessel for permanent possession. In modern times, doctors have called this condition the TOM syndrome - an acronym for "the other me". This neurological disorder is thought to cause hallucinations and delusions due to extreme exhaustion and dehydration. As you read through these accounts from patients who have experienced these visions, remember that their names and locations have been changed to protect their identities.

Whispers in the Walls by ShingCedj
52 parts Complete
They told me the house was empty. That the boy I was supposed to care for wasn't real. Just a doll. Just a job. But then I heard things. Felt things. The whispers in the walls, the way the air shifted like someone was always watching me. I should be scared. I should leave. But there's something about him-something that keeps pulling me back. Maybe it's the loneliness in his voice. Or the way he lingers in the shadows, waiting for me to see him. All I know is... I don't think I want to run anymore.
