"You have to poke holes in the lid so they can breathe." The people watch in horror as new stars appear in the night sky.

The two mirrors in my bathroom face each other, creating an infinite row of mirrors when you look in. I recently noticed a dark figure lurking in one of the distant mirrors, and my blood ran cold when I realized that it has been getting closer every time I look at my reflection.

The massive and expressionless humanoid being nearly filled the night sky as it appeared to be walking towards Earth. Scientists estimated it was still 40 million light years away.

“Biblically-accurate angels,” explained the doctor as I lay strapped to the gurney, “look like horrors beyond all human comprehension.” “Biblically-accurate demons on the other hand,” he continued, injecting the lethal cocktail of drugs into my vein, “look just like you and I.”

I always wondered why they hid our food in the dirt. The stones the humans always set on top were a dead give-away.

It’s been 2 days since my pet went missing. When I told the police, a nationwide state of emergency was declared.

She had bought the lamp from the antique shop because of the attractive patterns on the leather lamp shade. It wasn't until she looked more closely at the lamp shade that she realised they were tattoos.

I gave my son “anti-monster spray” in a little bottle, so he would feel safe sleeping alone. I never realized what would happen if he spilled some on himself.

As I lifted my arm I found myself in shock over seeing the amount of blood gushing out of it into a bucket. That’s when an elderly white man in a crisp suit walked into my room and said “Very good. A few more years and you'll have paid off your debt.”

The jolt of my coffin hitting the ocean’s surface woke me seconds before I felt the water seeping in, slowly engulfing my body. Futilely, I tried to push the lid open and as I realised I was chained in, the grim reality hit me — I was sinking, and a vampire can’t drown.

I was born blind but was lucky enough to have a loving mother who took care of my every need. Imagine the betrayal I felt when a stitch slipped and a ray of light hit my eye for the first time.

I asked the Professor why none of the monsters we had documented were intelligent. He said the smart ones convince you they’re human.

“Time of death, 5:02,” the doctor announced. “Now let's bring him back so he can serve his 8th life sentence.”

When I died I always expected to see the pearly gates. But I never expected to see them in such ruinous conditions, as if they’d been abandoned for centuries.

The only reason for me to wake up now was to open my window and see if anything outside has changed. And its always the same thing, the same view, the same unmoving people, the same still animals, the same frozen day, the same clock that's been stuck at 11:37 for years now.

I can't move, breathe, speak or hear and it's so dark all the time. If I knew it would be this lonely, I would have been cremated instead.

When the flood water started to come into the first floor I rushed my family up to the second. When the flood waters reached the second floor I rushed my family into the attic.

My roommate kept stealing my salt, so I replaced it with sugar to teach him a lesson. After I hadn't seen him for 4 days I broke into his room to find a circle of ‘salt’ around his messy bed covered in tiny, caramelized hoofprints.

It had been over four years since she blocked him, when just for a second, she accidentally unblocked his number. Immediately her phone began ringing.

Before he left, I asked the time traveller why he never sought fame or fortune. With a mournful look he replied, “I just wanted air I didn't have to fight for.”
