Are we alone?

Hello kittens,   I'm bringing you a story straight from the truth vault. It happened to a friend of a friend of mine....just kidding. This guy is actually my friend, IRL and everything. He is a (gloriously) bearded farmer that lives in a tiny town in the prairies (since Bearded Farmer is probably a little too wordy, let's call him...oh...Mulder). A couple weeks ago, Mulder called me up and told me this story and I just knew that I had to share it with ya'll. I just got off the phone with him, so I'm going to tell it in first person, because I can't write[...]

Writing Bloody- Aliens

Once upon a time, there was a girl. That very girl woke up one night and could see, but not move. She did; however, freak the hell out. She flailed her arms and legs until they finally moved. Then, she did the only thing left to do...check outside to see if the mothership was beaming up any alien life forms. If you haven't figured out yet that it was me...it was. I thought aliens had come to either take me away or implant their spawn in my womb. Being older, I know that there were no aliens that night. With The 5th Wave coming out next week, I can't help but won[...]

A Fearful Introduction

Hey everyone! My name is Jenna J. and I am new around here!!! I am super excited to be a part of The Midnight Society!!! Like, you really don’t understand the depths of my excitement.

THE THING: A Review

Photo courtesy of IMDB I am and forever will be an 80's girl. Between the clothes, the music, and the movies we had it all. We also had...THE THING! Just like every other 80's movie, THE THING begins with rolling credits and cheesy music. And a flying UFO. Lol! THE THING takes place in Antarctica, winter 1982. There are American and a Norwegian camps who are there to explore. The poor Norwegians think they've made the greatest discovery--a UFO. Little do they know, this will be the death of them all. Leave it to the American crew--lead by helicopter pilot, Mac[...]

Disturbing Web Finds #2

My journeys through the www have led me to some truly creeptastic things. My wide-eyedness prompted the first 'Disturbing Web Finds' post, and I'm happy to report, there are many more freaky finds where those came from. Honestly, I'm not sure how I run into these stories. It's totally not on purpose. But since I do, I figure it's only fair that I share the creepay creepay with all of you. I'm gracious like that. You're welcome. :) First, we have this video (which I found on Facebook) of a praying mantis dying. But the thing that made my stomach knot up, flip, cl[...]

Creature Feature: Aliens, Do you believe?

Do you believe in aliens? If you are any part human, you have at least wondered about the existence of extraterrestrial life. Maybe your idea of alien lifeforms are cute and cuddly, ala E.T. Or perhaps something more along the lines of the monster from the movie Alien. Maybe you gravitate toward the idea that other planetary life might simply consist of plants and micro-organisms. Whatever the case, the possibility that a being who is not human could occupy the universe is both intriguing and chilling. This is what makes alien books, movies, and TV shows so inter[...]
