I'm the guy who knows every last fact about Spider-man and if I don't I'll track it down. I love bad movies, enjoy table-top gaming, and probably would drive you crazy if you weren't ready for it.

Those stories didn't usually end well for the children involved, children who had not exactly been angels throughout the year.

Wendigone
The teenage boy watched the tall, gaunt creature rummage through the remains of the Happy Crab Chinese buffet. When it reached for yet another dead body, its head disappearing into the buffet, he ran for the woods. The creature pulled its head out at the sound of feet crunching on snow. It pulled out of the buffet and stood at its full height to look over the surrounding area, making it just taller than the buffet. It smiled as it began to move in the boy’s direction, beginning with loping, but it was soon running.

You're fine until the eyes glow red. [Generated]A golden form flew from the stately mansion. It stopped, said a few words in Latin, and gestured at the mansion; a fireball streaked from its fingertips and the mansion exploded. The golden form flew into a red Citroen and settled into the body sleeping there. Matteo woke up, yawned, and smiled. Another coven would no longer plague humanity. BUZZ He looked at his phone; a text was waiting for him, most likely another assignment from one of his fellow benandanti. He grasped the locket at his neck, the one containing a bit of the caul that covered his infant head; he uttered a simple prayer and then picked up the phone to look at the text.

Looking For Zombie Bites
Bambi twisted the shower controls to get the hot water flowing. She stripped off her bloody clothes, piling them on the bench next to her clean clothes. Just more fuel for the fire. She grabbed her towel and tossed it over the rack. The water was steaming so she entered the shower. She grabbed the shower head and let the hot water tattoo her muscular frame, water passing over her scars and tattoos. She then put the shower head back and just put her head under the hot water, enjoying the water flowing through her long blond hair.

A Day in the Life of Grandma Bau
Administrator Yuan poured the tea to go with the opened pomegranate. He had learned to deal with many unusual situations during his time as supervisor of the Tongli Family Hospital. Most of them he just put under the header of “Grandma Bau”: the occasional missing corpse, disappearing orderlies, objects moving without visible force, even the somehow common “I loved talking to that old woman; who was she?” He even named his antacid tablets his “Grandma Bau pills” as she was the reason he went through so many.

Emotional Support Demon. Content Warning.
A black furry stuffed snake lay on the floor. When the woman finally fell into a deep sleep, the darkness pooled around the embarrassingly cute toy and coalesced into a sinewy form of a snake with taloned hands. Sespral looked at the sleeping woman. Her body was covered with bruises and cuts, some of which still bled unto the sheets below her. The reptilian demon glided over to her drawers and pulled out the first aid kit within and administered to her wounds.
