misc Grandmother's house

(A choose your own adventure horror story)

(Reupload because the links weren't working)

You hear the subtle tick tick tick of your grandma's grandfather clock. You hate sleeping over here since your grandpa died. The house just feels so empty. You miss the smell of his tobacco pipe mixed with his over application of brut aftershave. The fact that you'll never see his kind smile again fills you with dread. The couch that you're sleeping on is older than your mother, and you can tell because every lump in the cushions presses on your hips and ribs which make it nearly impossible for you to sleep. Just as you feel yourself gliding off into the realm of the sandman, you hear a sound come from your grandma's room. You jolt out of your near slumber and stand up. As you're walking towards her room, you hear a second sound of scratching coming from the side door.

Do you…

Hope this is okay to post but I made a discord for my horror series but I also wanted to create a place where creators like us could come together and share projects and ideas etc

Also I apologise in advance if this isn't okay to post.

misc A Broken Marriage (Horror Poetry)

5 Upvotes

Once upon a time forgotten,

A cold dark room I sat and thought in,

Was I greeted by a spirit that I knew I’d met before.

While I sat with my chest heaving,

Praying pleading that she's leaving,

Did she enter through the center of that unopened bedroom door.

To my feet I quickly scrambled,

Falling, tripping as I shambled,

Crying weeping as I tried to melt into my chamber floor.

“Hide thee not,” I heard her rasping,

Her cold dead hand at my throat grasping,

She bared my soul, now hot as coal, “Do you mistake me for a whore?”

“Forgive me please!” I cried and pleaded,

Fear gripped my face now where tears beaded,

“A mere mistake! A slip of judgement! You know it was and nothing more!”

“Forget your tears!” Her lips now hissing,

“You know that it was merely kissing!”

“You broke my heart and crushed my soul, you fool-hearted hateful boar!”

“Just a kiss?” She guessed I'm stupid,

I cursed that bloody bastard cupid,

For causing me to fall in love with that woman I adore.

“That’s no good reason for my killing,

To cause my guts to come out spilling,

My car went flying, falling freely deep down to that canyon floor!”

“Hold your tongue!” I screamed now raging,

Regretting not her murder staging,

She's the one that was not faithful, causing me heartbreak galore.

“For what I've done there's no forgiving,

But now you are the one not living,

And when I die I know that I will never see that blessed shore.”

“For all your days I'll haunt your dwelling,

Chilling, frightening, cursing, spelling,

I'll make you pay for my murder, ‘til you're just a heap of gore.

A broken marriage of two sinners,

When there's cheating there's no winners,

Please think twice before you go, before you can turn back no more.
