  • For the Fright of it All

    For the Fright of it All

    Why do ghost stories still scare me? I know they aren’t real. Still, I psych myself out at the most random moments. For instance, I’ll simply be washing my hands in the bathroom. Then from the corner of my eye, I could have sworn I saw the shower curtain move. I stare at it hard,

    The Living Portraits

    She wanders through the halls of her abandoned family home, most of it resembling remains of the catacombs. Except for the portraits, as they still hang. Sneaking secret glances, she feels the first pang. They glare as though they know what she’s done. Of course they do! They had known before it begun. Steadying her

  • Thanks For Helping, But Not Really

    All I could hear, all I wanted to hear, were my feet pounding against the pavement. I gulped in air as the stitch in my side was threatening to crumple me and my heart was preparing to burst. I finally reached the high school and looked for a loose board. Found two. Although stained red,

  • I Think I’m Ready Now

    I Think I’m Ready Now

      I was returning home from school, walking down Winona St. It was a foggy day, and I tightened my grip on the the straps of my backpack when I noticed the fog becoming thicker. I already knew I was dreaming- I wasn’t in school and didn’t live here anymore. But there was no threat

  • These are a few of my favorite things

    What was your favorite or most memorable childhood toy? You’d be surprised what kind of answers come from asking that question. You might even surprise yourself with your own answer, remembering long ago moments you didn’t think you’d ever think of again. How did you get the toy? Was it a reward? A gift? Something
