Today the house is gone. Only the doorframe remains, open to a place beyond. Those who watch have prepared for this. To enter is a risk, but to remain would also be dangerous now. And so they step through. #inktober2021 #inktober #risk #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today the house is surrounded by flames that do not touch it. Those who watch do so from a distance, overwhelmed by heat and smoke. The fire rages against their observing, seeing, knowing. Preparations are being made. #inktober2021 #inktober #crispy #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today something red is splattered all over the house. Those who watch can taste the tang of iron in the air. A battle was fought here. Those who watch take more samples, seeking to discover what side the loser was on. #inktober2021 #inktober #splat #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today the house is a ruin. It seems, at first, that nature has reclaimed it. As those who watch look more closely they realise everything is dead and rotting. All life in and around the house is extinct. #inktober2021 #inktober #extinct #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today all the windows in the house are open. Fine webs can bee seen at every one. Those who watch check carefully to confirm there are exactly four spiders in each window. This is a warning. Death seeks to entrap them. #inktober2021 #inktober #open #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today there is a cat outside the house. Its fur is a void but for three glittering eyes. It appears unaware of those who watch, chasing butterflies and laying in the sun, but when it sleeps the third eye remains open. #inktober2021 #inktober #fuzzy #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today enormous mushrooms have sprouted in a ring around they house. Fine golden spores rain gently down from them. Those who watch find themselves gently drifting on glittering clouds, content, serene. They flee. #inktober2021 #inktober #sprout #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today there are enormous hoops floating in front of the house. Outside their scope, all is shrouded in darkness; inside them, bathed in sunlight. Those who watch peer at the overlap, where something other can be observed. #inktober2021 #inktober #loop #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today the moon hangs enormous in the sky behind the house. It remains there all day, haloed by sparkling stars embedded in inky black. Those who watch are vigilant, aware of the strength darkness brings to their enemy. #inktober2021 #inktober #moon #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today something has collided with the house. A sphere that radiates heat and power. The world around it is unconcerned, with only those who watch to witness. The media, the emergency services, the neighbours, are blind. #inktober2021 #inktober #collide #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today there is a helmet, of sorts, staked in front of the house. Those who watch do not understand its significance. They text photos to the office and are met with silence. They feel a loss, utterly inexplicable. #inktober2021 #inktober #helmet #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today there is a clock on the house. It is a living thing. Time itself reaching out, waving in the breeze, curling and contracting and entangling. When those who watch leave, they find three days have passed. #inktober2021 #inktober #tick #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today there is something on the roof of the house. Something that should not be seen or seeable by anyone not resident in the house. Those who watch are uncertain. Has the something escaped or has it been unleashed? #inktober2021 #inktober #roof #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today there is a scarecrow on the lawn of the house. The ravens are unafraid. The roses have returned to climb it. No one comes to pick them. Those who watch pose next to it for photos, smiles broad and a little smug. #inktober2021 #inktober #stuck #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today the house is covered in roses. All day, people visit, picking a single bloom. Each person bows to the house before leaving, as if in thanks. Those who watch photograph every visitor, until all the flowers are gone. #inktober2021 #inktober #pick #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today the house has eyes. It watches those who watch. Its gaze is uncomfortable, accusing, knowing. The eyes blink slowly in concert, shifting together to follow any movement. Those who watch endeavour to remain still. #inktober2021 #inktober #watch #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today a visitor approaches those who watch. She shuffles her cards, then draws three. She tucks them under the wiper in a fan shape, smiling. Those who watch wait for her to leave before they look to see what was drawn. #inktober2021 #inktober #fan #flashfiction #spookyseason
Today a young woman in a severe dress visits the house. Those who watch take photos as she glides through the door. When they return to their office the photos are empty, but a painting of the woman sits on the wall. #inktober2021 #inktober #spirit #flashfiction #spookyseason
