 Speak Not the Words

Beyond our ken lies the black doorway, the bridge to the otherworlds.  There wait the ancient gods Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, Azathoth, and Nyogtha. Blocked from our world, they send forth their minions, those who skulk in the shadows, hiding from the human race infesting what was once their masters’ world.

Orifices gnash in anticipation of sucking flesh and blood. Waiting for the day when the book is found, and the Old Ones walk again, destroying sanity and bringing death to mankind.

In the eternal darkness of their horrific triumph they will roam the Earth once again.

Penetration Hurts

Penetration hurts. That’s the lesson I teach my johns. Like yesterday. This middle-aged mech-junkie comes in. Says he wants ‘something new.’ I hooked into his brain and generated a four-way orgy, but it wasn’t enough. So I got physical, gave him the real thing. He screamed when he felt the fifteen-centimeter appendage slide into his rectum. Called me a freak. They’re all the same. They all want something new but then they can’t handle it. That’s okay. In two weeks he’ll find out what something new really means. Hope he likes being a mother.

Who’s the freak now?

Spaceport Krishnas

It was Tad’s first trip off-planet. The plan was to start in the main lounge. Every port has one. We grabbed our duffels and that’s when we realized he was missing.

“I warned him to stay close,” McGuire said. “This ain’t no place for a preacher’s son.”

That’s when we saw the them, handing out their pamphlets. Damn Condolians. You’ve probably seen ‘em too, preaching to anyone who walks by. Don’t matter if you’re on Earth or Milos 7.

I got a sinking feeling in my stomach.

Sure enough, McGuire spotted Tad’s leg sticking from one’s belly sac.

Religious freedom. Ain’t it great?

Happy Anniversary

Covered in mold and clotted soil, the skeletal hand burst from the ground and grabbed Julia. As she screamed in horror, Jonathan swung a wine bottle at the inhuman creature pulling itself from the earth. In return, the undead thing’s yellowed finger bones clawed deep furrows across Jonathan’s face, removing an eye in the process. Jonathan fell back, howling n agony. Rotten, black teeth bit deeply into Julia’s throat, silencing her cries. The revenant pulled Julia’s body back into the hidden grave she and Jonathan had dug last year.

The thing that had once been Julia’s husband began to feed.

When the Lights Go Out

Darkness is our time. We emerge from the shadows, hiding ourselves from the human race infesting the world that once was ours. Orifices gnash in anticipation of sucking flesh and blood. Waiting for the day when the book is found and the Old Ones return. In the eternal darkness of their horrific triumph we will roam the Earth once again.

Friends Unseen

 Catherine Cavendish is the author of  several novels and novellas, including The Devil's Serenade, Dark Avenging Angel, Saving Grace Devine, and The Pendle Curse. Today she's here to talk about some rather unsettling imaginary friends. When you were growing up, did you have an imaginary friend? Did they seem real to you? Maybe sort-of-real. You could talk to them, imagine their responses, play with them - but you probably kept the ‘relationship’ within certain boundaries, however young you were. In my case, I invented an entire family of siblings – three sisters (two older, one a few years younger) and an older brother who looked out for us girls. Being an only child, I found them comforting, and fun, but I never imagined them to be real. They, in turn, kept themselves firmly lodged in my own mind and never attempted to cross any boundary into the real world. In my novel, The Devil’s Serenade, my central character also had an imaginary family when she was a child

October Frights Blog Hop Day 5

 WHEN AUTUMN ARRIVES   Fall is here. I can smell it.   The air of each season has a certain feel, a certain smell, that defines it. For a long time, I thought this was just a subconscious thing. We know the date and thus the moment you get a cool day at the end of August, you start thinking about fall.  But a few years ago I decided it has to be more than that. There must be some internal mechanism, an interpretation of the data the senses are gathering, that lets a person know change is in the air. Just like you can sense when a storm is coming even if the sky is clear. It happens all the time. You go outside on a beautiful summer day, maybe to check the garden or walk the dog. Fall, Halloween, the end of summer, none of that is on your mind. Yet the moment you step outside, a cool breeze greets you and you instantly think, "Autumn is here." There’s no reason to actually feel this way. The day is warm; that slight chill in the air is just a stray current, same as whe

Women in Horror Month Guest Blogger: Yvonne Navarro

She’s won more than 5 writing awards and been nominated for several others. Her short stories are frequently features in annual Year's Best Horror anthologies. She is a font of knowledge about writing, but in today’s blog she’s talking not about the craft of writing, but the life outside it. ====================================== Live in the Moment by Yvonne Navarro             So here I am, having agreed to write a blog (again) and with no concept of what to write about (again).   I’m a writer, so I should write about writing, right?   Please.   I’m one of the Old Ones.   No, I’m not ninety years old (although sometimes I feel like it) and banging this out on an antique Remington typewriter where I hear a ding! and have to use the carriage return lever at the end of every sentence.   But there were
