La Llorona y Luna by Tammy Boehm
A phantom moon crested against the billowed clouds riding the wake of the storm’s ebbing rage. I crouched, shivering as the moon shed light but no warmth in my temporary shelter
The White Pumpkin by Grey Harlowe
“It’s October 30th,” warned Connor McCann. “Don’t go out alone tonight.”
