What If

   Is it the night that you´re scared of or the monster that lurks within it.   Are you scared of the dark and the unknown, or the light of the moon and the darkness of humanity, it shines upon. The dirty deed,the hunt and the killing it reveals,ignites and shines upon. Is it the knock on the door or a thump in the night. Are you scared of that noise or who is making it? Almost always, there is nothing there,a figment of your imagination. However, isn´t the fear of the unknown one of the greatest. The fear of that what could be,the fear of it being real this time and what happens next.    As the moon makes way for the sun´s morning light,what if,just if,one of these days, the sun doesn’t come. What if the monsters do come to life and they are all too real,all too close and join the ranks of those who lurk already. What if the moon is the new guide you follow,and the glow it gives is all you have,the one you cannot pick or choose.The glow with much darker ...

When the town is fast asleep

Scream!It was right in the dead of the night. I remember that night so well but I digress.Let’s get back to how it began.    That house was always creeping me out. Weird shadows,always covered in the dark.It felt like sun did not shine at that corner of the street at all. There were always stories about the house and the people,the owner,who lives there. Initially,18 th century house was standing right here. Full of character,stories and lots of creep factor but not too long ago it was gone. Demolished,destroyed and the new owner built a swanky new mansion. Stylish,modern,minimalistic. Understandably, whole street was excited,we all took an interest in what is going on.i think that would be fair to say. Someone famous or rich or both has moved in,we thought.Hmmmm,looking back on it,it would not be surprising if you would mistake this man for a star or just a man with power and money. He was oozing confidence and was radiating power. Nobody knew who he was though...
