Stitched Saturday: Demons!

Happy Saturday, Stitches!

We are back with our final round of Stitched Saturday for the month of October and it’s just in time for Halloween. As always, I’m your host with the ghosts, the Paranormal Pastor, Ezekiel Kincaid. Our favorite time of year is just around the corner, and I’m sure many of you are already starting to make preparations for the big night. If you’re like me, you’ve already started the Halloween celebration over the weekend and are just going to ride the wave all the way to All Hallow’s Eve.

For this week’s writing prompt we are going with a classic. It’s one that has scared the pants off of us ever since we saw young, innocent Regan on the screen being turned into something vile and putrid in The Exorcist.

Demons.

Yes, the ancient possessor and tormentors of human souls. They seek to destroy all that is good and cause chaos in the lives of the unsuspecting. They are prevalent in most world religions and have been the subject of numerous movies and books. They are truly a staple of the horror genre. So, for this week, I want you to spin me a decadent demonic tale.

Writing Prompt: 500 words max. Draw your inspiration from the picture below (Art by Bahrull Marta). It can be a story of possession, torment, exorcism, etc. It doesn’t matter, as long as it involves a demon. It can be from the first or third person point of view, or from the perspective of the demon. Let those creative minds go to work! Be careful not to conjure up anything while your write! To participate, all you need to do is submit your story in the comments section of this post.

Wishing you all a Happy Halloween,

Zeke
