From a Whisper to a Scream
A cry for help is sometimes a silent scream. It bellows into the night only to dissipate into vapour, caught in an invisible mist of sadness that surrounds but never penetrates those who pass it by. A death shroud.Continue Reading -
Let the Right One In – John Ajvide Lindqvist

My Awakening – Part 5
Hunt. The word hung in the cold air like fog. “You mean you’re going to kill something…or somebody?” “No, WE are going to kill somebody. You had no problem killing that woman back there. This is how we survive. You’ve done it once now, it will become easier”. I felt sickened. I had just killed someone. Not only had I killed her, I drank her, all of her. And I enjoyed it. Oh God, what have I done?Continue Reading -

My Awakening – Part 4
Posted on May 28, 2009 | 8 CommentsHe spun on his heel and started to walk away. I stood motionless not knowing what to do next. Is he leaving me here to fend for myself? Do I follow him? After his body disappeared into the darkness of the surrounding trees I heard his voice. “Well are you just going to stand there?” I thought about this for a moment, actually thinking that might be the better option. This man…this thing…had turned me into something inhuman, something unspeakable, why should I follow him? The moment passed quickly as I realised that I had no idea of what was supposed to come next. I don’t know how to be a vampire. I don’t WANT to be a vampire! -

My Awakening – Part 2
Posted on May 13, 2009 | 4 CommentsPart 1 Here Strength. That’s what I’m feeling. Unbelievable bone crunching strength. I cast the girl aside and she crumples. She looks like a rag doll where the stitching has burst apart and made her head almost fall off. The image in my head makes... -
