Echoes Of The Abyss.
Constance and Lorelei, inseparable friends seeking solace, ventured into the Appalachian mountains. The forest, thick with towering trees and hidden trails, soon ensnared them in its labyrinthine grasp. As daylight waned, their laughter turned to unease. Each path they chose seemed to lead deeper into unfamiliar terrain, shadows lengthening ominously. With no sign of civilization, panic set in. The rustling leaves whispered secrets of ancient darkness, and the distant echoes of wildlife became haunting cries in the twilight. Lost and desperate, Constance and Lorelei clung to dwindling hope, their friendship tested by the encroaching night and unseen perils.Concluida

In a quiet town wrapped in fog and secrets, something ancient stirs beneath the surface. When new blood enters a neighborhood already weighed down by silence, curiosity can become dangerous. Some doors are locked for a reason... and some truths are meant to stay buried. But for April, once she knocks-there's no turning back. ⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧ April had always been curious about the new boy named Gregory, who had moved into her neighborhood. He was quiet, always alone, with a stare that seemed too heavy for someone his age. Rumors began to spread-whispers of screams in the night and strange symbols drawn in red near the woods. Due to him not showing up to school regularly and having been acting quite strange, April's curiosity turned into obsession. Her dreams became disturbed, filled with flickering shadows and haunting whispers that spoke his name. Unexplained disappearances and brutal attacks from a mysterious creature started happening. Victims were found torn apart-no trace of the attacker, only claw marks and eerie silence. And April happened to be stalked by something lurking through the shadows. She soon discovers and is surprised to see who it is. A face she trusted. Having a rare condition... one hidden for generations. To consume blood flesh. ⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧ ⚠ Content Warning: strong language, blood/gore, graphic violence, alcohol use, attempt of suicide, SA, and frightening scenes ⚠ · ┈┈┈┈┈┈ · ꕥ · ┈┈┈┈┈┈ · This story has a playlist **Listen on Spotify**Concluida
