This story is about Malachi. He's a cryptid hunter. Nothing fancy, just keeping tabs on folklore. But it's really all he has. Malachi is either laying in bed or wrestling a Bigfoot to the ground. Yes, it is tiring. All he really wants is to settle down and stay in one place for more than a few months.
This story is also about Augustine. He's... a lot of things. A terminal people pleaser, a store clerk, avid lover of RnB music, just to name a few. Fellow townspeople tend to dump their errands and chores on Augustine, but that's okay. It's not like he was doing anything else. Literally trapped in his hometown.
When Malachi is stationed in Point Pleasant to investigate some strange sightings, the two meet and break each other's respective worldviews.

Flip (OFFICIAL WATTPAD UPLOAD)
When his cryptid-obsessed friends ask him to drive out to Buttfuck Nowhere, Oregon for the summer in hopes of him getting some photos for their 'zine, Velvet doesn't expect much to come of it. He expects maybe a few birds to scare the shit out of him while he's camping at most, or maybe even a Sasquatch sighting that he'll later realize was a squirrel (thanks, Punz's weed brownies). He doesn't, however, anticipate befriending a ferocious creature who isn't human anymore (and possibly never was), or to discover that all local legends have a grain of truth to them He certainly doesn't expect to fall in love, either.Complete

On the outside Nore Mcguire was your average twenty-six year old High School Writing teacher. She had a lot of friends and didn't mind sharing a home with her eighty-year old Grandmother and her nine cats. But there was still something off. She sort of blames it on the stories her grandmother told her growing up about the night-walkers. Sometimes she thought she saw them, hoovering over people just before their death. She figured it was just her imagination and moved on, but that was until the new English teacher came to town. Jaime Donovan rode into town like a wild storm on a summer night. The ladies loved him. Nore found him attractive, sure, but he always found a way to get under her skin, and there was just something off about him. On the night of the Founders Day masquerade ball, Nore finds herself semi-plastered and dancing with one masked man the entire night. They danced and kissed the night away. She waited for her Cinderella moment to take place, but it never did, and that's because half the town was left for dead. And the next morning when the sun rose, things looked a little different. And now not only does she want to figure out who the masked man was, but she has to figure out why she was the only one to see creatures killing people in the daylight, when no one else could, and how to get rid of them for good. ----- Written for ONC 2022 - #66 & #23Complete

The townspeople warn that the forest is haunted, urging everyone to stay far from its shadowy borders. Lily, a daring 19-year-old who has never believed in old tales, sneaks into the woods one night, driven by her unshakable curiosity. There, she meets Kael, a mysterious and brooding figure whose life has been marred by a curse that forced him into isolation. Kael, now 23, lives alone in a secluded cabin, hiding behind a mask that conceals the skeletal half of his face. To his surprise, Lily isn't frightened by his appearance-she sees past the curse to the man he truly is. As the two grow closer, their bond begins to challenge the very beliefs that have kept Kael isolated for years. But the curse that haunts Kael runs deeper than anyone in the town knows. As Lily delves into the mystery of what really happened to Kael, she discovers that the curse isn't just about his appearance-it's tied to a dark secret that could destroy them both. In The Phantom of the Woods, Lily and Kael must face the unknown together, unearthing the truth behind the curse and testing whether love can break through the barriers of fear and isolation.
