What is it about the dark that makes us afraid?  Most people say that it's the not knowing what's there, but that's not answering the question.  Nobody really fears the unknown so much as they fear what might be there.  So then, what is it that might be in the dark that scares us?  What is it about the bump in the night that makes us jump?  What is it about the closet door being cracked open that makes us uneasy?  What do we think will get us?  Maybe not what, but who.  I've seen what's in the dark.  I've seen what causes the uneasy feeling to run up the back of your neck.  I know what, and who, fear is because I have seen...   Fear Itself

Eyes Like Hellfire [Completed] by thepositivemetal
11 parts Complete
"Sitting in the corner in front of me was Zoe. But then again, it wasn't. It had her body, but it was warped into something vile. Her eyes were glazed over in the same blood red, hellfire taking over her pupils. Her hair was darker than before, if that was possible, her skin lighter, her veins visible. But the worst was her smile. It wasn't the smile I knew. The way her lips curled up, her teeth slightly shown, wasn't Zoe. The crooked smirk, the hollowness of her laugh, that wasn't Zoe. That was something else entirely." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ They say that eyes are the windows to the soul. So what does it mean when I look into her eyes and see the fires of hell? I'm Mickey. A small town girl with a small town's view of the world. But after going into that house, things get a little freaky in Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. Reoccurring dreams keep me awake, and memories haunt me during the day. But then, I meet Zoe. Combat boots, metal music, and red highlights, with a fiery attitude to match. With a fear of next to nothing and curiosity the size of North America, she's the reason I find myself in that house again. But this time, we don't come out of there so lucky. As ghosts become reality, and demons become things that aren't only found in horror movies, we find out that we must help what's good and send what's evil back to where it truly belongs. And when those demons become problems, both figuratively and realistically, we soon find out that this is a test that we need each other to pass. Highest Ranking: - #89 in Ghost Story - #613 in Paranormal (not incredibly high or anything, but I'm proud)

(THE SERIES BELONGS TO PENELOPE DOUGLAS) 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝟏 To the new Horsemen and Cowgirls, Devil's Night is more than a tradition; it's in their blood. Under the cloak of darkness, they become echoes of their parents-driven by the same unquenchable thirst for danger, power, and control. The night is their playground, where rules are shattered, and the thrill of the forbidden pulses through their veins. Like their parents before them, they revel in the chaos, the secrecy, and the seductive pull of fear that only the darkness can provide. They are the heirs to a legacy of rebellion, a fire that can never be extinguished-born to rule the night and continue what their parents began. In their hands, Devil's Night is a ritual, a rite of passage where the past and present collide, leaving behind a trail of whispers, shadows, and the unmistakable scent of sin. *** 𝑰𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒆 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒚𝒔𝒐𝒏, my Little Ballerina. She used to be mine, whether she knew it or not. That night-Devil's Night-changed everything for her. She looked at me with those terrified eyes, and yeah, maybe I broke something in her. But I never intended to fix it. I don't regret what happened. Why should I? She can try to run from it, from me, but we both know she'll never really escape. Not from what I did, and definitely not from who I am. She's still mine. Always was, always will be. *** 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒊. He was the shadow I could never escape, no matter how far I ran. That night-Devil's Night-he shattered everything. What he did... I'll never forget. I see it every time I close my eyes. He's maddening, dangerous, and completely unapologetic. I wish I could hate him, but part of me is still caught in his web, trapped by the past we share. He never let me go. And maybe, deep down, I'm afraid he never will.

History is written by the victors. It's something we've known for years. The classic biblical tale depicts an eternal struggle between gruesome demons and gallant angels. Good vs. evil. Light vs. dark. But what if this is just another skewed perception of history? What if the truth is so much darker then a black and white tale? Jason Teufel is haunted by dreams of an ancient battlefield field covered with fire and smoke, monstrous creatures fighting legions of angels, and hidden gems that glow with power. Of these nightmares, it is the hall that scares him the most. Cold and dark, he is dragged through a long hallway night after night, the still breath of death bearing ever down on him. When a terrifying vampire by the name of Moragan, kidnaps Jason in the hopes of resurrecting a terrible evil, he is forced to confront the horrors of his mind. Hunted by angels and demons alike, the once cut and dry biblical fiction becomes so much hazier then it had once seemed. Evil fights evil and good seems suspiciously absent from either side. With nothing as it should be, Jason must traverse the bowls of the earth, each step unlocking a new clue to the reason behind the war of Heaven and Hell. As the dreams become clearer, Jason becomes colder. Perhaps a "gift" from Moragan or perhaps something that has always been there, the darkness within begins to change him. Now there is a choice that must be made, with the truth laid bare at his feet, will he cling to the old ideas of history or will he resist the powers that be...

Suburban Nights

8 parts Complete Mature

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.
