Summerland - #TNTHorrorContest

When a newlywed couple finds themselves lost on the way to the airport for their honeymoon, they come across the small town of Summerland which isn't on the map. It's a place out of time. After stopping for a quick bite to eat, the find themselves stranded and decide to spend their night at the home of one of the locals. It's a choice they'll quickly regret, in a town that hungers for death and blood.

Summerland was originally a short trailer written for Eli Roth's recent 30 second horror trailer contest for film. I liked the concept enough to try to change it into a short story for Wattpad's TNT short story horror contest. It's a little rough, and I'd like to add to it...but deadlines, you know? Oh, and for those curious about the title Summerland and why I named it such, I was looking through some words for witchcraft and well....things that if you're looking up and not writing stories about might cause some worry, and apparently Summerland is considered the Wiccan land of the dead. I kind of thought that fit as a title and name for the town. :D
