Lucid Nightmare - Devoured By Cannibal

“It is better to fall among crows than flatterers; for those devour only the dead — these the living.” — Antisthenes (444-371 BC).
It was a lazy Thursday afternoon and I felt the curtains of deep slumber calling out to me. I had been trying all week to have a lucid dream, particularly one filled with [...]

The Waffle House Massacre

12:00 Midnight
I could feel strangeness in the air as I drove through the midnight mist. A full blood-moon eerily hung, spilling it’s maddening radiance across the black gulf water, which was but a short distance from highway 90. It was a desolate night, and I was the only car on the road. I rolled my [...]

The Blood River Flesh Hunter

Kuagili knelt to the blood river’s edge, her knees seated in warm black crystalline mud - a breathing plaque, percolating on transparent flesh. Cities of iridescence - muscular neurons firing off sparkled atop the liquid surface as it undulated - a gelatinous billow of shimmering flow.
She was tired of running. Seven long days [...]

Silent Dreams of Nothingness

I sat alone in blackened mist, a cold chill slithering across my flesh…shivering. Where was I? who am I? Out of the nebulous drabness of night, screamed the endless bellows of silence. I tried to move but could feel nothing - no ground beneath my feet. Though alive, I could not inhale any air…a pleasurable [...]

Killing Old Hag

I’m wandering through the frozen foods section in Wal-Mart wearing an ornate aura of nomadism, which masks my wicked intentions. Frozen dinners are the main part of my diet and I love shopping for them.
I’m reading the label on on a box of frozen egg rolls for twenty-five minutes while this vulgar old hag impatiently [...]

Lick Your Fingers Clean

There it was again…my peripheral vision playing tricks on me, this quivering black shadow. I turned to look - evaporating, producing a humid steam…an exhalation of pungent dead man’s breath. I tried to comprehend where I was, the shadows of confusion encrusting my reality…what the hell is going on?
Oh my God…the morbid stench splashed across [...]

Dread’s Duet - My Real Tale of Horror

Death’s Beauty
Dreaded outcomes
despised harvest
ending up like that
the lonely one
becoming my nightmare
without a fight
numb as a dead body
cold reality buried
expression, my only gift
earned in blood
descriptions egressing
from sores of pain
cold fingers of misery
coaxing every drop
Beautiful deaths shimmer
as distant liquid flames
breezes scented
flavours sweetened
endless finalities
final breaths forever
the last goodbye
a reflection of always
Deaths hand as limp carcasses
draping sickly
like wet [...]

Halloween Blood Feast

I was extremely apprehensive about revealing this horrible element from my past, but I must tell the world because it is killing me inside. Halloween is upon us and is the perfect time. I am deeply ashamed of what happened that night, when my friends and I gathered for something that scorched lacerations of blackened [...]
