Killer Couple by FictionMultiverse

At eighteen, Mateo and Adalyn were stolen from their lives - locked away, broken, and remade in someone else's hell. Three years later, freedom came in the form of blood when Mateo killed the man who took them. But survival didn't save them. It changed them. Now, they run a quiet little Airbnb off a back road that never makes it onto maps. Guests come for peace and privacy - and never leave. For Adalyn, it's the thrill. For Mateo, it's the control. Together, they've turned their trauma into pleasure... and their business into a graveyard. Because when you check in with them, you don't check out.

Spectral Water by Sova-Veil

Sixteen-year-old Kaitlyn expected her summer to be simple - sun, freedom, and her best friend Hannah by her side. Not whispers in the dark. Not shadows that laugh. Not... them. After a chilling encounter in the woods, Kaitlyn and her friends begin to sense something watching them - a presence that wears human shapes but moves like a broken puppet, giggling in voices that aren't alive. The adults don't believe them. The town pretends nothing's wrong. But the thing lurking beneath the spectral waters has already chosen its prey. As dreams rot into reality and familiar faces twist into monsters, Kaitlyn must face buried grief, unspoken fears, and a force older than death itself. One that doesn't just want to haunt them- It wants to become them. A haunting tale of friendship, folklore, and dread - Spectral Water will drag you under and make you hope it never lets go.

She is Fatal to Death (Standalone Story) by writeraliciagonzalez

She's dead by the third chapter. Okay, it's a bit more complicated than that. Okay, it's A LOT more complicated than that. Renata wants nothing more than to pay her bills through her mildly boring office job and figure out whether she is still in love with her best friend. The latter half of that desire is just a sneak peak into her messy life-and it's only getting messier. Considering the paranormal world she is about to dive head first into, she will come to realize that figuring out her heart may just be the easiest part of this journey. Well, the endless supply of supernatural hotness in this story may beg to differ-but that's besides the point. Either way, it's gonna be a killer time ;) EXCERPT Chicken tacos it is. Right as Renata grabbed the ingredients, she turned to put them next to the stove, where a clean, plastic cutting board awaited. But as she moved, she was confronted by a stranger, an intruder, standing mere inches from her. Before she could scream, he was on her, slamming her against the fridge. Her back flashed with sharp pain. Her eyes pricked with fear as she drank in his uncovered face. Deeply tanned skin. Ruby red eyes-ruby red eyes? Thick, slashing eyebrows. Flat, broad nose. Buzzcut. Handsome. That was as far as she would go in complimenting him considering this guy held a knife to her throat. When he spoke, his voice came out like thunder. It held a thousand threats and a thousand secrets. It held promise of pain if provoked. "If you scream," he warned, mouth pulled in a slight snarl, "this ends quickly." She didn't dare nod against the blade. He noticed and amusement lit up for just a second in those devilish eyes. Oh, whoever the fuck this was, she already hated him. Considering her predicament, panic was the most prominent emotion coursing through her at the moment. "Good." He removed his hand "Now you're going to answer my questions." °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°

Minor Inconvenience: The Apocalypse by angel7450

The world ended. Rowan Blake didn't. Armed with sarcasm, a knife, and exactly zero faith in humanity, Rowan's been surviving the zombie apocalypse by following one simple rule: trust no one, care for nothing, and keep moving. Feelings? Attachments? Minor inconveniences. Like the smell of rotting flesh, you get used to it. But when a rescue mission gone sideways throws an annoyingly optimistic survivor into her path - someone who actually believes people are worth saving - Rowan faces a different kind of threat: Hope. Now, between fending off the undead, babysitting reckless strangers, and trying (and failing) not to catch feelings, Rowan might just discover that surviving the apocalypse is easy. Surviving yourself? That's the real nightmare. "Some things are harder to outrun than zombies"

FREAK SHOW by MrPuff

What happens when one of the last freakshows comes to your town? Not only is it a grotesque event viewed for pleasure at a circus but one that harbors secrets and hidden evils behind the curtains. Scarlett didn't know what to think when she heard about the circus coming to her town; her town was small, rarely anything visited it. She never expected to be ripped from her life and forced into their society of freaks, struggling to keep their business. She wasn't and would never be a freak, especially ones that didn't know right morals from wrong ones. ___________________________________ THIS STORY CONTAINS GRAPHIC MATERIAL AND POTENTIALLY TRIGGERING CONTENT: READ AT YOUR OWN RISK (18+) I WROTE THIS WHEN I WAS 14.
