Voices from the Old Bazaar: A Horror Anthology Series by TheIllustrrator
26 parts Complete
Step closer, into the heart of the Old Bazaar, where shadows cling to the walls like restless spirits. Every crack in the stone speaks of forgotten terror, every whisper a warning. The weight of time presses against you, as ancient storefronts bear witness to countless lives lost to madness. This is no ordinary marketplace. It thrives on the darkest corners of the human psyche-twisted desires, obsessions, and unspoken fears come alive here. Every step you take invites madness. Do you hear it? The creak of a door opening, or the beat of your own heart echoing in your chest? Time behaves differently in this place, bending reality and nightmare into one. The merchants don't peddle goods; they trade in your deepest fears. Trinkets and baubles promise fulfillment, but the true cost is hidden beneath, in the desires you thought long buried. In the Old Bazaar, nothing is as it seems. In a forgotten corner, an old woman offers a mirror that promises to reveal your deepest truth. But beware-it shows more than your reflection. It reveals the darkness you harbor within. Turn around. Do you see it? A figure in the shadows, watching. It may be a man, or something worse. Its eyes gleam with malice, knowing all you've hidden. The Old Bazaar is no dream-it is a place where nightmares are lived. You may leave, but will you truly escape? Or will the horrors you've awakened follow you, lingering long after the market has closed? Prepare yourself, traveler. The journey has just begun, and in this labyrinth, there's no telling how-or if-you'll find your way out.

Debt Collectors (ONC Entry)

12 parts Complete Mature

Entry for the Open Novella Contest II Writing Prompt #7 Soul Sickness --- The moment you lie you fall into debt. The moment you steal you go further into debt. The moment you kill you get buried in debt. Your sins are debt. And in death, your debt must be paid. Only then will you reach salvation. ... A Debt Collector is one who roams the world with a list and returns with a bag of souls, bringing them to their judgement. Saviour had resigned himself to his work, only waiting for the moment his debt is repaid but his monotonous life is brought into disarray by the optimistic Empathizer Hope who falls sick after trying to escape her duty. Hope will need to feed on souls to recover or she'll continue to expiry and never be reborn. Will Saviour choose to save Hope at the risk of being caught and ending the same as her or will he venture forth into the world? Killing those whose time has not been decreed?
