  1. 🕯 There’s a different kind of darkness — the kind passed down, half-whispered, never fully explained.

    Dark Descent is inviting folklore, myths, reflections, and dark artwork inspired by the uncanny. A place for stories that linger rather than shout.

  2. My husband keeps asking why I lock the bedroom door at night.

    I don’t have a husband.

    This morning, I found our wedding video.

    I watched myself walk down the aisle.

    Halfway through, I started screaming.

    Everyone kept smiling.

  7. Every mirror in my flat shows me smiling.

    I stopped smiling an hour ago.

    Their smiles didn’t.

    They’ve slowly turned into smirks.

    Like they know what happens next.

  12. Old folklore gets wonderfully disturbing when you realise how many rules were basically:

    Don’t answer it. Don’t follow it. Don’t invite it inside. Don’t tell it your name.

    Which, naturally, makes me want to know what happens when you do.

  13. it's horror author Emma E. Murray's birthday today!

    She's not on Fedi, but having a writer whose book I've written about have their birthday on Friday the 13th feels like a prompt from the universe to remind folks about her wonderful novel, Shoot Me In The Face On A Beautiful Day.

    If you like extreme horror with a literary edge, this is an exemplary choice.
