Fear. It's a quite impressive process. Do you know what your body goes through when you're afraid? Your brain immediately goes into 'Fight or Flight' mode, which basically means that either you run from the thing or situation causing you fear (flight) or either you fight it (fight). Whatever the option you chose, your body will make preparations for the possibility of a quick escape. Your heart rate increases to pump more blood to your muscles and brain, your lungs take in air faster to supply your body with more oxygen, your pupils get larger to see better and even your digestive and urinary systems slow down for the moment so you can concentrate on the things at hand. It's pretty intense.

This is a collection of short stories, either horror or suspense one-shots. These scenarios are purely figments of my imagination, and even though I may sometime use real locations like cities or countries and such, the characters and protagonists are purely fictional, and any resemblances to existing people are purely coincidental.
If you have an idea or scenario that you'd like me to write just message me, I'll be happy to do it. Also, the picture on the cover does not belong to me, I just made the montage.
Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of.
Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains detailed scenes of murder, rape, torture, sex and stalking, which may be triggering for some readers.
