Happy October everyone! For each day of October, I will be posting a new art piece inspired by Halloween, horror, and other spooky things. Each day is a different OC, with a different little fanfiction story. They are very short, so don't expect much! Have fun ~ Please note that, because of included horror and gore themes, stories may be considered "triggering" or "sensitive." Always remember to be cautious when reading, or to avoid this book entirely!

Oh, wait! What's that? Original scary first hand accounts of creepy stories for a horror fan to read during the scary and dark autumn month - October (also Halloween month for some of you)? Did they happen or are they just fiction? Are they actually paranormal or is there a scientific explanation? Read to figure out the mystery and have fun!

Gory October prompts to push my writing in a wonderfully bloody and twisted way. [Art by @oceanssxv / Insta: not__asimp] Trigger warnings will be listed at the top of each chapter. Everything is original with a mix of past/present tense and first/third person. Enjoy ;) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Impressive Rankings: #6 goretober #5 distress #627 vomit #8 organs

I wrote a scary story for each day of October. It was very fun, you can do it next year if you want, here are the rules: The October Series Rules For this Challenge. 2 TO 5 PAGES MAXIMUM Has to be a scary story or any sort of writing form that matches the theme of Halloween. Can only spend 20 minutes on each story, including editing times. Has to focus on the scary, not on character development. Has to be vague in terms of backstory, character description, and development. The backstory is allowed but spends no more than a page on it. Have fun! Cover design and short stories by Marti

Just some short stories of mine. I hope you like it. 🌟 Happy reading ❤️💜

A collection of stories based on the singular word prompts given in the official Inktober 2025 list for the purpose of practicing writing something more horror-esque with varying levels of success. Do enjoy. Disclaimer. I want this to be horror, I don't know what I'm doing and it likely will not quite be horror, if at all.
