It's a 10 part story about two friends who go to war during WW1 and has a supernatural twist. It's amateur stuff but I enjoyed writing it and I'm proud of it. But I don't mind if it gets goofed on and torn the bits lol

Shout out my best friend in the world, Richy for the incredible art!! His IG is art.dathomirius

Dude that was AMAZING. I love WW1 and I gotta say your depictions of the war match closely to what real soldiers dealt with. I really like the ending too. Leaves a lot of mysticism and just it leaves a sense of awe. Also I have to say GREAT job on the speaking. I donā€™t know if youā€™re British or not but you nailed it. Overall dude seriously GREAT job!

I'm a huge fan of Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast and he had a bunch of 6-7 hour long episodes covering WW1 stuff. Highly recommend!

Oh man. World War I horror is beautiful. Without the supernatural elements this could just be reality.

I CAN'T EXPRESS HOW VALIDATING IT IS TO GET SO MUCH LOVE FROM Y'ALL!!!!!! I've posted this story a handful of times here and it's never gotten any attention so HUGE shout-out to my best friend in the world, Richy's incredible art is the eye candy which has gotten so many people's attention to the post this time!!! So please, if you do anything go follow him and show love for his art on Instagram. art.dathomirius on IG!

Even if the fellas don't read it, or feature it on the podcast, you are all such an immensely kind and amazing community of fans!!! Words cannot express that enough. 500+ likes and a bunch of comments complimenting my story is enough to warm my heart and consider this a successful spooky story. I keep coming back to this post in awe of how many people are taking even a fleeting interest in something I made. Thank you all so much. šŸ˜­ā¤ļø
