Short unsettling tales born from sleepless nights and restless mind.
Some are weird. Some are kind of sad. Most of them just made me feel... off. Like something wasn't quite right, even if I couldn't explain why.
These are the things that came out when my brain wouldn't shut up-late at night, staring at the ceiling, thinking too much.
If they make you feel a little weird too, then I've done my job.

Creator's Journal
Creator's Journal opens a window into the everyday rhythm of a writer's life - the quiet mornings, restless midnights, messy drafts, and those fleeting sparks that can set entire worlds ablaze on paper. This series isn't just about writing, but about living - the small joys, the unexpected challenges, and the way stories weave themselves into ordinary days. Inside, you'll find reflections, behind-the-scenes moments, and unfiltered confessions from a creative mind that's always learning, failing, laughing... and starting again. Ever wondered what goes on in a writer's mind between coffee sips and midnight edits? Here, I pull back the curtain on the moments that shape a creative life. You'll find fleeting sparks of inspiration, unexpected challenges, and the little things that remind us why we create in the first place. Whether you're a fellow writer, an artist in another form, or simply someone who loves peeking into a creative mind at work, welcome. ☕ Pour yourself a cup, settle in, and let's share this journey-one page at a time. 📖 Comment your thoughts and tell me: When do your best ideas find you-morning or midnight?

STAB
I love the smell of my mind knocking on the door of some labyrinth and getting swallowed by a banana peel... Do you like how guilt makes you feel? If no, then take a peek inside. Do you like getting traumatized? If no, then take a peek inside. Do you like getting to see the darker aspects of a human's psyche? If no, then take a peek inside. I might be lying though, why do you trust me? I don't trust you. Neither should you... Because I'm your inner voices. *****WARNING***** -suicidal ideation, self-harm, violent urges, -mental health issues, fragmented thoughts, obsession, -nihilism, depression, hate. *****(If you have trauma, I suggest you don't read this, it might take a toll on your health. This is my coping mechanism for the random emotional bursts I get)***** Read only if you're interested in an in-depth look inside a human's psyche and philosophy.
Give me shelter
Have you ever felt so lonely you believed there was nothing left for you? Stashed away, merely forgotten. I mean you could cry and cry, yet no one would hear you. At least no one you truly once loved. Being yourself can be detrimental to others happiness, and so you down play who you are. You devalue your beliefs, your morals fall short and that hollow rock turns into your Mirror. Do you matter anymore? Would anyone care if you simply disappeared? Could you find your way out of the darkness? Look Closer is one of my favourite quotes and so I'll use it as a guide to understanding the complex characters you're about to meet.Complete

Suburban Nights ✔️
What secrets lie in the realm of the human mind? Maybe our terrible acts are due to supernatural interferences or maybe it's a sickness inside us. There's one thing for sure, though- The worst things happen in the most unexpected places... ---------------- Suburban Nights is a collection of short horror stories based on my personal experiences, thoughts, and dreams. Growing up in sleepy suburban towns have perks, but there's always something terrible bubbling beneath the surface. Story Description: 1. The Husband - Your husband has been acting a little strange lately at night. 2. The Neighbor - Your quiet home life suddenly gets really uncomfortable when you realize your elderly neighbor has been watching you through his window. 3. Public Restroom - You look back at your childhood to figure out where your fear of public restrooms came from. 4. The Screaming Woman (Pt. 1 & 2) - You wake up abruptly to sounds of a woman screaming only to be faced with your worst nightmare. 5. The People Upstairs - Your upstairs neighbors are loud and obnoxious without any regard to you. You become fed up with them until you realize what they've been dealing with. Some of these stories are not for the faint of heart and may contain blood, gore, abuse, and strong language. You've been warned.Complete
