Our worst nightmares were crushed into the one person we assumed would be a monster, but never truly thought we'd see the day she actually revealed herself. Never again will I go back. But not only do I have to worry about my memories, I have to worry about the room I just ranted my life to, and the people in that room.
All I can do is warn you.... Don't trust the ones meant to take care of you, you'll definitely be a pon in a game bigger than you could've ever imagined.

Dell Gibbons is a boy who was taken to foster care at a young age. One day his class is studying trauma and his teacher asks for each student to present a story that traumatized them; whether personal or a story they read/watched. Now it's up to Dell to solve this mystery of the century. Does anyone believe him that there's a monster raging the streets? No. Would you? Didn't think so.
Will Dell be able to outrun this monster for good, or will he join the kids he declared family within the belly of the beast?



This is a story I made in class in February 2022, I might continue it. Until then, this is pending. Originally it was just a short story left as food for thought. I do hope you enjoy.

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
