  2. The soft, powdery snow fell silently outside, blanketing the quiet town in a serene white hush as the scent of pine and cinnamon drifted from every warm window. Inside the cozy living room, twelve-year-old Lily held a chipped porcelain ornament, her eyes reflecting the twinkling lights of the magnificent Christmas tree, each flicker a memory of the previous year, reminding her that the true magic of Christmas lay not in the gifts beneath the branches, but in the shared laughter and quiet, enduring love that wrapped her family together like a perfectly tied red bow. stake: FelixOtello

  9. stake: FelixOtello enjoyed the story! The last ferry from Circular Quay had left hours ago, and the Sydney Harbour fog pressed against the windows of the old ferryman’s cottage like a living thing. You were thirty-four, mate, and you’d come back to Australia after ten years in London, chasing the ghost of a life you’d left behind. The inheritance was supposed to be simple: a crumbling weatherboard on the Hawkesbury River, a tinny with a busted outboard, and a box of your uncle’s things. You’d planned to sell it all, pocket the cash, and piss off to Bali before the taxman noticed.But the river had other ideas.You found the box in the crawlspace under the house, wedged between termite-chewed beams and a rusted esky. Inside: a Polaroid of you at six, gap-toothed and sunburnt, holding a barramundi twice your size; a cassette tape labeled “DO NOT PLAY” in your uncle’s spidery hand; and a single object wrapped in oilskin. You unwrapped it under the single bulb, and the air turned cold enough to frost your breath.It was a boomerang. Not the tourist-shop kind. This one was old, carved from ironbark so dark it drank the light. The grain swirled like smoke, and along the curve someone had burned a pattern: tiny stick figures running, mouths open in silent screams. You turned it over. On the back, in the same hand as the tape: “It always comes back. Don’t throw it after dark.”You laughed. You were thirty-four, not six. You’d seen worse than ghost stories in the London Underground at 3 a.m. You took the boomerang and the tape out to the verandah, the river lapping black and slow below. The cassette player was older than you, but it whirred to life with a sound like a dying cockatoo. Your uncle’s voice crackled through: “If you’re hearing this, I’m gone. The thing in the mangroves took me. It’s been waiting since ’89. You remember the storm? The one that tore the roof off the shed? That’s when it started. I threw the boomerang to scare off the dingoes. It came back wrong. Carried something with it. Something that wears faces.” Static. Then a whisper, not your uncle’s: “Throw it again, mate. See what comes home.”You should’ve burned the tape. Should’ve driven to Sydney and never looked back. But the river was in your blood, and the boomerang was warm in your hand, pulsing like a heartbeat. You were thirty-four, and you’d spent a decade running from the kid who believed in bunyips and drop bears. Time to prove you were bigger than that.You walked down to the water’s edge. The mangroves leaned over the bank like old men, roots clawing into the mud. The moon was a slit of bone. You drew back your arm (muscle memory from a thousand childhood throws) and let it fly.It cut the air with a sound like tearing silk. It vanished into the dark.You waited. Nothing. Just the lap of the river and the distant croak of a frog. You laughed, shaky, and turned to go.Then you heard it. A whump-whump-whump, low and wet, coming from the mangroves. Not the boomerang’s clean arc. This was heavier. Slap of wood on water. Slap of something else.The boomerang burst from the trees, spinning slow, dripping. It landed at your feet with a sound like a body hitting mud. But it wasn’t alone.Clinging to it was a hand. Grey-green, webbed between the fingers, nails black and split. It flexed once, then let go. The boomerang rolled to a stop. The hand crawled toward you on its knuckles, leaving a trail of river slime and something darker.You ran. Up the bank, boots slipping in mud, heart hammering like a V8. Behind you, the mangroves moved. Branches cracked. Something big splashed into the water, following. You reached the house, slammed the door, and wedged a chair under the handle. The cassette player was still on the table, tape spinning. Your uncle’s voice, looped: “It wears faces. Whatever you love most, that’s what it’ll be.” You looked out the window. The thing stood on the lawn, moonlight glinting off wet skin. It was tall, hunched, with too many joints. And its face— It was yours. But wrong. The eyes were black glass, reflecting the river. The mouth stretched too wide, showing teeth like river stones. It raised the boomerang, mimicking your throw from earlier. Then it smiled your smile, the one you used in London bars to charm free drinks.It threw.The boomerang smashed through the window, glass exploding inward. You dove aside as it buried itself in the wall, quivering. The thing outside laughed—your laugh, but hollow, like it was coming from underwater.You grabbed the oilskin from the box. Inside was a second object: a jar of salt, coarse and grey, labeled in your uncle’s hand: “River won’t cross it. Fire neither.” You didn’t think. You ripped the lid off and poured a circle around yourself on the floorboards. The salt hissed where it touched the wood, smoking like dry ice.The door buckled. The thing pressed its face—your face—against the glass, breath fogging it in ragged bursts. It whispered, in your voice: “C’mon, mate. Just one throw. For old times.” You were thirty-four, and you’d never believed in anything. But the salt held. The thing paced, boomerang dragging behind it like a tail. Dawn was hours away. The river kept lapping, patient.You sat in the circle, knees to chest, and waited for the sun to burn the fog away. The boomerang hummed on the wall, eager. Outside, the thing sang your childhood songs, off-key, in a voice that cracked like mangroves in a storm.When the first light finally bled across the water, the thing was gone. The boomerang lay cold and silent. But the salt circle was broken in one place—a single footprint, webbed and clawed, leading toward the river.You’re thirty-four, mate. And the river’s still hungry.
  10. FelixOtello Jack O’Lantern rose The wind howled through the hollowed-out streets of Blackthorn Hollow, rattling the shutters of abandoned houses and scattering brittle leaves like the bones of forgotten summers. On All Hallows’ Eve, when the veil between worlds thinned to a whisper, Jack O’Lantern rose from the pumpkin patch behind the old mill.He had not always been this way. Once, he was merely Elias Crowe, a tailor with nimble fingers and a sharper tongue, known for stitching suits so fine they could make a pauper look like a prince. But pride had been his undoing. On a dare, he’d mocked the Harvest Witch, carving her likeness into a pumpkin and setting it ablaze with a sneer. The flames had twisted, the smoke had coiled, and when the fire died, the pumpkin grinned back at him—with his own face.Now, every Halloween, Elias wore the curse like a second skin. His head was the jack-o’-lantern, hollowed and glowing with a sickly orange light that pulsed like a dying heart. His body, stitched together from the scraps of his old suits, moved with the jerky grace of a marionette. The claws (once his sewing needles, now elongated and rusted) clicked against the cobblestones as he prowled.The town had learned to bar its doors when the first frost kissed the pumpkins. Children whispered of the Tailor of Terror, the one who could unpick your soul with a snip of his shears. But this year, something was different. The bats that usually wheeled overhead in frantic spirals now flew in perfect formation, like stitches in the sky. The leaves didn’t just fall—they arranged themselves, forming arrows that pointed toward the churchyard.Jack paused at the iron gate, his carved mouth splitting wider. Inside the graveyard, a single candle flickered in the window of the old parsonage. A girl stood there, no older than twelve, her face pressed to the glass. She held a pumpkin of her own—small, uncarved, and glowing faintly from within.She was waiting.Jack’s claws flexed. The curse demanded a new vessel every century, a fresh face to wear the pumpkin mask. The girl’s light was bright, untainted. Perfect.But as he stepped over the threshold, the ground shuddered. The gravestones cracked. From the earth rose the Harvest Witch herself, her cloak woven from corn husks and shadow, her eyes twin embers. She had come to collect what was hers.“You’ve had your fun, Elias,” she rasped, voice like dry leaves crushed underfoot. “But the patch needs tending. And you’ve grown rotten.”Jack’s flame guttered. For the first time in a hundred years, fear flickered behind his carved eyes. The girl in the window smiled—not with innocence, but with the grim satisfaction of a gardener pruning a weed.The bats dove. The leaves swirled into a cyclone. And Jack O’Lantern, the Tailor of Terror, was pulled back into the earth, stitch by stitch, until only the pumpkin remained—grinning, hollow, and waiting for the next fool to light its wick.In the morning, the girl carved her pumpkin with careful, deliberate strokes. When she set it on the porch and lit the candle inside, the face that stared back was not her own.But it smiled all the same.
