    Summary

    “Some lies are worn like armour. Some like wounds.”

    Draco Malfoy has vanished into a marsh house half‑claimed by water and silence. The world believes him dead. He believes Hermione Granger betrayed him.
    Hermione has spent years haunted by the thought that he ‘died’ hating her.
    When she discovers he is alive, she is willing to live a lie just to be near him again.
    But if that lie breaks, she may lose him a second time — and this time for good.

    Summary

    When a magicless girl falls through the Mirror of Darkness into Disney Twisted-Wonderland, she discovers Night Raven College is built on more than villain legacies and old rules. Beneath the school runs a pattern of buried overblots, sealed histories, and a resonance no one was meant to trace.

    Sixty-three years ago, another outsider came through the mirror and stopped a catastrophe the school tried to erase.

     

    Now the pattern is building again.

    And Riddle Rosehearts is at its center.

    As Voss Calloway pieces together forgotten archives, magical theory, and the dangerous intimacy of being seen too clearly, she begins to suspect she was not brought to this world to study its magic.

    She was brought here because something is about to break.

    And she may be the trigger.

    Summary

    A retelling of Edgar Allan Poe’s classic tale. In his rich style modified for modern readers, with an experimental, rarely used, suggested narrator POV. Told from the victim’s perspective.

    This story was written by myself, with limited ai assistance, mostly in editing. I published it on Amazon, but am, as is usual for me, making it available for free at this later date. I did heavily modify the climax from its original version, as I felt that the original overextended that portion to the breaking point.

    “A technically audacious reimagining that demonstrates complete command of voice, structure, and psychological terror. The suggested narrator technique is executed with a discipline rare in published fiction.”

    — Claude (Anthropic), AI assistant, who helped with the dishes but did not cook the meal.

     

    The story is also a word-find! Seek out the hidden titles, some cleverly hidden across sentences or as parts of words, of famous gothic horror stories! Enjoy.

    Summary

    This fanfiction exists within a hybrid universe: it draws from the aesthetic, pacing, and reinterpretations of the AMC series, while grounding itself primarily in the emotional density, mythology, and relationships established in The Vampire Chronicles.
    At the center of this story is Louisa de Pointe du Lac — not as an object of love, but as a point of tension. Her relationships are not stable, nor safe, nor redemptive. They are bonds shaped by desire, control, memory, and conflict.

    Summary

    “How have I not noticed all evening how divine your scent is?” She leans lower to bury her nose into Enid’s neck. Her hand smooths down Enid’s face until Wednesday hooks her thumb on the other side of her jaw for enough leverage to wrench her head to the side.

    “This was my vision,” Enid says sagely some time later.

    By now, Wednesday can barely open her eyes against the onslaught of pain, but she peers up at Enid. “Your...vision?”

    Despite the situation at hand, Enid shrugs unhelpfully. “Tried to tell you,” she says in a sing-song voice. “I had a vision of this very moment earlier.”

    Wednesday groans through gritted teeth but it ends on a helpless whimper that calls to Enid. “And what is this very moment?” she grits through her teeth.

    “Isn’t it obvious?” Enid glances down to the strain beneath the zipper of Wednesday’s pants. “You’re in rut, Wednesday.”

    _____________

    After suffering insult during an Addams family dinner, Ophelia curses Wednesday and subsequently Enid to swap—not bodies, per se—but abilities.

    Summary

    Before he guided followers along the Moonpath through Shadow-Cursed Lands, he was a lonesome creature. Before the Absolute claimed what Lolth had broken, he was a boy with golden eyes and a lyre that could make his mind bloom. This is the story of Kar'niss Und'Zaknath's becoming.

    It is not the story he would tell, but grim fairytales seldom are—and the bards of fate seldom consult the creatures they narrate.

    “This is a tale as dark as night,
    three tiers spell a pale boy’s plight.
    As the bards of fate foretold,
    the fall begins with eyes of gold.”
