What if the hero became the villain?
Dwight "Dewey" Riley survived five Ghostface attacks over 25 years. He was Woodsboro's hero. The good cop. The loyal friend who never gave up.
Until he did.
March 2022: Dewey "dies" at Woodsboro Hospital. But he didn't die that night.
He became something worse.
Six months later, someone is watching Sam and Tara Carpenter in New York. Planning. Waiting.
Someone who knows every rule of survival-because he wrote them.
Someone wearing a Ghostface mask and a plaid flannel shirt.
This isn't redemption. This is the fall of a hero and the birth of the deadliest Ghostface who ever lived.
From beloved cop to mass murderer.
From Dewey Riley to Ghostface.
⚠️ CONTENT WARNINGS:
• Graphic violence throughout
• School stab shooting - 23 victims (Chapter 8)
• Main character deaths (murder-suicide)
• PTSD and psychological manipulation
• NO redemption arc | NO happy ending
This is the darkest Scream story ever told.

Savior: Stu Macher
STU x READER In a town called Woodsboro, the friendship between five high school students will be flipped completely upside down when a series of murders begins. A girl whose mother died A boy whose mother left A classic movie nerd The boy who is far too sensitive And you: the curious little investigator Will you find out the truth about the woodsboro murders? Will you still love him once you do? All characters besides y/n belong to the scream franchise. Some details and lines may differ from the actual movie(s). This storyline will likely be a decent bit longer than that of the actual movie, just because of what I have planned for the story. Mentionable details: - Billy has some feelings for Y/n in this. It's a part of the story, but as this is a Stu fic I won't have much come out of that. - There will be multiple point of views. - I'm going to be adding an extra killer, just to put another spin onto this story: but, this killer isn't working with Billy and Stu. Enjoy!Complete

TOO YOUNG FOR THIS, Sidney Prescott
Leaving Woodsboro felt like growing wings, freedom. I was only sixteen when I left, right after Maureen Prescott's murder. It wasn't fair to the people I loved; I left my best friends and siblings behind because I was sick of this town, I was sick of hiding. I needed to find myself, to be myself fully, loudly. Truth was, I was irrevocably in love with Sidney Prescott and I couldn't feel that way in Woodsboro, not in 1996. I never thought I would come back a year later but I had to when my twin sister Tatum called me in a state of panic I'd never witnessed before. If I had known what was going to happen, maybe I wouldn't have jumped in my car and drove "home". This story is mainly inspired by the scream movies but it won't follow the exact same timeline because I want to had some details and therefore I need to create my own timeline. I do not own any of the characters except for Y/n (your character/ the reader).Complete

"Everybody's a killer if you push them far enough." In which the survivors of woodsboro move to NYC for a new beginning, hoping ghostface won't try to make a return. Astella didn't care about ghostface, yeah maybe she cared about some of her friends but she only truly cared about keeping her secrets safe.

!Ethan Landry x Reader! As long as it takes
The 'core 5' is the group of kids that survived the last ghostface murders, the group consists of; Sam and Tera Carpenter, Chad and Mindy Meeks-Martin, and Y/N L/N. All of them decided to get out of dodge and go to a university far away from Woodsboro in hopes to escape their past traumas and live out the rest of their lives peacefully. But living a peaceful life was just wishful thinking... ghostface is back and out for blood, guts, and lots of death. What will happen to the core 5? What will be revealed? Who is ghostface? So many questions... so little time. There will be 2 separate endings for this story because why not!! This story will follow the exact events of the movie as much as possible, just with the addition of Y/N, which will make some things a bit different (I.e. dialogue and interaction). Oh yea this is happening- I know I already have 3 other story's in progress but this is very important rn...

Stu Macher x Prescott! Reader [Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Scream or it's characters. I only own my character (the reader) and the dialog I make up] Murder was something you only saw on the news, it was never something that happened to you. But when it did happen, your whole life turns into a bad horror film. At least that's what happened to my sister and I. Hi, my name's y/n Prescott and this is the story of how mine and my sister's lives changed seemingly over night. So sit down, get comfortable, hell maybe even grab some popcorn. This is going to be one killer story.Complete
