A very creepy story indeed. Something about the combination of the mental issues and the supernatural experience heightens the horror of the whole thing.

I have some suggestions for you:

this time was the last drop.
(Possibly: this time was the last straw.)

Her clothes, if you can call it that,
(...if you can call them that)

When I was little a daying dog had
(When I was little, a dying dog...)

After, that I passed out.
(After that, I passed out.)

happy to realize she had a horrible nightmare.
(...she had been a horrible nightmare OR
....I had a horrible nightmare)

A great entry for the club and contest. Well done!
Julie

Oy vey!! How can the most artistic and beauty-centric poet on this site turn around and write this EPIC horror story??? Well, I guess the answer is: Because she's good at every last facet of writing; that's why!!

This was chilling and so REAL and terrifying! This is nothing short of brilliant, Gypsy! You are GOING to win this Horror Writing Contest. There is not one scintilla of doubt in my mind!



One teeny spag: I felt relieved and almost happy to realize she had [BEEN] a horrible nightmare.

Good luck in the polls - NOT that you need it!!
