It's night and the hood is quiet for once. Maybe a bit too quiet. I need to get my ass home quick. I'm mad tired from working a double shift at the nursing home. I really don't like walking around Roxbury at night. It's scary out here, people. Lots of psychos and gangsters walking around and all kinds of crazy shit is going on. In case you're wondering who...
She was running errands on a Saturday afternoon. He was busy working so she wasn't particularly worried about watching the time. She told him she would likely make something for dinner as he didn't know what time he would be finished. He didn't think he would feel like going out again. He had left early, before she had gotten out of bed. He left a soft kis...

Walter Wimple, was a loser. He was born unlucky, and it only got worse as the years went by or so it seemed to him. He was small, thin hair, no muscles and no backbone. People walked all over Walter all the time. He especially had a terrible time each Valentine’s Day. It seemed like something terrible always happened. When he was four his dog died on Valent...
Emily was pretty sure that all the warnings about the deeper, darker parts of the woods were nonsense, tall tales to tell frightened children. Her parents told them too, of course, of monsters and wizards, ready to capture you and eat you up.
