    Thanks, Danilo. You guys are giving my story a high honor, comparing it to the Rod Serling series. That's an interesting idea, that when they die they'll be transported back to their own time, but I think it would spook more than a few people on the other end.

    Thanks, Tony. It's hard to imagine how any of us would do in a similar situation, but if you follow the old adage 'if you're given lemons, make lemonade', that's what Ben and Caleb decided to do. I'm glad you enjoyed this story.

    That didn't mean they stopped trying to find the portal - they just never located it again. How would you make out if that happened to you? No modern conveniences or technology, your stuck with primitive phone service and silent films, then you get to the early black and white talkies until there is black and white television. Would you be bored out of your skull, or would you try to blend in and make the best of a bad situation? You'd have some advantages, if you paid attention in history classes, and you might get to see special moments of history up close and personal, but could you survive playing board and card games? I'll let each of you answer those questions for yourselves.

    Thanks for the feedback, Mawgrim. You bring up a very valid point about wondering if others had journeyed through that portal prior to Ben and Caleb. It's indeed possible, although we'll probably never know for sure. It's also an interesting thought about the doctor being from the future as well, but that would have changed the flow of the story dramatically. Thanks for sharing.

    It was Halloween, which happened to fall on a Saturday this year. My husband and I decided to take our daily walk after lunch, rather than after dinner, so we’d be home when the trick-or-treaters began to arrive. Fortunately, it was cool enough for us to do it at this time of day, because the days were much cooler now. Ben and I had met after college and got married when I was twenty-six and Ben was a year older. We’ve been happily married for three years now and we took a walk every evenin

    A Path Less Taken

    Bill W posted a story in Fiction

    Ben and Caleb Webster, a married gay couple, go out for a walk on Halloween before the trick-or-treaters arrive. It’s a walk they take every night, but this time they end up in a place they barely recognize. (Halloween story)

    Thanks, flesco. Josh and Jake got to spend time with the boys and Josh has bonded with TJ, so they should be fine when Dion, Trey, and the boys return to school. Don't forget, Jesse has talked to Uncle Steve at Christmas, New Years, and Easter, so he didn't need to fill him in on a lot. He was merely making polite conversation. I'm glad you're looking forward to the next chapter, because there are plenty still to come.

    Thanks, tor, and we're only halfway through my 2020 Halloween offerings.

    Thanks, Tony. I'm glad you like them.
  10. Bill W
    Thank you for the support, Tony. There are three more stories to come.

    Some stories aren't meant to be as scary as horror films, but I'm glad you still enjoyed it.

    It was Halloween and I lived alone, so I’d been keeping an eye out for any trick-or-treaters that would rather play tricks than collect treats. I already had about a dozen groups dressed in costumes ring my doorbell and I happily gave them the treats they were hoping for. I also saw several older kids walking up and down the street, and since they weren’t wearing costumes and didn’t appear to be knocking on any doors or ringing any doorbells, I was afraid they were up to no good. At 9:30, o

    Brian Hayes just finished greeting the last trick-or-treater to come to his house when he decides to go outside to see if anyone pulled any pranks. At that point, he sees two more trick-or-treaters in the distance, and the next thing he remembers is that he’s waking up on the ground two hours later. After coming to, he struggles to learn what had happened during those missing two hours. (Halloween story)

    Chapter 1

    Bill W commented on Bill W's story chapter in Chapter 1

    Danilo, I'm glad you enjoyed this story. These spirits had some issues with how they died, so this was a little different than my other stories. I'm sure you're right about Graham, but I'm not sure if I'm ready to do more than a short story about the paranormal

    City of the Dead

    Bill W commented on Bill W's story chapter in City of the Dead

    Thanks, Danilo. I see you're into my Halloween stories, so this week is going to be right up your alley because I have a few more stories to post. You might want to check out The Naked and the Dead next.
  16. Bill W
    Yes, it makes you wonder how Graham in the Castaway series is able to deal with being able to see ghosts.

    Shifting Horrors

    Bill W commented on Bill W's story chapter in Shifting Horrors

    Yes, these stories are all written for the entertainment value. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    I left my parents and the house I grew up in when I left to attend Cornell University in upstate New York so I could major in math. I only returned home for the major holidays, because I also tutored math at a high school in the same community as the college. I didn’t go home over the summer either, because I enrolled in summer classes and supervised a summer program for ‘at risk’ children. The program was supported by the local recreation department and not only offered arts and crafts, ga

    Adam Cummings returns home after spending four years away at college, two more years at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, and then taking even more time to travel in Europe. At first, he doesn’t run into any of the other students he went to high school with, but when he does, he has some unsettling experiences. (Halloween story)
  20. Bill W
    Yes, the addition of a new baby does seem to lift everyone's spirits - the Curries and the readers.
  21. Bill W
    You never know what professions the boys are going to choose, so you'll have to wait and see. Possibly one of them will turn out to be a chef as well.
  22. Bill W
    Thank you, Danilo, and I'm glad you enjoyed this little tale. I'll be posting another Halloween story each day through Friday, so I hope you enjoy those as well.
  23. Bill W
    Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Thanks, Tony. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Yes, Wyatt is finally happy that his baby brother is home. I'm also glad for the people who have paid family leave, but in the states it's not as common. It depends on the company you work for or the contract of the school district you're employed by. It's not universal, but we're working on it.
