Mothershouseofhorrors Stories

Staff Sargent Ghim Ye-Joon is a retired USMC Dog Handler struggling with some vicious demons after his return from his last deployment. At 32, he's found himself living in Carsden right by Dour Lake with his retired MPC, Caliber, and two service dogs in training, Madam and Sun. Ye-Joon had been preparing to move to South Korea to stay with family, but with all the odd events taking place in town... He might just stick around a bit longer. Written as part of Mother's House of Horrors.

Judith Goodhope has never set in foot in Carsden before, but her long search for her missing daughter, a search she's undertaken for ten years, has led her here. Alone in the world, out of options, out of money, her job teaching English to high schoolers a distant memory, her broken marriage an already dull ache, Judith holds tight to only two things in this world: her undeniable feeling that her daughter is still out there, and her recently acquired but obsessively studied deck of tarot cards. They've steered her this far. She has no choice but to trust them. She's taken a room in a boarding house in town (she'll worry about the bill later). Apparently there's some festival bringing other tourists in. There's definitely something about this town... She'll see what's in the cards.

Am I the victim, or am I the monster? Am I to be saved, or am I to be saved from? Am I innocent, or am I guilty? Or am I in the middle of this bridge? All I can do is smile and laugh, everything is a cheery summer day and I am a ray of sunshine The sun has set, but no one knows that, so in the darkness, I still try and flicker bright, just to show how strong I can be Yes, I'm a liar, if deceiving expressions are lies And with the sunset, I have lost everything (This is my entry for the Wattpad Weekly contest, Mother's House Of Horrors)
