BLOODCURDLING BOOKS #WSA2023

Setting: An antique store owned by Jeni and Alex.The time is late afternoon.


Emilia walked into the antique store, her eyes wide with wonder as she gazed upon the shelves filled with trinkets and treasures from another time. She had always loved the feel of antique stores, and she had come today to purchase a new comb for her hair.


Jeni greeted Emilia with a warm smile, and Alex nodded his head in acknowledgement. Emilia made her way over to the hair care section of the store, where she began to peruse the combs and brushes. She picked up one comb after another, examining the intricate designs and patterns, until her eyes fell upon a small, leather-bound book with the title "Bloodcurdling Book" etched into the cover.


Without thinking, Emilia reached out and touched the book, and as soon as her fingers brushed against its surface, a chill ran down her spine. She quickly pulled her hand away, but it was too late. The book had already begun to work its dark magic.


Suddenly, the lights in the store flickered, and the air grew cold. Jeni and Alex looked up, their faces filled with concern as they saw Emilia standing frozen in front of the hair care section.


"What's wrong?" Jeni asked, as she walked over to Emilia.


"I don't know," Emilia replied, her voice trembling. "I touched that book over there, and now everything feels...wrong."


Jeni and Alex exchanged a worried glance, and then Alex spoke up. "That book...it's cursed. We've had it in the store for years, but no one's ever been brave enough to touch it before."


Emilia felt a surge of fear wash over her. "What do we do?" she asked.


"We have to get rid of it," Jeni said firmly. "We'll never be able to sell it, and it's too dangerous to keep around."


As they spoke, the lights in the store flickered again, and Emilia could feel a presence growing stronger around her. Suddenly, a voice filled her head, whispering dark and terrifying things that made her want to run away and hide.


"I think it's too late," Emilia whispered, her voice barely audible.


"What do you mean?" Jeni asked, her voice rising in panic.


"I mean that the book...it's already taken hold of me. I can feel it inside me, twisting and turning, like a snake in my belly."


Jeni and Alex exchanged another worried glance, and then Alex spoke up. "We have to destroy it. If we don't, it'll keep spreading its darkness until it consumes everything in its path."


The three of them quickly formulated a plan. They would burn the book, in the hopes that the fire would destroy the curse and break its hold on Emilia. Jeni and Alex quickly gathered up some kindling, while Emilia picked up the book and held it tightly in her hands.


As they stepped outside the store and lit the kindling, Emilia could feel the curse growing stronger within her. She knew that they were running out of time.


The flames quickly grew higher, and then suddenly, the book burst into flames. Emilia watched as it burned, feeling the weight of the curse lifting from her body. For a moment, she thought that everything would be okay.


But then, as the last embers of the fire died away, she heard a voice whispering in her ear. A voice that she recognized all too well.


"I'm not done with you yet," the voice whispered, as Emilia screamed in terror.
