There’s really only one way to put it: Bly is screwed.
Living out of a trailer in a small town that loved to hate him, he was just the notorious village alcoholic, a teenage mechanic with a tragic back-story. Sure, he was a miserable drunk, but his life was simple. Mundane. Blasé. And, thanks to some family connections, he’d never been in much trouble.
Then the women started to disappear. Animals went missing. There were strange "sightings."
The police are looking for a killer. Women leaving the foggy Colorado village of Darkwood are being targeted by someone (or, dare they think, someTHING) with a vengeance. The media has picked up on the story and they're crying "serial killer." Darkwooders are panicked by rumors of an unknown terror lurking within the forest-fringed town limits. With the FBI now on the case, all of Darkwood lives in fear of "The Farewell Man."
As they slowly unravel the bloody trail, it begins to look as if all roads lead to the local screw-up.
The evidence says Bly is a killer.
And the worst part? Bly isn't sure he's not.

The Loner [A Duskwood Fanfic]
I had always been a Loner. Some tough shit left me an Orphan but when Thomas asked me to help find a friend of a friend, then the Hacker showed up, I got close with Jessy that reminded me of Tucker; My gut instinct sensed something bad afoot, and I was horribly right. I fell for the Hacker named Jake, he promised he'd meet me in Duskwood after we found Hannah but here I am where I've been for six months in a provincial little village. Alone still. Or Am I? ***Be Warned, Trigger Warnings for Violence and many other Mature themes.*** All Duskwood characters and places belong to Everbyte. ©️ All the others are mine and as always Fictional even though I may use actual towns in this fanfic they're Fictional. all rights reserved ©️Completa
Betrayal's Gift
Within the wrestling world of bright lights and fast money, a lost wanderer dwells. He is not human, like those he works with. Even he doesn't know what he is. To live, he must prey on others and stay hidden in the nights. He lives in a world of shadows cut off from feeling the loss of the light. The need and urge to kill is strong. So strong that he battles it daily. By the hour. The stark bleakness of his world fades only when he is in the ring, surrounded by the emotions of his fans. He uses this to fight the darkness inside him. They become his anchor to sanity. Until he sees her. This is set before All Roads and Bloody Desire in a timeline in which humans are still unaware of the magic and paranormal creatures living among them. It is one of my older stories that I'll be posting periodically as I edit. So it is a bit rough still.Completa![The Lamprey [1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/388160739-256-k759738.jpg)
The Lamprey [1]
Witches are stealing human bodies. They use them to deceive other humans, to slaughter them, devour them whole. The only way they can die is by fire, and when fire is involved, things burn. With the gods absent and the world ablaze, its up to the witch-slayers to put it out. But it's a losing battle. Gremaud has nothing and wants nothing but the strength to save his burning kingdom from fire. But prophecy follows in the wake of his comrade, the chosen one. Visited by Smoke, a mysterious voice carried by wind, he is warned against his own will, but is left with only envy for his comrade- and hate. The chosen one is Adler, and he's the strongest soldier the Old Dominion has seen since the heroes of old. Adler is also the crown prince, raised safely behind walls by men and women whose only goal was to gain his favor, and his throne. So he's done with glory, comfort, and prophecy. At the end of the world, all he wants is a real friend. The bastard Evane is past his prime, and weak to stop the flames that engulf his homeland. In fact, he's already been burned by fire, and now walks mutilated and hated by the oppressive theocracy which promises equality and peace. But unable to fight and blessed with illegal magic, he's found the only way to put out the fire is to stop fighting with it. The Lamprey is a grimdark horror with graphic themes, including gore, violence, and trauma.
Midnight in Duskwood
After her mother passed away a week later, MC returned to her home and left the hectic city life. She discovered an old hand phone inside her mother's desk while cleaning the house, but it was empty. She was suddenly interrupted by a call on that hand phone. Thomas asked her if she knew where Hannah, his girlfriend, was since he had gotten a message from her with a phone number. She has been joined to a group chat with Hannah's friends and family while she is still perplexed. After all the commotion from the group chat, a hacker by the name of Jake got in touch with her. He asks for MC's assistance in finding Hannah, and MC must comply because she has no other option. The more information the MC learned about Hannah and the others while looking for clues, Jake and MC thought one of Hannah's friends was responsible for Hannah's disappearance. Then, MC learned about the man without a face, legendary Duskwood creature; he leaves a raven's mark on the doors of the worst sinners. Each year, on the night of the first new moon, he returns to the houses he has marked, drags anybody inside-guilty or not-out into the forest, never to be seen again. MC initially refused to believe in paranormal phenomena, but as time went on, inexplicable catastrophes began to occur. The faceless individual attacked Jessy, threatened Cleo's mother in a letter, and painted a red raven symbol on Richy's garage. Jake and MC continue their investigation into Hannah's disappearance because it appears that no harm has been done until Richy was attacked by the man without a face in the woods and was bleeding. What will MC do after that? Will she finish her inquiry or halt it before another person dies? ****************************************************************** English is not my first language, I'm sorry for grammar error ⚠️ All rights to Everbyte Credit picture : Google & UnsplashCompleta
THE HAUNTING TRUTH-I
An old folktale that was just a bedtime story to many children who love the taste of murder-mystery or fear. In other ways, the best remedy is to put their children off to sleep. But, not every folktale is true but what if it becomes a reality? This could erase the existence of science. Everything disappears to dust and there's no way that you can retrieve the real facts because it's too late. This story is not about quantum reality but a folktale which was said to be just a bedtime story turns out to be a reality in this small town known as Brightbury located in the countryside to the east of London, blessed with magnificent waterfalls and nature is always grateful to the people of Brightbury. But, even though it's blessed with the beauty of nature, the town shares a dark history that was buried by the government to tackle the financial crisis. Everyone knows the truth but no one can reveal it to any tourist. Not every story has a happy ending or sad ending, but everything is just a mystery. Well, this story will reveal the mysterious scenes which are highly depicted in the past. The whole town experiences the pain of suffocation as the truth is finally revealed to the world but the question is do the town suppress the truth or does the world aides them to safety? It's not easy to trust anyone in this story, but how the world works is different. The truth, the betrayal, the hope, the friendship, the trust, the loyalty, and everything is shattered due to some folktale. They say it haunts children but as an evolution of the world is possible, the evolution of monsters is possible. Things are not the same as it was but the question of the story is will they survive or perish?Completa

PART1: It's been three months since Elena McClain found Hannah and Richy after their disappearance. But hasn't she received even a single message from Jake since that day either. He just... Disappeared. For several weeks she tried to find him, but after a while she thought he just gave up on her and left her. After finishing Hannah's case, Elena McClain decided to move to Duskwood. One night, she receives a strange message from the unknown number... But it isn't from Jake. It turned out that Jake has been found and kept by the government and only she can save him. It's the second time when she has to solve the riddle to save someone's life. Jake has been waiting for her for three months but... What if it's too late? _____________________________________________ [MARCH 2023: THE STORY WAS CORRECTED] This fanfic takes place after episode 9 in the mobile game DUSKWOOD. I was waiting for episode 10 so I decided to create my own story. The story contains violent scenes, sexual content, strong language and adult content. This story contains graphics and photos from public resources so I don't have copyright to them. I use them in a creative way - I diversify them and add my personal artistic vision. I have copyright to my personal artwork. The story focuses on the story of Elena and Jake in the DIC which is my created universe, but the story still contains the themes of the game "Duskwood". These threads, of course, belong to Everbyte Studio. English is not my first language. Please, forgive me my mistakes.Completa
