💀 The stories are in.
This month's Dark Descent Picture Prompt entries are live — and it's you who decides which three get published in the Dark Descent Monthly Magazine. Not a panel. Readers like you.
Read them. Vote for the one that stays with you after.

🕯 Something I keep thinking about — the most enduring horror often isn't invented. It's remembered. Folklore passed down with the volume deliberately lowered. A place, a ritual, a moment that doesn't resolve cleanly 🖤
Dark Descent Monthly Magazine is open to writers and artists working in that territory. If you've been holding something that doesn't fit neatly into fiction, it belongs in the ShadowSphere.

🖤 If the poem only works after midnight, it probably belongs here.
Nightmare Poetry is the Dark Forum group for original horror verse — work that unsettles, disturbs, and lingers. Share it. Talk atmosphere. Read what other people posted and stay a while.
A small number of poems may be selected as Editor’s Choice for the next issue of Dark Descent. Selective. Never guaranteed.
Horror comes first.

I woke up because something was crawling across my arm.
Tiny pale worms covered my skin.
I brushed them off.
More pushed through the pores underneath.
By the time I reached the bathroom mirror, they had started moving toward my eyes.

The crack in the pavement was warm, so I looked inside.
Far below, a city burned beneath a black sky. Thousands stood in the streets, burning without dying.
One looked up.
It had my face.
Then they all did.
They pointed behind me.

Podcast Episode: ROCK DEDICATION: He Never Died (Dedicated to JEFFREY
Now I know the mysteries of the sea, Tranquil emerald hues, emerald blues, enrapture me, Forever embraced with the mermaid queen, Now I know why the mariner nervously glances, Why no one on Grand Isle will ever say he died. For I too, will never die. They say he never died! In the night his spirit glides, Through the cold the sea roars, Pierre lives on forevermore. -

They thought it was random.
It wasn’t.
Every report begins the same way:
a silence where something should be.Then a sound that doesn’t belong.
Then a rule they were never told.
After that, there are no witnesses.
Some records are still accessible: https://odhawrose.eu/

She burned the tree to save him.
Something screamed from underground.
Not human.
Not animal.
Not dying just angry.links.odhawrose.eu

The forest went silent first.
No birds.
No wind.That’s when they realized it had started.
And they were already inside it.

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.
