With a sharp carving knife, the pastor sliced off a thick slab of the terrified man's calf as he screamed in agony. "Our Lord Jesus Christ, on the night when He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it and gave it to his disciples and said, 'Take; eat; this…
Angel
Eleven-year-old Shawn had recently moved to the small town of Salisbury, Idaho, with his parents and six-year-old little sister, Amanda. They arrived in an old but well maintained Station Wagon and moved into a large suburban house with a two-car garage and white picket fence. Although his sister adjusted to life in Salisbury relatively quick,…
Modern Vampyre – Prologue
Contrary to popular belief, vampyres do exist. The modern interpretation, however, is so far removed from reality that one would hardly know a vampyre if it bit him to his face. -William S. Christos Somewhere in New England, 178X As the rain beat down upon the roof of a horse stable with torrential might, two…
Shadow Demon
Hi. My name's Sammie. This is going to sound crazy, but I'm pretty sure that something is planning to kill me. I don't know what it is, but he's been toying with me for years. I say he because that's what I can most assume from its shape, but honestly, I don't know. What I…
Letters from Unsung Heroes: The Train – Franklin Millsborrow
Dearest Agatha, I've had a most dreadful experience. As I'm sure you are aware by my lack of arrival, the train has failed. I have been trapped with the rest of the passengers for two seemingly whole days, though I cannot be sure. I, like most people here, have been sustaining myself on stale doughnuts…

My Darling Katherine, I apologize for my delay. The train which I have boarded seems to have broken down in a tunnel which no light can penetrate. It's been very quiet and I've kept to myself as to not create a disturbance. Most here, at least of those from my car, seem to have the…
Where We Put Our Faith

Smoke rose up from the cigarette between his fingers as he stared at the bright screen. It had been a particularly miserable day and he felt completely drained. He scrolled down…
Letters from Unsung Heroes: The Train – Sam Davis
Yesterday a young girl left her mother's side and began walking in circles, chanting ceaselessly. "Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so." It was quite chilling, really. She attacked a man who tried to help her and then went back to her circle as though nothing had ever happened. Today…
Letters from Unsung Heroes: The Train – Jacob Edger
A child died today. By my estimate, she was somewhere between ten and thirteen. I don't know what happened. But it shook me to my core. It was not long after the lights went out and the train stopped. We were sitting there in our seats quietly. It was pitch black and no one spoke a…
Letters from Unsung Heroes: The Train – Ester Heraldine
Dear Mildred Pardon my lateness but I have been stuck on the train for almost two whole days. There seems to have been a power outage of some sort and we're stranded in the tunnel. I'm not sure how much longer it shall be, but I hope the power is restored soon; people seem to…
