Summary
He held his gun more firmly, pointing in between the crimson eyes.
“It only takes one bullet.” He muttered, guts heating in anger at the amused look from the man some steps away in front of him.
“You ain’t got the nerve.” He hissed, like a snake, a mix between a sneer and a smile forming on his lips.
The soft click of the revolver’s safety unlocking was louder than usual against Harry’s ears, even louder than his pounding heart.
“Try me.”
(Yes, this is based on that Rango scene.)

Summary
It’s the same dream every night. A lightning-struck tower. A fallen figure. Harry Potter dreams in green and black and wakes up with blood on his pillow and a lingering sense that he is forgetting something important.
Trapped in Grimmauld Place, with no contact from the outside world, his only companion is the horcrux Tom Riddle, who has taken on a body of his own. But as Harry’s memories come together, the events of the past only become more muddled. And what’s more dangerous, the war raging outside, or the house, and the festering sense of unease that grows by the day?

Summary
The turn of the nineteenth century is rolling around, and Waylon is a rich farmer living near the forest on the outskirts of a small town with his sick wife. She succumbs to her illness one humid September morning, and Waylon’s mourning has him desperate enough to perform an ancient ritual to resurrect her.
The ritual takes six days to complete, and he doesn’t know what he revives --if he even revives anything-- but whatever thing that begins to haunt his house is not his wife.
or Waylon accidentally invites the ghost of the serial killer, Edward Gluskin, into his house and doesn’t hate it as much as he should.

Summary
John took it as such; the world could die, the sun falling on it. Humanity’s yoke, as he knew it, could end and they’d still have been as alone as they were now, here, in the confined space of this car. Ryder preferred it this way, as it catered to his plans. For ages, centuries even, these plans had been altered by nothing but his needs mostly venturing into realms of trickery, schemes, bloodshed and, now, carnal exaggeration.
His appetite to kill had not famished but thinned out in favor of another kind of hunger.
