Happy 2022, all! A belated Weekend Challenge is here for you, and themed to my task for today.... which is to watch the new episodes of Ghost Hunters and Kindred Spirits.
Obviously, these prompts (from Masterclass, so they must be good?) are intended for writing a scary story, but WE DON'T FOLLOW RULES HERE.
Maybe your characters of choice are talking about a movie they just saw, or maybe a family story? Maybe your main character is just stuck reading a terrible book or the guy making the coffee is talking about the creepy history of town to someone at another table?
Make it work for you.
1-25 ; as many or as few as you want!

cleaning out some weekend prompts
Date: 2022-01-21 09:26 pm (UTC)Jack had said she was safe here. That she would not be alone.
She was certain there was no one else here now. The entire house embraced her with an aura of too many months, maybe years, of abandonment.
It was just as well.
When she opened her eyes again, the fleeting after-images of a night where she was lost in the woods…in the jungle…where both Carl and Ren refused to respond to her calls…stuck to her lids, she wondered where she was and how she had gotten there. Her head was on a pillow, she was covered with a heavy blanket that smelled of lavender soap and recent laundering and the word beyond the shuttered windows was brighter than it had been.
She also wondered, as she turned her head towards the sounds in the dimly lit kitchen, the room situated at an angle that prevented her from seeing into it, when she had ceased being alone.
“Breakfast?”
