I envision a place where time stops, the breeze the only movement other than my own. Faceless voices whisper to me, calling me back to my sinister home. My comfort found in a palace of demise; corpses gathered inside decrepit tombs, awaiting the moment their master beckons them to rise. The sweet odor of deathContinue reading “Dark visions…”

And now for something you’ll really like…
Have you ever looked back at something and thought, “Damn. I could have done so much better”? I think we all have. Be it relationships or professional endeavors, we all can agree that hindsight is 20/20, right? If y’all have spent even a few minutes in the Twisted Libra Cemetery, you know that my booksContinue reading “And now for something you’ll really like…”
The macabre heart flutters today…
This day is special. It is significant. It should be celebrated. No, not because of some ridiculous excuse for companies to sell cards and flowers; on this day 90 years ago…Dracula made its silver screen debut! The date was February 14, 1931. What began as a Bram Stoker novel and grew into a Hamilton Deane/JohnContinue reading “The macabre heart flutters today…”
Escaping reality…
This week, I began reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. For the third time. In truth, it is the only book I have ever read more than once, aside from the Scary Stories or Tales for the Midnight Hour series. Each time I read it, I find a new sense of enjoyment for it. This timeContinue reading “Escaping reality…”

Waking up…
I started writing again today. I woke up this morning with an excellent short story in my head, so I have begun working on it today. It feels good to be inspired again, to know my voice has returned. The hiatus was long and difficult. Today, I feel content. I feel a sense of peaceContinue reading “Waking up…”
Oh, how time slips away…
Today marks one year since I lost someone very close to me. I won’t go into details here, but this morning I find myself thinking about loss. Thinking about how we, as human beings, deal with loss; particularly that of a loved one. The dead live on through our memories, brought forth by bouts ofContinue reading “Oh, how time slips away…”
The tell-tale heart is slowly beating once again…
If you read my previous blog post, you know I have been in a depressive slump for quite some time. I am glad to say that the muse has finally touched my soul once again, and I am writing. Here lies my latest endeavor: I open my mouth to shout,But nothing comes out,And I remainContinue reading “The tell-tale heart is slowly beating once again…”
Waxing poetic…
Just a little something I cooked up this morning…enjoy! Darkness has a scent. Closing my eyes I breathe it in deeply And long to be set free. I want to slip away Away into the night sky Drifting among the tombstones And cemetery trees. Oh! To dance Upon my own grave. Oh! To see thoseContinue reading “Waxing poetic…”
Rest in Peace…
Spirits of the Dead Thy soul shall find itself alone’Mid dark thoughts of the gray tombstone—Not one, of all the crowd, to pryInto thine hour of secrecy. Be silent in that solitude, Which is not loneliness—for thenThe spirits of the dead who stood In life before thee are againIn death around thee—and their willShall overshadow thee: beContinue reading “Rest in Peace…”
