Don't Fall Asleep

"Please make his wish come true too, Anna," I said, reaching out a hand to touch her, but quickly changed my mind. She still made me uncomfortable. I stared at her for a moment more, then looked away. Then immediately looked back again. Something seemed different about her. I walked from side to side, trying to figure out what was different. Was it her pose? Did she get sun bleached? Nothi...

"All color drained from my face as I was greeted with the sight of the eight foot tall beast standing before me on its hind legs. Twenty Nines head was cocked sideways with one eye focused on me. Its pupil seemed to grow and shrink rapidly as it scanned over my entire body. Its lower jaw slowly moved up and down as it began to vocalize again. " "If Missing Livestock Returns, Kill It Im...

"I was choking. The fetid air that I dragged into my lungs felt like fire. Fighting down the urge to cough I placed the penultimate block on my precarious stack, praying to a God I didn't believe in that it wouldn't fall.

"Hovering about fifty feet above me was the Owl Man. With a wingspan of over twelve feet, far larger than any of the Great Horned Owls that inhabited the mountains, he blocked out most of the moon. His head was that of an owl, his body human-like, although covered with dark feathers, with sharp talons that reflected the moonlight. As he looked down on me with two large orange eyes, I turned ov...

"There was nothing reflected in the mirror, none of Nolan's room, or of him, or of me. The entire frame was filled with a mass of what looked like black, oily eggs, each of them glistening and emitting an aurora of shifting, dancing color that seeped out, through the glass and over the mantle where it poured down to the grate in a wave. I knew what I was looking at—I'd seen it before....

"It was just like in the movie scenes of young people viewing apartments in the city. The tiny space seemed large to us, those floors a marvel. The fireplace could not be used but would add atmosphere. The window looked out on horrors but brought in buckets of cheerful light. This is someone else’s dream, I thought." -- The author: Christ Nogle https://twitter.com/christinogle?lang=en ---...

"You can’t just go strolling around Annedale, certainly not at night. It’s dangerous. For one thing, it attracts a constant rotation of the deeply unwell who are likely to attack on sight, if you’re lucky. They usually turn up in the halls come morning, although sometimes it’s just bits of them that I come across. Strips of skin floating on the brackish water that floods the basement stairwell...

"I tried to open the door, but it was locked. I went over to the passenger side and found it locked too.

I spotted the Magic 8-Ball at a garage sale. I hadn’t seen that thing in—Jesus—thirty years. But the moment my eyes passed over it, I knew what it was, whose it was. The remains of a Strawberry Shortcake sticker still clung to the sides, jagged, as if pulled off roughly or in a hurry. Might as well have been stamped: Property of Henna Fezzel....
