Halloween Challenge: Fog

Here is day 19 of JNW’s Halloween Challenge: Fog

Read slowly and let your imagination unfold.

[Begin scene]

A dark and old cemetery, shrouded in a heavy fog…

Unable to see through the thick cloud cover hovering around the stones you instead strain to listen…

A scraping sound permeates the air, the sound of something dragging…

A loud thud! just beyond the fog’s edge, what could it have been?…

A night bird screeches in the distance, the scraping stops in response…

Your fear begins to express itself as you start to quiver, a sense of dread imminent…

Unable to quell the feelings building inside you, you flee, leaving whatever was in there behind.

Safely away, you can relax and enjoy the rest of your day 🙂

[End scene]

 

I hope you found it enjoyable!

Halloween Challenge: Blood

Here is day 18 of JNW’s Halloween Challenge: Blood

[Begin scene]

This single drop of blood,

Shall make the brew complete…

 

To change a harmless bud,

Into a plant with several feet…

 

It will run around the block,

Giving everyone a fright…

 

Right up until the clock,

Rings out it is midnight…

 

So listen for the whistle,

Of the train midnight express…

 

To know this grown up thistle…

Has finally come to rest.

[End scene]

Scene: Spun Gold

[Begin scene]

Stretching twig to twig, a pattern finely woven, capturing more than just light…

Golden rays glowing through the fine threads making this humble home sparkle…

More than just a place to live, this home is an expression of beauty, and a means of food and water…

That such a small creature can build such large webs day after day is nothing short of impressive.

[End scene]
