She screamed when her boyfriend collapsed harshly to a #knee. The #raincoat kept spatter to a minimum as the storm washed away his life. It turned on her with no mercy. Skulls collected from the Headless Horseman #incarnate and reborn.

#horrorprompt #incarnate #poem #poetry #amwriting #horror #vsshorror
based on a character from Weathervane ( #novel ) and the sequel Sunsetter ( #wip ) 🦇🧛😱 #spooky #halloween

A fiend, a god, a legend, a myth:
I tell you all no child is this
Ancient blood, a residue,
amber hard, that much is true
Avert your eyes. He knows your mind
Flee east and leave this death behind
To set things right we’ll drive the wood
Immoral men will do what’s good
Smite the child, the unholy spawn, we pray it’s not too late
From dust to dust, to go he must, this evil incarnate.

based on a character from the #novel Weathervane, and the #wip Sunsetter -- continuing the tale of ancient evil in the wilds of the west.

sinew in the meat
the beast despised the grizzle
spitting out the world.

"Is this spaghetti?"
Enquires ghoul with full spoon.
"No, a bit of knee."

Lost #verve cause I finally had to block on Bluesky, but @pretty-vulgar.bsky.social is right. Jewelry arrived, not an #earring, but new labret doesn't fit. My woman's raise meant bills finally cleared until $700 to fix the vehicle. #Wind-chime, there now it's a #horrorprompt story.

A mysterious asteroid shower lit the sky. #Miasma permeated molecules worldwide, creating human mutations. Slouching, drool dripping from mouths, violent impulses ruled. Reduced to animal instinct, they ripped each other apart. The Alien Invaders came in saucers and casually took over.

It is not the air,
This #miasma has settled inside the soul,
The sickness, is his own.

“Never mind the #miasma, the last #libertine didn’t have your spirit.” The wicked man chuckled and tightened #leather straps. “You'll be quite tasty, indeed.” He rubbed oil on the terrified mother’s belly. “Ever heard of turducken?” His gaze drifted to her infant.

Prompt # 1970: miasma

They'll investigating a quarantined village. Lost to history & long forgotten. Only known to those curious enough to find it. The locals of the area call it the village of fog. Not because of the toxic air, but because you can lose yourself.
