Intrusion

Posted on November 10, 2014 by Philip

I was writing a scary story to post for Halloween, and I completely dropped the ball on finishing it up in time.  I’m still working on it, but in the meantime, here’s another of my very rare poems. — It’s quiet in this room As the world lies asleep And I sit here awake But…

Terry Hall

Posted on June 10, 2014 by Philip

Have you ever seen something that wasn’t really there?  Had an experience that you could only reconcile with one other person in the world, and for which everyone else would call you crazy?   In college, I was part of a volunteer group that went around the dorms passing out pamphlets about how detrimental prescription drug abuse could…

Are you afraid of the dark?

Posted on March 28, 2014 by Philip

There’s a light on down the hallway, Piercing through the dark, Its yellow glow creeps in my doorway, Causing my thoughts to stop. You see, a light would be so comforting, Since I’m home alone, But only if the power had not been out, From the frightful passing storm.

Some amount of time ago, I received a text message on my phone from a number I didn’t recognize that plainly said “where are you.” I replied, asking “who is this?” but received no answer. A week later, the same number texted me again with the same message asking where I was. Confused, I texted…

Tracks

Posted on November 4, 2012 by Philip

At 14 years old, there wasn’t a lot for my friends and I to do that didn’t involve the woods near our neighborhood. We were too young to drive, and yet we felt too old to be restricted to playing sports in our parents’ yards. The woods were basically the perfect place for us to…

The Hallway

Posted on September 9, 2012 by Philip

When I moved into my first rental house, I remember the feeling of being terrified at every strange noise that found its way to my ears. The ice maker in the freezer, the A/C kicking on, the house settling – it all made me nervous the first night I slept there. I was expecting it…

Sarah, Part 2

Posted on February 7, 2012 by Philip

“When we were 12, I made a friend named Beth.” “I don’t remember anyone named Beth.” She ignored me and continued.  “Beth was 4 years older than me.  She was tall, slender, straight brown hair, sparkling hazel eyes – everything I wanted to be when I became her age.  She treated me as if was…

Sarah, Part 1

Posted on February 6, 2012 by Philip

When I was a child of about 10 years, I had a friend named Sarah that would tell me scary stories.  Back then, they were obviously fabricated tales of ghosts, zombies, swamp monsters – basically the most stereotypical things that a 10 year old could make up on the spot.  She very rarely legitimately scared…
