Horror enthusiasts of Substack, I’m proud to present in collaboration with the fantastic Labyrinthia Mythweaver and Mathew C. Bryant • Horror Poet the inaugural edition of the Sunday Scaries! Each Sunday we’ll be offering up a terrifying trio of prompts to inspire your eldritch imaginations. At the end of the month we will perform a live read of some of our favorite offerings.

This week’s trio of prompts are:

Haiku: Her spirit remains /Where tar melted hair and flesh /Lusting for lost souls

Starter sentence: Bearing the marks of neither God nor man, it kept its primeval vigil.

Visual prompt is below

Feel free to tackle any or all of them as you like. I’ll tag a few horror fiends to get the ball rolling but it is open to all who’d like to participate!
