[Formerly Featured/Award-Winning Novella/#2 in Horror]

There is something eerie about this village -- this hole of silent, maddened people.
  
  In 1922 my Papa told me of a faceless entity that lurks amongst us in our isolated slice of Russia. The locals have kept this horror alive for a century, though the only ones who claim to have seen the Folveshch have succumbed to a life of sightless silence. 
  
  My name is Stefan Alyovich and the people around me are changing. They slip into worsening madness every winter, and I ask myself: how much longer before I'm the only sane one left?
  
  ... The only one left alone with the Folveshch.

Awakening in Stone by _Bajun_
7 parts Ongoing Mature
"Oh? So, you found this book? And you dared to open it? How... unexpected. Most pass it by, too afraid of the weight of its whispers. But you? You have courage, or perhaps you simply don't know better. Either way, I'll let you in on a secret: this is no ordinary tale. It's a story I've told only in hushed tones, late at night when even the shadows are too scared to linger. Let me introduce myself. I am Bajun, the teller of tales, a seeker of truths hidden in darkness. They say cats have nine lives, but I've spent mine collecting the stories no one else dares to share. And this one? This is Awakening in Stone, a tale as cold and unyielding as the rock that once imprisoned its hero. The boy's name is Marek. Sixteen in body, one hundred in years. A vampire, born of blood and betrayal. For decades, he lay forgotten, turned to stone and abandoned in a cavern deep beneath the earth. Until, by chance-or perhaps by fate-blood spilled upon his prison and set him free. Weak, pale, and utterly lost, Marek is no monster of legend. He is but a frightened boy in a world that has grown crueler in his absence. Set in the mist-shrouded forests of medieval Poland, this tale weaves a tapestry of horrors-some born of human cruelty, others of ancient, unspeakable forces. Marek must navigate a labyrinth of myths and monsters, uncovering truths about himself and the cursed world he now inhabits. And you, brave reader, have chosen to step into this world with him. I must warn you: once you begin, you may find it difficult to leave. This is, after all, a short story. Or so I've planned. But life-and stories-have a peculiar way of defying plans, don't they? Nothing, as Marek would tell you, is truly set in stone. So, who knows where this tale will lead? The only way to find out is to read on."

The Forgotten Trails

16 parts Ongoing

The Forgotten Trail Mountains have always been steeped in legend-whispers of cursed paths, vanishing travelers, and a presence lurking beneath the snow. No one has ever uncovered the truth, yet the stories persist, passed down like a warning too many have ignored. One fateful winter, nineteen strangers find themselves seeking refuge in the isolated Forgotten Trail Lodge, forced together by an unexpected blizzard. As the storm rages on, cutting them off from the outside world, something else begins to unravel. Hunger gnaws at their sanity. The howling wind outside begins to sound less like wind and more like voices. Paranoia festers, turning them against one another. Is it isolation fraying their minds? The primal terror of starvation? Or is it something far older, something woven into the very bones of the mountain-watching, waiting, calling? As the days stretch on and reality begins to twist, one question remains: will any of them escape the Forgotten Trail Lodge? Or will they, like so many before them, become just another story-one never meant to be told?
