When Good Luck Turns Bad
It was the lottery ticket's fault. At least that’s what he kept telling himself. If Cory hadn’t won the third-place prize, he never would have been in this situation. Winning a million dollars wasn’t a bad thing; it gave him the opportunity to fulfill his childhood dream of reaching the top of the world’s tallest buildings. Cory spent days researching, selecting which buildings made his list, and obtaining the necessary travel visas. He booked his flights, train tickets, accommodations, and he was ready to go.

Eight Feet Tall: The Shadow in the White Dress
1. The Intruder in the Twilight Imagine the scene: you are in a quiet, rural Japanese countryside. The sun is dipping below the horizon, and the sky is turning a bruised, deep purple. Everything is peaceful. Then, you see her. Standing over the rice fields, taller than the power lines, stands a woman in a white sundress and a wide-brimmed straw hat. You think it’s a trick of the light. But then, you hear it. A guttural, rhythmic sound echoing across the valley: "Po... po... po... po..." This is Hachishakusama—or "Eight Feet Tall." In the digital age of urban legends, few entities command as much primal, visceral fear as this towering specter. She is not a jump-scare ghost; she is a slow, methodical predator who marks her prey long before she strikes.

Every morning she walked to school, every afternoon she worked at the small bookstore on Maple Street, and every evening she sat beside the fireplace reading novels.

No, The Mothman Isn’t an Alien
Commentary A Lot of Things to a Lot of People The legendary Mothman has been a lot of things to a lot of people. And, in many respects, his mostly complex and evolving legend as a mythological creature made him one of the most unique and fascinating beings of his kind. That is until somebody – possibly a blogger on a cryptid or paranormal site – began to speculate that the Mothman is actually an alien.
