They were never 'men',
They learned our speech, our habits, our flaws,
All the better... to consume.

Prompt # 1974: lancet

She was finally able to put her degree to good use. The cure to the zombie virus was inside the first turned. Making an arch-shaped cut around their heart with the surgical knife. She pulled on a pair of gloves, sticking her hand inside.

Prompt # 1542: craving

IIt was the taste,
the warmth of blood,
of flesh made,
that made
that made them want more.

“We’ll begin peace talks when my son arrives. Shouldn’t be long.”
A #deluxe #hearth in the affluent chamber roared and sizzled from the spitted meat as the king’s #lancet removed and offered a beautiful hunk. “While we wait.”
“Delicious, this, what is it?”
“Your son.”

After the Ki11

he left his notebook
open to the blankest page
the #lancet dripped blood
#Lycanthrope; could have eaten
—time pressed into regret.

Not on the edge of a knife.
It's the edge of a deluxe lancet;
the monsters make sure people
have their aphrodisiacs,
would have you make little else
of tomorrow (illusion of grandeur
is like real grandeur) and its pleasure
of seeing yourself in repeat

#horrorprompt 1971 Incarnate

They said he was evil incarnate, and he laughed at that.

But as he walked, he could scratch at his arm, leaving scales of skin to fall to the floor, which would leap up upon the next person, who would suddenly have a desire

to lie
to steal
to cheat
to rape
to kill

#horrorprompt 1973 Werewolf

All her life, Marissa had been told that she had eyes that could tame the meanest of creatures, and she believed it.

She thought she could tame the werewolf, as well.

But all the werewolf could see was blood
as he chewed out those eyes

along with half her face

Their hand does not shake,
But the small wound's enough to drain,
The last of their strength.
