There's two types of people.

Excerpt from "The Antique Collector" , featured in "The Book of Apparitions" by Nick Adigu Burke - @ Amazon It wasn't long before the press wrote about a corpse snatcher, operating in and around London... Called me, The Antique Collector... Although my collection was without rival, it lacked sparkle. It didn't quite have that “Wow Factor”, didn't quite have that stand-out piece that you look for. But the heavens must've been smiling on me. Everything fell into place. One Sunday morning, whilst listening to the wireless, it came on the news that Celebrity gangster Terry “The Gun” Gunnarsson hadn't long to live. The reports mentioned that he'd been rushed to Charing Cross hospital. Adding the cancer would kill him within a week. Well, I couldn't miss an opportunity like that - the one and only Terry Gunnarsson. Like a few East-End villains he boxed as a youth. In 1952, he even got his hands on the famous Lonsdale belt - the one given to British boxing champions. However, spent three years at Her Majesty's pleasure, in Belmarsh, for that theft. His roguish ways and best selling books, had him cherished up and down the country. I couldn't miss adding that rough diamond to my collection. Before he died I went down Charing Cross. Paid him a visit. It's not like he wasn't going to die anyway, just gave him a little helping hand, that's all. It went like this - killed, I mean died, buried, dug-up and in my collection within a fortnight - WHAMMO!... #spookystories #darkhumour #shortstory #shortstorycollection #newbook #excerpt #horrorstory #funnystory #zombie #zombiestory #creativemind #creativewriting #thebookofapparitions #NickAdiguBurke #sharedstory #writer #writersofinstagram #fiction #humeroustory #paranormal #supernatural (at Manchester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq-TqrQspIN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Find the Word game

I got tagged by @elanorniennandil-me for this challenge. The rules are simple - find the word (or something close to it) in a fic/piece of writing (published or WIP) and share the excerpt it's in.

my words are: orange, death, cigarette, tear, mirror

Since I do most of my writing in German, the excerpts will be in German too. Sorry! 

I also won’t tag anyone for the simple reason that I don’t know any people on here. 

Enjoy!

Orange: Zombiestory 2

Auf der Bank gab es keinen Platz, an dem er seine Flügel unterbringen konnte, weshalb er sich nach einigem Zögern vorsichtig auf sie setzte. Sein Gesicht sah aus als wäre er gezwungen worden, nach dem Zähneputzen einen Kanister Orangensaft zu kippen.

Tod: Zombiestory 1

Der Vampir brachte sein Gesicht näher an mich heran, machte ein paar zögerliche Schritte nach vorn. An seinen unsicheren, tastenden Bewegungen erkannte ich, dass er nicht gut sehen konnte. Möglicherweise wusste er nicht einmal, dass jemand mit ihm in der Halle stand. Immer näher kam er mir, schnüffelte und schnaubte, stieß mir dabei seinen fauligen Atem entgegen. Ein Duft in der wundervollen Sorte ›Aas & Tod‹, wie harmonisch. Er konnte beinahe mit mir mithalten. 

Zigarette: Zombiestory 2 (cn smoking, obviously)

»Eigentlich dürfte ich das nicht tun. Ich hoffe, du weißt es zu schätzen.« Zum Vorschein kamen ein, mein, Päckchen Zigaretten und mein Feuerzeug. Mit großen Augen beobachtete ich, wie er eine hervorholte und mir hinhielt. Ich lehnte mich vor und klemmte sie zwischen meine Lippen, dann gab er mir Feuer und ich lehnte mich zufrieden auf dem Sitz zurück. Das hatte ich gebraucht. Keine Freiheit, keine Erlösung. Einfach nur eine Kippe und die Ruhe des leise pfeifenden Windes, der durch das Blattwerk streifte. 

Träne: Benjamin’s Wagon 3 - Goldener Schnitt

Und doch, als er diesem Leben endlich gegenüberstand, hauchte er seines kurze Zeit später aus. Gold hätte geweint, hätte er es gekonnt. Tränen und Tränen an öligen blauen Tränen hatte er geformt, aber es hatte sich nicht so befreiend angefühlt, wie es bei Menschen aussah. 

Spiegel: Zombiestory 1

Schon nach etwa fünf Minuten langweiligen Herumstehens vor dem Spiegel und Anstarrens mehrerer Bonbons schoben sich kleine, weiße Fingerspitzen aus dem Spiegel und wollten nach einem der am Boden liegenden Bonbons greifen. Zu Romeros Vorteil hatte das Wesen jedoch nicht damit gerechnet, wie schnell er sein konnte. Sein Arm schnellte nach vorne wie eine Peitsche und umfasste die Hand des Spiegelspringers in seinem ungeschützten Zustand. »Hab ich dich.«

Das Geschöpf wurde von Romero aus dem Spiegel gezogen und landete in dem Haufen von Bonbons. Verwirrt blickte es auf. »Das war eine Falle, oder?«

»Das merkst du aber früh.«

synopsis

Asena Spiros grew up learning about emotions through books. When she acts on impulse for the third time in her life, she is left with a searing burn on her arm and an indefinite diagnosis of slow death caused by the infection of the newly discovered disease called Mortnam. Curiosity being her main driving force, she sets out to assist the Echerus Empire in finding a cure to the ever growing epidemic sweeping the continent that’s turning its citizens into the undead. But some curiosities are not always meant to be pursued.

EPISODE 3

"Wow, you're quick," she says. "Some people aren't as quick as you are, so I'm impressed". She removes the knife from Moose's throat and puts it back into her holster. Behind her are two men, a tall pot-bellied man and a shorter one. She looks at the cereal bar on the table and then back at Moose. "Is that all you've eaten?". Moose confirms. "Joe, open your bag" as she walks over to the taller man. She grabs the bag, reaches inside and pulls out a bag of white rice and some dried beans. "How did you get this?" Moose asked. "We stumbled on a camp a few days ago. Nobody was there, but there was lots of blood, so I didn't think they'd need the food any more. There wasn't much, just enough to last us three about two weeks," she says as she hands over a bottle of water. "Joe, Sam, stay here. I'm gonna help this guy out". Moose and Jen then start heading towards McDonald's to find a pot to boil the rice. Moose is having suspicions about her. There's no way she's doing this out of kindness. "Why are you doing this? Helping me?" He asks. "Why? Do you want me to stop?" Moose purses his lips together whilst his eyes look away from her. "A few years ago, I saw a guy on the road. I refused to help him, and later on that day, I got into trouble. I shouted for help, and the same guy came running over, saw it was me, then left. That's when I met Joe and Sam".

"Do you trust him?" Joe says to Sam as he sits down on the canteen table. Sam shrugs. "It'd be a lot better if you were able to speak, little brother". Joe rubs Sam's hair and pushes his head away playfully. "I'm hoping we don't stay here long; large public buildings are always the worst". Sam nods. "I'll tell Jen when she gets back from McDonald's".

A scream. An ear-piercing scream. Joe and Sam's complexion gets paler by the second. Their hairs on the back of their necks have stood up like a porcupine when it's threatened. It's an echo. Both Sam and Joe drop to the floor silently; Joe looks at Sam and signals for him to follow. They both follow along the walls towards McDonald's, making sure to stay low. Joe peeks his head around the corner and sees McDonald's. The echo is jittering in front of the place, sniffing the air and groaning. "Fuck", Joe whispers, "It's right outside it". Joe peeks around the corner again, only this time, he sees Moose and Jen. The echo has its back to them and is slowly walking away. Joe looks around for anything he can throw to lead the echo away from them. He sees a stick on the floor, picks it up, and looks for somewhere to throw it. Sam points at a small billboard not far in front of the echo and signals Joe to throw it. It hits the billboard, and the echo lets out another ear-piercing scream before it hurtles through the tables to the billboard and starts to sniff. Moose and Jen silently rush towards Joe and Sam before stopping halfway. Moose points behind Joe and reveals another echo, facing towards the window. Jen waves them over, and they head into a staff corridor. They can see some light peeking through one of the doors, so they head towards it.

Sam speeds up and overtakes the others. He slams the door open and runs straight into an echo. The echo screams and jumps on top of Sam, trying to scratch him and bite him. The other three can't see what the echo is doing, just that it's on top of him. Joe speeds up and pulls out his knife. Sam is crying whilst trying to hold the echo in the air, his arms getting weaker by the seconds. Joe reaches Sam, pushes his knife into the echo's head, and watches it slump away from Sam. "Are you alright?" He asks as he helps Sam up. Sam nods. Jen and Moose finally reach them and make sure that Sam is OK. "Idiot," Jen says, "why would you just run out? You're supposed to check it's safe first! You could've died!" Sam looks at the floor, ashamed that he let fear get the better of him. "Jen, we have to go. Those screams are probably going to draw more of them". She nods. The four of them head towards the bushes with Sam trailing behind. "One day, I'm going to kill him myself," Jen whispers to Moose. "If he doesn't stop and think, he's going to die". Sam hears and looks down in shame. He notices something on his hand - blood. He pulls back his sleeve to see where the blood is coming from, a bite.

Ghost Zombie: Part Eight

In this 8th instalment of 'Ghost Zombie' the Body goes tree tasting. This is the story of Alex, a guy who dies from a zombie bite, but whose spirit has separation issues.

Tasting Trees Alex closed his eyes and tried to will himself into the afterlife. He didn’t care anymore if he was going to heaven or hell or limbo or getting reincarnated – he just wanted to get as far away from this disgusting mess as possible. But no matter how hard he concentrated, the light wasn’t coming for him. He was stuck. The body had picked up the rock again and struggled to its feet.…

Zombie Story - Scene 1

First scene of Zombie Story \o/

A little disclaimer as some people asked me if this was going to be a comic, the answer is no sorry ! Basically it's as if I just saw a movie and I was drawing the best scenes from it to share with you :3

Movie opens on Rick who was looking for supplies and stumbled upon a piano in a house so decided to play a little music. Issé is unresponsive so Rick jokes that his music was bad even though it wasn't.

First : You're here

Next : Scene 2

review - dawn of the living impaired

3.5/5 Stars Pub Date: Aug 1, 2019 2021 Goodreads Goal: 39/150

In my early 20s I consumed a lot of zombie media. So it has been a number of years since I last dipped into reading anything with a zombie storyline.

If I'm being honest, zombie's just feel a little overdone, we've had a decade of them being the ghoulie of choice on television, and it felt like there wasn't much left to explore.

Which was why I was surprised by how deftly Christine Morgan was able to "inject life" into a "dead genre," adding some much needed levity and diversity to a tired corner of horror.

Not every story was a hit for me, and my infamous issue with short stories came up (why so short!) but I was blown away by the range.

Highlights for me were: "The Barrow Maid" (Viking Revenge), "Family Life" (like if Parents was about zombies instead of cannibals), and "Good Boy" (NO YOU'RE CRYING). All bangers.

I'd love to see stories like "Be Brave" or "A Tower to the Sky" adapted into a longer format.

Can someone tell me what movie "Seven Brains, Ten Minutes" reminded me of?

Thanks again to @mother.horror for hosting another sick read-a-long.

Day sixteen of #ausyaoct20 is featuring bi, trans, genderfluid, aro &/or ace characters. I have a story about Highway Bodies (which is an excellent zombie book). I thought my beloved @babyearlgrey would enjoy it as well and when they came to visit last year I enthusiastically told them to read it. I was correct and as soon as they had finished they gave it to their friend and went home to Melbourne. Almost a year later and where is my book? Hopefully at least being enjoyed by someone 😒 📚 Image Description: cover image of Highway Bodies by Alison Evans on a photo of a wooden table. 📚 #bookstagram #australiareads #ausyabloggers #loveozya #zombiestories https://www.instagram.com/p/CGZDJOrg2eE/?igshid=1ohwx69dqyv6z
