Highest Rank: #223 in Mystery/Thriller

The Happy Happy Village, there is no such isolated village within the thick vegetation and swampland of the Florida wilderness quite like this one. It was a town where everyone worked as one, where everyone lived in plain simplicity, where everyone smiled proudly... and it's where I happened to find myself for a weekend. Of all places!

51 years ago I stumbled upon this village by following some dirt path on the highway, in hopes of finding some assistance after being left on the side of the road with a dead car. And I got more than I bargained for when I met the Happy Happiests  and their strong and love struck leader Ms. Mercedes. 

With the story you're about to read my dear reader, in this strange and ominous, happy, and smiley little town, lies a few dark secrets that I've unfortunately uncovered for myself and others. I wasn't meant to find them, but I guess that's all just a part of life now isn't it?All Rights Reserved

Lacy by EvaWerner22

standalone ~ mafia siblings series I stare at the elegant man. He smiles at me. I tilt my head to the side, hands clasped behind my back. "Good day," The man begins. "I am sorry for your loss."

When The Devil Comes by LaFayeJones

In a small yet sparsely populated town called, Summerville. Where the sun's ethereal radiance shining was always overhead and the soothing heat could be felt. As the rays of the sun danced upon, caressed and hugged one's skin with a warmth that was so divine. Somehow the skies always seemed to appear in such a way, that was magnificently vibrant. Yet it had managed to maintain a distinctive rosy look to it. It was as if it had conjoined as one with nature and it looked anything less than riveting to the eyes of the beholder. Now in a beautiful safe haven like Summerville, that had appeared so strategically and mysteriously hidden away to maintain an enigma . It was akin to that of a heavenly paradise that provided security, safety and some sense of sanity. While the atmosphere maintained a calm and welcoming ambience. It seemed as if the inhabitants had learned to coexist and gotten along with each other just fine. Yet somehow my mother and I had thought that this could be the place to create something new. It was as if we were given a second chance to start life over and right our transgressions and indiscretions. Moreover we had thought that this was the perfect sanctuary to hide... when the Devil comes. Anna Mariah Darkstar is my name, and Andrea Jones was my mother. The great evil, Samiel Darkstar was my father. He was the monster whose clutches we had barely escaped from.
