When Sarah, a timid girl fresh out of high school, takes a seasonal job at a Halloween store, she notices her fellow employees behave strangely. They all seem to have their own little quirks, and many of them appear amused by her naivete. This is her first job, so she doesn't want to rock the boat too much, but she can't help feeling like an outsider in a workplace where everyone else acts like they're on the same wavelength. She soon discovers that this gap between them is because she's the only human in a staff full of monsters!
*While this story is inspired by the author's experience working a seasonal Halloween store job, any similarities between the characters and real people are coincidental. Every bit of this story is fiction and just a fun narrative for the spooky season!

She's Behind The Mask
The wind blows past my head, I close my eyes and take a deep breath of the cool air. Looking down I can see the city and all the lights that let me know I'm not alone in the world. I could get used to this I think to myself and I laugh. I laugh because I have powers. I laugh because of the clouds. I laugh because I have school tomorrow and I'm up at 1am. I laugh because I feel free. Kaylee is your typical teenager, does alright at school, loves basketball and has a small group of friends. But what happens when one morning she wakes up and is no longer 'typical'. Exploring her new-found abilities is all that's on her mind. When the city then gets a new hero, the kind that goes around saving people using unimaginable powers, she becomes the front page of every newspaper. But they would never expect that She's Behind The Mask...Concluida
Slate Gray
For the Slates, demon slaying is the family business. And eighteen-year-old Perrin has fully embraced her chosen profession. But when her sister, fifteen-year-old Ace, declares she's ready to join the cause, Perrin has her reservations. First of all, the case she's picked involves not one, but three demonic foes. A tricky proposition for any new slayer. Second, something eerily familiar lurks at the heart of the infested town. A red-eyed presence that may or may not be the demon who murdered their brother a decade ago. Third, Ace refuses to listen. To reason, to orders, to sense. And in this line of work, one false move can get you killed. Along with their exasperated father and an overeager grocery store clerk, Perrin and Ace set out to raise a little hell and bag a trio of baddies. But demons aren't the only ones to fear. And as enemies close in on all sides, the Slates will need to trust each other and their training to stay one step ahead of the coming storm.
