There is another world at night. One only children can see. A world full of creatures adults cannot comprehend. Creatures that hide in your closet. Lurk under your bed. And wait in the shadows for an unfortunate soul to trap. But they are doomed to a life of hiding in those shadows. Except for one night of the year. A night where they are freed from the shadows. Allowed to walk among us and take unsuspecting victims. And the scariest part is we can't tell the difference between who is human and who is monster. For that night is Halloween. Only this year, they might not return to the nightly world from which they came. And since adults have no control over the creatures, it's up to the kids to cast their worst fears out into the darkness of the night. Trick-or-treat!

Souless
In a apocalyptic world, no one has a soul. All children are born from either abuse, or women raise them to abuse/manipulate. The earth is almost completely desolate, as people trick and murder each other to get what they want. The only thing left that gives a semblance of dreams is: a power that gives control over earth to anyone who touches the item. People form teams to attempt finding the thing, to destroy all life they see as unnecessary, they further trick and murder each other to get what they want, including the thing... The search for destruction destroys everyone who reaches to the power.Complete
The Apocalypse
The ice deep in the north has melted to reveal a new world hidden under the ice. It holds vegetation and animals that seem unworldly when compared to ours, but hidden in the deepest part of this world is another cave with the oldest surviving strains of an ancient bacteria capable of taking host of dead creatures and reanimating them into beasts worse than before. This strain had grown weak over the ages and was nearly extinct, but the human immune system, never being exposed to this, caused the strain to thrive inside its new unexpecting host and spreads out to the world. It starts small, just a speck on the hands of a few people, but soon, it spreads to door handles, pens, books, chairs, things like that. It continues spreading and now has infected its first corpse, the remains of an ant. This new creature comes and spreads to that ant's nest and then to the animals that eat them. Before less than a month passed, the virus had spread to a graveyard in the hidden grottos of the Yukon. This virus, now able to think from the new minds of fresh bodies, can strategize. In only another week, the epidemic had spread to the northern edge of the United States. Spreading further and further in, people began to notice this strange happening. From people disappearing to entire towns popping out of existence, the bacteria continued to spread. To keep order, the governments had those who disappeared erased from existence, but it wasn't enough. The takeover of those long gone happened in less than three weeks and society collapsed. Spreading overseas, it began its removal of life in Europe, but that's a story for another day. We now come to those few remaining settlements in the collapsed U.S, now called The Crumbled Land. What does this new land hold hidden deep in the remnants of its former glory?Complete
No exorcist, No exit
A haunted mansion. A vengeful ghost. A group of Gen Z idiots who refuse to be scared. When six friends get locked inside an abandoned mansion, they expect jump scares, creepy whispers, and maybe even a dramatic exorcism. What they don't expect is a ghost on the verge of a breakdown. Centuries of perfecting horror, and these kids? They're laughing. One asks if the ghost takes Venmo. Another challenges him to a staring contest. Someone starts live-streaming. The ghost is furious. He cranks up the haunt factor....flickering lights, slamming doors, demonic whispers. Nothing. Desperate, he resorts to possession. Bad idea. Now he's trapped in a teenager who refuses to do cardio, and the only way out is an exorcism. One problem: nobody ordered a priest. With no escape, no exorcist, and no sanity left, it's a battle of wits between the world's most exhausted ghost and a group of survivors who, quite frankly, have survived worse (like slow WiFi). Who will break first? The ghost, the kids, or reality itself? One thing's for sure, this haunting is about to be pure chaos.
