Ann WinsorGeorge WinsorSebastian Corday

In "The Thing in the Pool," a bitter architect named George Winsor, consumed by jealousy after losing his secretary Ann Winsor to the charming Sebastian Corday, lures the couple to a grand estate he’s built—complete with a deceptively serene swimming pool. What lies beneath the surface, however, is a monstrous secret from George’s past, a creature he once encountered in a remote watering hole and buried beneath the mansion’s foundation. As the pool’s dark waters begin to stir, the line between revenge and retribution blurs, and the true cost of obsession starts to rise.

The Hand of Jao Tze
8 pp · horror-suspense

In "The Hand of Jao Tze," a desperate sailor steals priceless jewels from a colossal statue of Jao Tze, murdering the temple’s ancient guardian in the process. Haunted by his crime and hunted by ruthless thieves who sever his fingers one by one, he’s driven back to the very temple he betrayed—where fate demands a new kind of sacrifice.

The Ripper's Return
4 pp · horror-suspense

In a secluded 1952 sanatorium, a mad doctor pushes the boundaries of science by transferring the consciousness of dead legends—Napoleon Bonaparte and Confucius—into living minds.

The Man Who Bought the Earth!
0.5 pp · non-fiction; history
Didius JulianusSeptimius Severus (misspelled as Septimus Severus)

In 193 A.D., the Roman Empire’s fate is decided not by battle or legacy, but by auction—Didius Julianus outbids all rivals to buy the throne, only to face the wrath of Septimius Severus, whose rise begins with a march on Rome.

Love from a Plant
8 pp · horror-suspense

In "Love from a Plant," a meek horticulturist, tormented by his domineering wife, discovers a strange spray that gives sentience to a vine—capable of feeling both love and hate. When he uses it to make the vine turn against her, she meets a grim end in the greenhouse. Left alone, he tries to reawaken the vine’s affection, only to find that its embrace, once a symbol of love, proves deadly.
