Mourgana's Crypt

@mvrosecrypt / mvrosecrypt.tumblr.com

Welcome to my old haunt. Whether you come as a lover or an executioner, I am ready to receive you.

aaaaaaaAAAaaAAAAAAaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAaa!!!!

A good scream really lifts the spirits after a nice, long doze. Too long, I’m afraid. I can’t seem to remember when or where I am. I was nailed shut inside my coffin- packed in tight, to make it comfortable- and then...you there! Yes, could you please tell me, what is the year? Oh, that explains it. I’ve been dead for centuries!

I couldn’t sleep with all the noise around me. Noisy neighbors are everywhere- in this world and the next. You and I, however, I think we can be friends.

My name is Mourgana. I’m a storyteller by trade. I and my earthworm companion, Victor, collect them to share with the rest of the plot, as well as any lost souls and weary travelers. Stories help to pass the time, but it’s better in groups. Before you settle in to read, might I suggest inviting the creature who lives under the bed? Or the faceless man who waits for you to turn the lights out? It’s hard for him to read over your shoulder.

This plot of the web is a new development. While I stretch my wings, you can find me here where the headstone reads “Mourgana’s Crypt”. In some months- on a Friday the 13th- I will share my stories on a site of my own making. Reading is a human experience- one that shouldn’t cost an arm or a leg. No spending is required to read my stories. Time is my fee; giving me your time keeps the reaper at bay just a little longer. So please, step lightly. You don’t want to trample over anything under the floorboards. Don’t forget your manners: comb your fur, brush your fangs, and sharpen your claws. With that, I invite you to grab a shovel, and dig in.

The Harvestmen / Short Horror Story

"My time will pass quickly; I have made peace with it. This is the way. But before death comes, there is something I must know."

"Does my life matter?" It's a question I've heard many times in my little plot in the back of the cemetery. Visitors come and go, often wondering whether they are as insignificant as the insects beneath their feet. I don't have an answer- only a story, something a man in passing told Victor and I one quiet night, when the graves were open and time was still as death. I have since taken it under my wing and dusted off the cobwebs, so that I may share with you. The old lady in the plot next to mine rolled in her grave when she first heard it. The gentlemen next to her still isn't speaking to me.

This story will appear in snippets throughout this blog, and will be posted in full on my website once it's up and running. As with all the stories going on the site, it will be free to read- as for your sanity, I can't say what the cost will be.

Have another snippet, as a treat

"This is the darkest, creepiest thing I have ever read."
"So I just read your short story...creeped me the hell out."
"I wish you could have seen my reaction to some parts. I was like 'what is happening??'"
