    Saturday the 14th

    Your host today is Count Brapula [WP] During a blackout you light a candle only to discover there's a spirit living in the candle's flame. The spirit is quite charming and offers sage advice, but they're very evasive when asked how they got trapped in the candle. They also REALLY want you to build them a bigger fire. https://www.reddit.com/r/WritingPrompts/comments/725zr1/wp_during_a_blackout_you_light_a_candle_only_to/dng2qeh/ Written By /u/kinpsychosis Read by Katiedead __________ [WP] One by one, someone or something has been murdering the voices in your head. https://www.reddit.com/r/WritingPrompts/comments/74efq7/wp_one_by_one_someone_or_something_has_been/dnxw3fg/ Written by yaq_ Read by BusyKat Check out more of the authors stuff at http://yaqzone.blogspot.com __________ [WP] You're a demon haunting an old home that's been abandoned for years.
